Transcript of Postgame Show: Scott Van Pelt Responds To Line Skipping Allegations (feat. SVP and JuJu Gotti)

You're listening to DraftKings Network.

Ever since switching to T-Mobile, something weird has been happening. I get to cut lines.

Oh, right this way.

Who, me? I can stream shows at 30,000 feet. And I was able to buy reserve tickets for my favorite band.

It's not just you. With T-Mobile, everyone can get VIP VIP status. That means access to exclusive events and experiences just for being a customer. At T-Mobile, VIP means Y-O-U. Check out the VIP treatment at T-Mobile. Com/benefits.

That's right. It's Thursday Thunder, and it is brought to you by DraftKings. Draftkings, the Crown is yours. Juju Gatti, what do we got today?

Yes, sir. Salute to everybody who got money with us last week on Thursday Thunder. Hit it. We broke the drought, you feel me? Let it rain on America and everywhere that DraftKings are available. You dig me? This week, many men, wish death upon he, blood in his eyes, dogging he couldn't see. He just trying to be who he destined to be, and brothers tried to take his life away. I'm going with the Wolverine, AKA Brian Robinson Jr. Over 9. 5 carries for the first leg.

Juju got beat. Juju got beat one time by half a carry. Half a carry. He had a three-leg parlay, got the first two legs, got 18 carries of an 18. 5 over Parlay, a heartbreaker.

Those vocals are beautiful.

Yes, sir. Thank you so much, Jeremy. We got to collaborate on one of these songs one day. I've been hearing you. You don't have to ask twice, dude.

That's happening.

Yes, sir. Next my brother who's shocking the world, the Riki of the Year, guarantee Jaden Daniels. I'd say he will get over 10. 5 carries against your ESG LSE, Ego. This week.

Thank you. Please, Chris Cody, get that again because we cannot play the sound enough. Do you know what he's referencing there, Greg?

Yeah, somebody, a politician or somebody- The Philadelphia mayor did this.

Let me hear you all say E-L-D-S-E-S.

Ego.

Let's go, Bird.

It's not that tough a word to spell. What's going on?

The pressure gets to you. You just said it yesterday. When you're trying to do these chants, I can relate to this a little bit.

Yeah, you know the way jump situation. The last leg, I'm going to travel. You know what this week? I'm going to go commando all the way this week. You dig me? Tell her I see you. I'm Diami Brown over 44. 5 yards receiving this week against the ESGLES egos. I say, get it done.

Wow. Okay, let's all ride those bets. I'll tell you that. All of them sound great to me. I'm on it.

This is what it sounds like Greg Cody steering the ship.

That was Greg Cody trying to transition and not knowing what to do at the end of the- Those are bets right there.

Yeah, It is an awkward transition.

Greg, why didn't you just speak like a normal human being? I don't know.

I'm a professional broadcaster.

You're just tired at the end of the show.

I'm a professional broadcaster.

It's been two long days we've been riding. What did I just want to ask Juju?

Okay, I need a referendum on today's show, what people loved and didn't love, because when I hear the UFO guy introduced as the most popular guest in the history of the show, I'm going to have to doubt that a little bit.

It's It's just numerical.

When he appears, it triggers something that people go crazy, and the algorithm feeds all of the people who are interested in UFOs, and so it becomes like something that can be quantified.

Yeah, most people are crackpots. What did you learn, Juju, from this guy's appearance?

People do love my brother. At the first time he came on, people call him this, people call him that. But guess what speaks louder than words? Actual intellectuals. My brother just been reporting and reporting all these years, and a lot of the stuff he's been reporting has been ringing true. People have shown their brother a lot of support online.

Greg Cody thought that was a bad guest. You tuned him out because you don't want to hear UFO talk.

He wants to be considered the best guest in show history. He got offended when you called that guy there.

I'm an agnostic when it comes to UFOs. I don't have the avid interest that believers do. But my question for that guy, and I should have asked it, I It's good that we're getting to it now. Yeah, but Juju, maybe you have an opinion. Why is the informed assumption seem to be that UFOs pose a threat or an adversarial relationship?

That's an interesting question to ask Juju out of nowhere. As far as I'm concerned, there are friends that we haven't met yet.

Why is that?

Why are we not more positive about the fact that the aliens aren't coming here to attack us or ransack us? Maybe they just want to time with us listening to sports shows.

I think it's like the movies. We do them a bad job, an injustice in these movies. Independence Day, Man in Black. They always come down with horrible intentions. Like you said, maybe they want to come down to see Patrick Homes play Josh Allen this week. You know what? You never know.

If I see a UFO, if I see a guy with a big giant green head, I'm going to invite him out to lunch. We're going to have a relationship.

My dad and an alien at Billy's Tavern eating some wings.

Why not? Over at Sweet Tomatoes at the buffet. It's on me. Stepping around the candyed broccoli.

Exactly.

I know what agnostic means, but I don't think my brother Jeremy knows what it means.

He's going to start coughing here in a second. Do you have any other... There it is. Do you have any other questions?

Well, here's one. I have to know whether the Ford Tagliabou was the winning poll answer. I have to know that.

Oh, man. Actually, which of these cars would you be most likely to buy? I'm going to read them off. The Volkswagen Bolitnikoff, the Ford Tagliabou, the Chrysler Concepcion, or the Chevy Terrasse. Easy, which were very easy for a brother like me to spell. But 39% of the audience chose the Chevy Terrasse.

That was Stugatz's nominee. Do we have any other critiques here or polls or what else do we want to do? Because, and I want to get to all of this, but Scott Van Pelt has responded, and so I do want to get back to Scott Van Pelt in a second. But finish us off here, Juju, if you don't mind.

Yes, sir. Should we all be so lucky to live Betty White's life? 93% of the audience says, Yes, we should. People know how I feel about Betty. Salute, rest in peace. Who are those 7%?

Who are those 7%? But how about Greg Cody saying that Betty White got around because she had three husbands and dated one other man.

He dated a Cochrane.

That's a compliment.

He was there. We didn't see it. He saw it with his own eyes. There you go, me and Betty. Studio 54. All right.

I bet it, Betty.

All right. People love the polls. Do you have any other? Do you have any other polls? I really don't think you should say that.

All right, edit that out.

Has there ever been a good show with a colon in the title? Wording. 57% of the audience said, No, it has not.

Any critiques on today's show? We have had a bit of a hot streak over the last couple of months where everybody feels pretty good about what we're doing.

Yeah, we We've had some critiques over the last week, this week. There's been some rumblings. People want people to pay their fines, man. So we got to get this fine system down pat now. I think we should start wasting time. I don't know. Send a code out to everybody because I owe $14 myself, and I got it for you. I'm ready to send it, but I don't know where to send it to.

I paid my $7. I paid. We're getting that going.

I paid today. Greg, we are doing this for Venmo. Juju, if you have anything else, I do have some Scott Van Pelt questions for you guys before I call him again because he says that I was calling him at an old number, so it rang on his computer just now. I'm going to refaceTime him now, but do we want to take any bets on how it is that he answers the phone?

Well, Well, he knows you're calling now. It's a totally different thing when you're expecting a call than when it's a random call. We're not going to get a SVP in the Wild the way he would answer. I think he's going to answer with, What's up, Danny?

That's a good one. I say he goes yellow with the hello, but with the Y on the front of it.

I like that. I think he's faux formal, like Mr. Lebatard, that type of thing.

I think he might just give you a yo.

Okay, so I'm not... Should I call him on FaceTime or should I call him? It's easier to put him on speaker if it's not FaceTime.

Yeah, not FaceTime.

You don't need to FaceTime. Just call him, put it on speaker, and make sure it's near the mic so the mic can pick it up.

Okay, so let's do this. All right, let's see what we've got here.

I love the sound of a ring.

This call is presented by DraftKings.

Hello.

Yeah, just a boring hello is all he gave us. What's up, Danny? Hello, Scott.

Nice to talk to you.

It's Dan Levatard. You're on the air, and we have a pressing accusation that you might want to respond to.

Okay.

I'm sorry to do this to you this way. It's unpleasant, but you have been accused publicly by a person in Georgia, you and Matthew Berry, of cutting the TSA line at the national championship game.

Let me tell you something, Dan. There was no line. All there was was mayhem and lawlessness and survival of the fittest. It was kill or be And did we break the line? Allegedly. I popped to all of this on the podcast that we did. We came in. Yes, we did. We came in a door. And where we came in, there were thousands of people, Ohio State, Notre Dame fans, all of whom were incredibly pleasant, by the way. I enjoyed meeting all of them in the three hours we stood the TSA line waiting to get through. Go to the clearer TSA line, they say. Sure. But that's the sheet code. I don't know. No shit. I know where to go. There's nowhere to go. So I'm standing there and there's no one's helping, no red jackets helping. And we look and we said, This isn't going to work. And I'm like, Wait, is this even a line? Let's go down there and see. And so we wandered down towards a different door where if you came in that door, you just blended into the line because there wasn't a line. So that's what we did. And if that's against the law, then I am guilty as strong.

Okay, good talking to you.
