Shownotes Transcript

Tony kicks things off with a Thursday ThUNDER put together by Mike Ryan. Then, Jessica's insubordination leads to Dan taking everyone's phones, Amin gets reckless about Jay Leno's injuries (again), and Dan and the reports of an ESPN staple, Around the Horn, coming to an end and celebrate what the show did for the sports media landscape. Plus, Mina Kimes is here, and before we get to football, we need to examine a photo of Willow with Santa Claus that includes a rather unfortunate angle of...well...Santa's balls. Once we're done with Mina's vivid description, she delivers analysis on the Ravens, Steelers, 49ers, Bengals, Cowboys, Chiefs, Simpsons, Texans, Packers, Chargers, and 'Tommy DeVito, I guess.'
