Hello, beautiful people, and welcome to our humble abode, the Thunderdown.

On this Watt Wednesday, December 17, 2025, this sports program begins right now.

Football!

It's magical and we have the incredible opportunity to talk about it every single day.

What a dream life we have. As meaningful

football is happening all around us. The college football playoff starts in just two days.

And don't look now. Wheat 16 of the NFL season starts tomorrow. Let's go to the toxic table.

At Boston, Connor, at Ty Schmidt. Conman, it is something historic happening with this NFL season where we don't know shit about anything at this stage.

Yeah, zero division winners for the first time going into Week 16 since 2016.

It is electric.

Wow, a lot of question marks all over the place, including that NFC North-Thysmith, especially with the injuries that are taking place all around the league.

Yeah, absolutely.

But, you know, hey, we said it. Everything's still out ahead of the Packers. Everything's still out in front of the Bears as well. So what a nice little showdown on a Saturday night. And then tomorrow night, week 16 of the NFL season kicks off in the NFC West, which might be the NFL's best. It might be the NFC beast as the Rams and Seahawks. try to find out who's going to win that division. Now, the other team will be in the playoffs, certainly, because of what the work has already been done. And we're kind of staring down a Vikings Lions situation here, although Vikings Lions last season was the last weekend of the year, where they were trying to decide which was the one seed and who was going to be the five seed but in this particular case it's who's going to win the nfc west which we all think is going to produce potentially the super bowl champion at least the nfc representative let's go to nine year NFL vet darius j butler tomorrow night i am sea hawks so much on the line congrats to Amazon Prime is how we're viewing this one. And congrats to us as football fans. They got a bang. Yeah, we got a banger. We got bangers all weekend long with the primetime games. It should be a big one, two of the best teams in the National Football League. Some superstars out there. I'm seeing Puka do some other things right now. not concerned yet on the field but he's a dynamic receiver. He's going to have to have a huge game without Devante out there. I'm seeing Puka do some other things right now. Not concerned yet on the field,

but he's a dynamic receiver. He's going to have to have huge game without Devonty out there.

He's going to have to continue to have huge games. If he's going to continue to do the things he's doing off the field, which we will certainly tell Oos, like, hey, the louder you get, the better you got to be. And that's just a part of the game. Everybody needs a note. If you're going to start

doing a lot of extracurriculars outside of football, which is certainly going to be very

prevalent. And that's just a part of the game. Everybody needs a note. If you're going to start doing a lot of extracurriculars outside of football,

which is certainly going to be very prevalent to Puka in L.A. With his personality, with who he is, with how good he is at football, with his generation, with his age, with his friends, he's going to have a lot of opportunity to do a lot of things off the field. We would like them to take advantage of all those things, for the good of him, for the good of his family, for the good of his future.

But also, if on the field. We would like them to take advantage of all those things for the good of him, for the good of his family, for the good of his future. But also, if on the field remains great,

it's okay. If on the field slips at all, they will be holding all of this against Puka. And that's just what life is like as a superstar, let alone in the city of stars where they can win a Super Bowl

this year yet again. Oh, yeah, absolutely. They got an MVP favorite pretty much frontrunner with Matt Stafford slinging it.

Great defense. Obviously we expect Devonte to be healthy playoff time. But yeah, they got everything in front of them. And Pook has shown us that ball comes first. He'll keep the main thing, the main thing. So I got faith there. This will be the first ever Thursday night game with two teams of 11 plus wins.
