Shedeur Sanders’ Prank Call: Jerky Boys Weigh In with a Side of Irony
In the grand tradition of questionable life choices, Shedeur Sanders has decided to channel his inner prankster, and the Jerky Boys have served up their own brand of critique. Who doesn’t love a good prank call, right? It’s the modern equivalent of throwing a brick through someone’s window and hoping they laugh about it later. Sanders, known for his prowess on the football field, took a break from touchdowns to dial up a little chaos, but it seems even he can’t escape the judgment of iconic pranksters Johnny Brennan and the Jerky Boys. In an exclusive chat, Brennan laid bare his thoughts, declaring, “We wouldn’t have done it,” which is his way of saying, “Nice try, kid, but you’re not quite there yet.”
The Jerky Boys, the original prank call legends, have made a career out of pushing boundaries and testing the limits of human patience—much like a toddler in a candy store. So when they weigh in on a younger generation’s attempt to keep the prank call tradition alive, you know someone’s about to get roasted. Sanders’ attempt was deemed a bit too “new-age” for their liking, with Brennan suggesting that today’s prank calls often feel more like awkward conversations than the comedic gold they used to achieve. Apparently, the art of prank-calling has devolved into a series of digital misfires and half-hearted attempts at humor.
Is this the best we can do in 2025? One has to wonder if Sanders’ call was less about comedy and more about a desperate need for attention, which is basically the lifeblood of social media today. As Brennan put it, “Just because you can use a phone doesn’t mean you should.” Touché, Johnny. This is a stark reminder that not every prankster can rise to the level of the Jerky Boys, whose genius lies in their uncanny ability to infuriate unsuspecting victims while keeping themselves entertained.
So what’s next for Sanders? Perhaps a masterclass on how to pull off a successful prank call without invoking the wrath of those who paved the way. One can only hope he takes the Jerky Boys’ advice to heart—unless, of course, he’s aiming for the title of “Most Cringeworthy Attempt at Comedy.” We’re all watching, Shedeur.
With that, let’s tune in next time to see if Sanders can redeem himself in the prank call arena or if he’ll continue to provide us with more moments of unintentional hilarity.
