If you've ever stopped at a railway crossing and

0:02

the signals are flashing and you don't see the train,

0:04

or it looks like it's moving slow and you're thinking

0:07

maybe you could get across the tracks before the train

0:09

comes. Think about this. In ten

0:11

alone, two hundred seventy people were killed at

0:13

railroad crossings, two hundred and seventy.

0:16

So stop because trains can't. Wow,

0:29

What is up? Welcome to another

0:31

edition of the NFL Fantasy Live Podcast.

0:33

Its being your band of g Marcus Grant alongside the

0:35

Fantasy Hall of Famer at Michael Fabiano and

0:37

Graham Barfield and uh well,

0:40

happy man. Who's our first may show? Our

0:43

last one was into April, just after the drafts true,

0:45

this is like the time when all the NFL types

0:47

start going on vacations. You get

0:49

your your time off over the

0:51

next two or three months, because before

0:54

we know it, it is going

0:56

to end up going like, you know, zero

0:59

to a tho miles an hour real quick.

1:01

Yeah, I don't know. I don't know about you guys, but this is my favorite

1:04

time of the year, just personally, just because there's nothing

1:06

going on and finally like a little bit of a dead

1:08

zone after the draft. It's nice to get some downtime

1:10

here. Yeah. But then so now, like my allergies

1:12

are killing me so much, and Matthew's

1:15

been sick, and but it is

1:17

what it is. I mean that life so weird. Home

1:19

remedy. I don't know if this really works, are not, But apparently

1:21

if you get local honey, like if you go to like a farmer's

1:23

market and buy honey just like

1:25

you know, mix it in tea or whatever, put it on

1:27

your muffins or whatever. Um, apparently

1:29

that helps with allergies. Heard about that because the I

1:32

guess we have a farmer's market and TV. So I'm

1:34

yeah, I guess, you know, because the bees are are

1:36

you know, using the local flowers and the local pollens

1:38

and so they're so uh take

1:40

that everybody lists Dr Grant take that

1:43

for you know, anybody out there suffering from allergies.

1:45

Try it and if it actually works, let me know, because

1:47

I'm not really sure about that. Uh.

1:50

It is May. So we got

1:52

some kind of fun, silly things to talk about.

1:54

We'll definitely talk Game of Thrones because you know

1:56

that's what's going to happen. Um, but

1:59

just some you know, we got some what's more believable.

2:01

Uh, some questions that I think based

2:03

on some recent NFL headlines that

2:06

uh, you know, maybe or

2:08

maybe not have some merit to them, because this

2:10

is the silly season for the National Football

2:12

League. So we'll talk about that then, uh, you know some

2:15

other things as well. I do want to point and laugh

2:17

at the Bears because their kicker situation has been

2:19

BRIDI It's just it's just been silly.

2:21

So I do want to point and laugh at that at some point later in the

2:23

show. You know what I got Yesterday? I was driving

2:25

back up from Torrance and

2:27

if you if you go up to four or five and then you go

2:29

one or five going towards the beach,

2:32

right, you have a perfect view of

2:34

the new stadium. So I was kind of getting fired up about

2:36

that. Yeah, yeah, yeah, So have you gone up there? I have

2:38

not, but I've seen pictures in the complexes, unbelieving

2:40

I've driven well, I've driven past it a few times because random

2:43

aside, Uh, my girlfriend and I have found

2:45

a really small hole in the wall, champ picking

2:47

food place that's like across the street from there. It's

2:51

not crazy. We're gonna be like working from there in a couple

2:53

of years, like once a week we're like over there, you know,

2:55

getting you know, jerk chicken and stuff. So it's

2:57

great. Um, before we get too

2:59

fur into the show, those always want to go behind the glass

3:02

and talk to our faithful producer, Senior Edward L.

3:04

Murphy Esquire murphy're not wearing a hat today,

3:06

No, the hair is done and uh, less

3:09

about my appearance, more about Europeans that that shirt

3:11

man, Oh yeah knows we can't see it. Yeah,

3:13

that's our stark Michael Jordan's share

3:15

with her doing the famous post

3:18

shout out to the guys that wrote a world. We're putting this out

3:20

away, I should say, with Cat's paw in her hand

3:22

before she does the deed versus the Night King.

3:24

That is, I feel like I feel like today

3:27

Edward and I might get into it a little bit about

3:30

Game of throwne. Okay, we'll have to. That's to tease

3:32

for the end of That's what I just that's a very good teacher. And

3:36

we had a little fun on Twitter. And you want

3:38

to talk about the geekiest Twitter

3:41

conversation in the history of geeky Twitter

3:43

conversations, Darth Vader versus

3:45

Dish that's a great one. I mean, I

3:47

I've been loving the Twitter, like the discourse,

3:50

like people mostly complaining about Twitter one's

3:52

to me, but like I enjoy my followers

3:54

who like to actually contribute and then are like

3:56

Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday recap tweets between

3:58

me and you fabs that those are always on. Um

4:00

so, I mean, strangely enough for

4:02

me, Twitter at least recently has been okay

4:05

and not too means. I

4:07

mean, you're a good looking guy, so I mean you have a girlfriend,

4:10

attractive girlfriend, so you can get away with this geeky

4:12

stuff. For me, I mean, you know I have a girlfriend

4:14

too for a long time, but you know I'm a threat. She might

4:16

leave me after she reads some of that. It's enjoyable

4:18

dating this dark darts vader

4:21

is stronger than Thanos. What no, no

4:22

no, No, we're doing it right. We're keeping Twitter light, We're keeping

4:25

Twitter fun. We're doing a good thing especial again, especially

4:27

in this this NFL dead zone that we're kind of

4:29

in right now. I think that definitely, I'm actually

4:31

watching every Daniel Jones rookie minicamp

4:33

snap, but I can help you're watching all the dump

4:36

buster running back to the fullback. You

4:38

want you want to smile, buddy. Watch the Yankees right now.

4:40

The Triple A Yankees keep winning, dude, Man

4:42

Like, if you need

4:44

help, if you need about to hang out with man, just let me know.

4:47

I don't I don't want you to do this with your life. Please

4:51

don't do this to your life. All right. So

4:54

after all that, that's a whole lot of fun. Um.

4:57

Look, it's been like a little more than a week since we

4:59

lasted a show. It was last Monday. We

5:01

did the early one right after the draft. So there's some things

5:03

that have happened. None of them are all that really

5:06

pressing, because, as I said, is made. But in the meantime,

5:09

let's do some old news,

5:23

all right. There's a couple of things that happened

5:25

in the last week, week and a half that I think

5:27

we're worth mentioning. Both of them are retirements

5:30

guys that we have long since counted

5:32

on in fantasy football

5:34

who are now gone. Jamal Charles

5:37

signed a one day contract. He retires as

5:39

a Kansas City chief Sebastian Janikowski

5:41

calling it quits after nineteen

5:43

NFL seasons. Kicker that was drafted in the

5:45

first round by the Raid the Raiders draft

5:47

him in the first round, everybody sort of laughed into Florida

5:50

State and it it ended up being a really good pick for them for

5:52

a really long time. Um,

5:54

but now we just

5:57

I feel like maybe we should do this for later

5:59

on in in the off season. We should do like one of

6:01

those in memorium things like they have at

6:03

the Oscars. Because so far are this offseason,

6:05

we've lost Jamal Charles uh

6:07

Sebastian Janikowski, Rob

6:10

Rob Gronkowski, most likely Marshawn Lynch.

6:12

I don't think he's made it official yet. But they're not dead.

6:15

Jordy Nelson, Jonathan Stewart, Jeremy

6:17

Macklin, Like for our purposes,

6:19

they're they're gone. They're they're no longer with

6:21

us. Like we need some like you know, soft string music

6:24

and like you know, cp of toned

6:26

highlights of them, right, should

6:28

we like, you know, dude, like they did in Game Thrones and get some

6:30

images of them like laying down on these like you

6:33

know, on these branches and we can light

6:35

them up. We like we light that it. Like I don't

6:37

know, we had a tear something, right, but

6:39

it did make me think, right, so like this

6:41

this group of guys right with with Sea Bass, Jamal

6:43

Charles, Gronk, Marshawn Jordie, Jonathan

6:46

Stewart, Jeremy Macklin. Right, which

6:48

ones are these guys? If we were new to have

6:50

a fantasy scoring Hall of Fame

6:53

or a fantasy scoring Ring of Honor. Um

6:56

Gronks in right, There's no doubt about

6:58

that, Uh, Jamal Charles certainly?

7:01

Yeah? Um, I mean Sea Bass

7:03

is in right because I mean as as far as kickers. See

7:06

again, So here's the question, right, because kickers and

7:08

punters in the actual NFL Hall of Fame had

7:10

a really hard time getting in. We have what

7:12

one punter, I think, Ray Guy, I think is the only

7:14

punter. We only have a handful of kickers. Uh.

7:17

Would Sea Bass make it into our fantasy scoring

7:19

Hall of Fame? Is it based just totally on

7:21

longevity? I mean because he hasn't.

7:24

If it's on longevity, no doubt. Yeah, I mean

7:26

because he's been he's been a part of our lives for so

7:28

long. But I mean for me, I mean I

7:31

certainly don't think kickers matter. No,

7:35

No, I'm I think kickers do matter. But I

7:37

mean, if we had a fantasy

7:40

football Hall of fame, you know how like

7:42

I feel like the kickers that belong in that

7:44

are you know, like the Adam

7:46

Viney Terris is

7:49

probably making himself that just wasn't

7:51

enough good offenses. I don't feel like. So yeah,

7:53

I mean he had a lot of years where he wasn't he

7:55

wasn't early all that fantasy relevance. So okay,

7:58

um because it made me I out of that

8:00

this is going down the list, right like, so Jordy

8:02

Nelson, like in terms

8:04

of the actual Hall of Fame, probably

8:06

not. It's definitely in the fantasy a fame, he's he's

8:09

he's the whole. He only had like like

8:11

what three or four thousand yards seasons,

8:13

Like that's what he wasn't. He wasn't like

8:15

all that great a really

8:17

good run, but like I don't know that

8:20

that run that he did have, the run that he had

8:22

with Rogers from two thousand and ten, two

8:24

thousand eleven to like pretty much the time

8:26

he left as a packer was phenomenal. So yeah, he

8:28

had a thousand yards season in twenty eleven

8:32

and uh got hurt and he had three

8:34

straight from uh sixteen

8:38

and average double digit touchdowns. But I

8:40

mean it's it's four awesome seasons

8:42

enough to get you in the Hall of Fame and fantasy football.

8:45

I don't know for so this

8:47

is what I was thinking, because I thought the same thing with Jonathan

8:49

Stewart too, right, who had a very good career but

8:52

was always sort of paired up with the Angela Williams

8:54

there for a long time in Carolina, and and neither

8:56

one really could never be the lead back because

8:59

they were always sort of sharing. Um.

9:01

But it did make me think, and I feel like, this is the thing

9:03

we can do in the off season and put

9:05

it out to Twitter and Instagram or whatever

9:07

and our followers and kind of like, let's let's crowdsource

9:10

these things. And I feel like we need to create some

9:13

sort of fantasy like ring of honor, right

9:15

like, and I mean, they're obviously guys in the past

9:17

that we know for sure will make it in, you know, the Jerry rice

9:19

Is of the world, the Barry Sanders, LaDainian

9:22

Tomlinsons, those guys certainly make it in.

9:24

But like, going forward, I feel like we need

9:26

to and this is the time of year to do it because what

9:28

else do we have to do around here? Um,

9:31

Like we and I don't know, I'm still

9:33

like, I'm kind of talking out loud and thinking this through.

9:35

But I mean, is this something you guys are down

9:37

like we we should create a fantasy ring of honor. This would

9:40

be fun too for like random waiver

9:42

wire players that like, we're only relevant

9:44

in our lives for like a couple of weeks, but they Sam

9:46

Kin got out Jonas Great, It's

9:49

like you gets a

9:51

honorable mention or something. Yeah, I was just

9:53

thinking of obscure players that have gone

9:55

off in like weeks one and two and then just gone

9:57

on to do nothing the rest of the season. There's that.

10:00

I mean right now, Carlos Hide is like a week one

10:02

Hall of Famer. I mean that guy like in his

10:04

career is week ones have been phenomenal and

10:06

then he just sort of tails off the rest of the year.

10:08

But um so I am. I'm

10:10

gonna work on this, right, I'm gonna come up like and and maybe

10:13

every week or every couple of weeks we all bring somebody

10:15

to the table that we nominate and then like we'll put it

10:17

out on Twitter, right, We'll put a vote to a poll. I'm

10:19

like, hey, uh, you know, is this somebody

10:21

who does this person belong in our Ring of honors.

10:23

Let me give you you remember Herman Moore, I

10:26

do see a Hall of Famer is

10:31

No, he's not. And he basically had

10:33

the same He had four good seasons just like Geordy.

10:36

Yeah, but the differences. Geordie was the receiver

10:39

two or three and three of those four seasons, I mean

10:41

he was a top But Herman Moore had one

10:43

season I think where he was like top

10:45

three, if not number one. But I say, well,

10:47

I mean and again and and now we start

10:49

comparing eras because you know, the

10:52

era of Herman

10:55

Moore, they didn't throw the ball quite as much as

10:57

they did, you know, when Geordie was kind of having his heyday,

10:59

the league at kind of transform. I mean, Herman Moore playing

11:01

on teams with Barry Sanders where he was the focal point

11:03

of the offense and he still put up numbers. Um.

11:06

I'm also old enough to remember Herman more in Virginia,

11:08

so so am I. But

11:12

Herman Morris quarterback that year? Come

11:15

on, what's Scott Mitchell? Scott freaking

11:18

Mitchell, who who were supposed

11:20

to be like the Savior of Detroit after

11:23

having like what one good

11:25

year in Miami? Oh yeah, pretty

11:27

much pretty much right and

11:29

didn't work out. He had one big fantasy season

11:32

that was it. That was kind of and that was it. So

11:35

alright, so here we go. We're we're going to do

11:37

this. I have just decided because you know

11:39

it's May and we you know, we got a field time.

11:41

But dare you make executive I'm making an

11:43

executive decision here? Um,

11:46

we are going to I

11:49

don't know, we'll figure this out, whether we open up

11:51

the nomination process to you all out there on

11:53

social media, whether or not we just do it ourselves

11:55

and have you guys vote. Whatever. We're going to do something

11:57

this offseason and make it interactive, and we're going

12:00

to build or start building

12:02

a fantasy Hall of Fame or Ring of Honor,

12:04

whatever you guys want to call it. Will come up with some other

12:06

crazy name of our own for it, but it's to

12:09

do something that's gonna be fun. I know

12:11

that. You know we'll never ever get through everybody because

12:13

you know, look, the NFL is starting. It's one season,

12:16

so it means a lot of guys have played, so

12:19

we'll never get through all of it. But if we can start putting something

12:21

together, I think it'll be fun. So

12:23

there you go, and that's pretty much everything

12:25

you probably already knew.

12:40

All right, So we are here in the time of year

12:42

where you know, we get a lot of smoke screens,

12:45

right, We've just gone from like rookie camps, and

12:47

you hear all these things about some of these new guys

12:49

that are doing great or supposed to be, uh

12:51

you know, the next big thing, or other guys that

12:54

you know are are trying to figure

12:56

out their their situation for the years. So

12:58

I decided to come up with a little game called

13:00

What's more Believable? I got four different

13:03

categories, uh and uh,

13:06

I have a question and so we can discuss it. We

13:08

figure out what you think, which of these two scenarios

13:10

you think is more believable? So,

13:13

uh so, fabs, let's start with you that I got the

13:15

four categories. Category one is horse races.

13:17

Category two throw up the X. Category

13:20

three is business ventures. In category four

13:22

is all I do is win. So you can pick one,

13:25

Okay, well,

13:27

as a Dallas Cowboys fan, you're

13:30

gonna have to go up to throw up the X because that's you know,

13:32

okay, all right, So

13:35

what's more believable? Dark

13:37

Phoenix, uh starring everyone's

13:40

favorite, uh West Rossie

13:44

Sophie Turner, who just got married, Like she

13:46

she got married to like one of the Jonas brothers at

13:48

a Vegas wedding chapel

13:51

with an Elvis impersonator as thet

13:54

She was also like chucking a glass of wine like at a New York

13:56

Rangers game. But if you have that much money, would you really

13:58

go to Vegas and get married? Yeah?

14:02

Uh so. Dark Phoenix, which recently

14:04

had some reshoots the apparently the climactic

14:06

scene has been changed from being in

14:08

outer space to being on a train.

14:11

Everybody's sort of worried about what this is gonna

14:13

mean for the movie. Will it be a fitting

14:15

into the X Men franchise before Marvel

14:17

completely takes it over, or well,

14:20

that's Bryant play in the NFL. It's nineteen

14:24

What do you believe more that that Dark Phoenix is actually be

14:26

good? Or that does Bryant will play in the NFL

14:28

this year? This is coming off really

14:31

serious. Engine and Achilles Sayre, which

14:33

you know he signed with the Saints and basically two days

14:35

later towards Achilles, but he did post

14:38

on Instagram that he's running routes now

14:40

and has come back hopefully, at least, according to him,

14:42

hopefully begins now so Dez comes back

14:44

and plays in twenty nineteen, or or

14:46

Dark Dark Phoenix is Actually good, which actually comes out in a

14:48

few weeks. I believe. I'm gonna

14:51

say Dark Phoenix is actually good. Wow,

14:54

I like that character. It's

14:57

Jean Gray, who basically did Morphs into

14:59

the darkn Right, um

15:01

wow, So you so you're just you're but

15:04

I I like the X Men movies, Okay,

15:07

So I mean, like there, I don't think there's one

15:09

that I've been like disappointed

15:11

in. All right, I've liked. I've liked just about

15:13

every one of them. So then when Marvel inevitably

15:15

reboots them years from now, will you will

15:17

you go see those? Yeah? Oh yeah, listen,

15:20

man, you know, if it's if

15:22

it's Marvel typically I'm going to see it. Even

15:24

if it's you know, they're bringing the X Men franchise, I'm still

15:26

gonna go see it. As an outside voice on this, on this so,

15:28

I know you're not a you're not a big comic book fan. I'm

15:30

not, but I understand it. Marvel is taking over the world.

15:33

I'm fully convinced there at this point.

15:35

There have you seen Avengers have Yes,

15:38

you haven't seen it. Okay, we can't talk about it. Well, I don't know

15:40

that the Grandpather telling he's in a hurry to go see it

15:42

either. So yeah, it's not

15:44

for me, but I mean it's I mean obviously

15:47

humongous franchise. Not everything has to be

15:49

for everyone. Um okay,

15:51

So then are we thinking

15:53

that des is done? Is?

15:55

Have we seen the la does Briant in an NFL?

15:58

It took it took a lot for Is to

16:00

even get signed on with the Saints

16:02

last season. At one point, we didn't know that he was going

16:04

to be uh playing football in

16:06

a never he never he never actually got

16:08

on the gridiron, and he got hurt. Um.

16:11

As much as I loved him as a cowboy and

16:13

as much as I'll always remember

16:16

the connection he had with Tony Romo and the catch

16:18

that was a catch that wasn't a catch that should have been a catch

16:20

at the NFL said, is now a catch that

16:22

could have left us to

16:25

the super ball in my fantasy

16:27

world? Um, I

16:30

don't know, man. I mean, an older wide receiver

16:32

coming off of that sort of injury,

16:35

with all the talented young wide

16:37

receivers, that just came out in the draft, I mean,

16:39

and are cheap. I know that the thought

16:42

was last year that if he was going to go anywhere,

16:44

the Saints seemed to kind of be a good spot because

16:46

he didn't have to take on the pressure of being

16:48

you know, they had Michael Thomas and they had other options,

16:51

so he could have kind of slid in there and

16:53

at least been a little bit productive. But obviously the

16:55

injury kind of the rail that whole. I do wonder if he comes

16:57

back, because DT obviously just came back

16:59

and he he's coming off his second PopEd Achilles.

17:02

But does is I mean, does do with a

17:04

foot issue that was clearly slowing him down

17:06

and down years ago. He's definitely

17:08

in the fantasy Alli fan, by the way, does absolutely

17:11

all the touchdowns he scored, Absolutely, that's true. He was

17:13

a touchdown machine. Absolutely, he was a touchdown

17:15

machine for a while. All Right, all right,

17:17

Graham, So the three letter left horse races business

17:20

ventures, and all I do is win, give me the

17:22

business ventures business ventures. All right,

17:25

let's see what's more believable. Jake

17:28

Cutler has announced

17:30

on his show, well, I guess that his show, his wife's

17:33

show very Cavalier, which, by the way, so aside,

17:37

it's a thing that I, you know, occasionally have to see that's

17:39

on in my house. I don't necessarily love it, but I would say watching

17:41

it has made me love Jay Cutler even more because

17:44

he seems as disinterested in being on the show

17:46

as I am and watching it.

17:47

So does that mean and your girlfriend watches

17:50

it and you kind of are along front ride and she doesn't

17:52

watch it regularly, but it's one of those things where if she's flipping

17:54

by and it's all and she'll stop and watch a few minutes. And So

17:56

I've seen Cutler on there and he really just he

17:58

doesn't care. He just really disinterested.

18:01

But I guess he made an announcement

18:03

on the show that he's going to

18:05

open a butcher's shop. It's been an idea that

18:07

he's been, you know, kind of working on for a while, put

18:09

it on the back burner. Now he in a pal are going to

18:11

open a butcher's shop. So what

18:14

is more believable, Jay Cutler

18:16

as a butcher wide apron you know, clever

18:19

and all, or the

18:22

Steelers possibly going running

18:24

back by committee next season. Jay

18:27

Cutler the

18:29

Steelers. Now I'm just

18:31

thinking about Jay Cutler wielding a like

18:33

humongous butcher's not for those humongous

18:36

butchers like clever and like those

18:38

big saus that cows

18:42

that. I mean, Jay Cutler seems like a flight risk for

18:44

that. I don't think he should

18:46

be able to do that. Has has those

18:48

rumors though? Have those rumors

18:50

sort of derail your enthusiasm

18:53

when it comes to Connor? No, I

18:56

mean Tom has always been like a one running one

18:59

dude. I mean they even

19:01

even when it got really dire a couple of years

19:03

ago in the playoffs. I mean they played fifth Gerald Tucson

19:05

just like like as a Bell cow back

19:07

in the playoffs. I mean, did you I think believe I believed

19:10

D'Angel Wi Williams got hurt in that game and Bell has already

19:12

hurt. But anyway, um, yeah, this team

19:14

Steelers, they've always always had one

19:16

running back on the field. Yeah,

19:18

I mean, so they've got the

19:21

names. James Conner is obviously

19:23

the the lead back. We saw Jalen

19:25

Samuel. Of course, we already the great

19:27

Jalen Samuel's Fantasy Position Awards

19:30

of last year. I

19:32

had forgotten about that. You're welcome. And

19:34

then they draft Benny Snell, who,

19:36

again, according to some of these training camp

19:39

smoke screen stories, you know, is doing

19:41

good work and they want him to have a role and whatever.

19:44

Uh. And I know that the Steelers

19:46

general manager Kevin Colbert has said that

19:49

he could envision a

19:51

committee situation, but I guess it's not totally

19:53

up to him. And when it's all said and done, it's

19:56

may. These gms and coaches

19:58

kind of make hilarious

20:00

I think playing time prognostications,

20:03

and this seems to be one of them.

20:05

All right, So so will Jay

20:07

Cutler is a butcher's Uh that that's

20:09

what's the end of the butcher shop? I don't know, well,

20:12

cler Cutler, I mean the cut

20:14

cuts, Cutler's cuts, I don't know. Sorry

20:17

that that reminds me of a of a joke that is, if

20:20

you have children and it's sure to

20:22

just knock them over laughing because Matthew

20:24

had this. The joke is, um,

20:28

what happened to the butcher?

20:30

Oh? Wait? What was it? Not? See now now

20:33

I'm like trying to like now I'm trying to remember

20:35

the joke. It was like, um,

20:38

oh, what happened to the butcher who backed into his meat

20:40

grinder? Oh? I don't

20:42

know, he got a little behind in his work. Kids

20:47

like first. But the kids, that's

20:50

a great dad joke. I love it. I

20:52

love that. It's

20:54

pretty good. Right, I'm gonna remember that pretty

20:56

good. That's pretty good. I like that. Oh

20:59

I got a little bit hind in his work alright, and

21:02

even got to chuck a lot of Graham. Okay,

21:04

So we're down to two categories left. So fab did

21:07

is back to you? We've got horse

21:09

races and all I do is win um

21:12

horse races because of the Kentucky Derby badness

21:15

there you does. So what's more believable? Maximum

21:18

Security? Had the horse not been d

21:20

cute at the end of the Kentucky Derby,

21:23

uh, because until then the horse was

21:25

four for four and races looked like it was going to be five for

21:27

five. Didn't happen. So if if it wasn't the

21:29

cute, maximum Security could have won the Triple

21:31

Crown this year. Or the

21:34

Broncos in their own little horse race, their

21:36

quarterback search ends with Drew Lock ends

21:40

with Drew Lock as and Drew lock is the starter

21:42

comes maybe not even this year, but at least

21:45

like he becomes the franchise quarterback

21:47

and Drew Lock is is the guy

21:49

in denver'se say for the next decade.

21:51

Let see, neither one

21:53

of them is would have been very likely because how

21:55

often a triple crowns happen

21:58

years? But I mean for the most part, that doesn't.

22:01

It doesn't happen often. No, it

22:03

doesn't. Um, it is not. But then you're

22:05

making me put faith in John always

22:09

r back position. I guess I'll

22:11

go Drew Lock. Okay, I'll

22:13

go Drew Lock. Does

22:15

Drew Lock eventually start this season?

22:18

Yes? Yeah, I see, I don't think so. I

22:20

think so unless Flacco is not

22:22

like a durable dude anymore. Yeah, and if he

22:24

plays extremely poorly, which he's very liable

22:27

to do. But yeah,

22:29

I mean, I don't know. Man. You know, the Broncos a playoff

22:31

contender. I mean, their defense is good,

22:33

but it is there. They're they're a fake contender.

22:36

There'll be a favor especially in the

22:38

so halfway through the season, the fans are going to

22:40

be clamoring for Lock. The a f C is loaded, and

22:42

they're they're a very competitive division.

22:44

On top of the two, I mean, the Chiefs are

22:46

still going to be very good. The Chargers are a good

22:48

team, Um, it's just a it's tough

22:50

division to get through the f C as a whole. I mean,

22:53

I think the FC South will I mean, I know people

22:55

hate on the Titans and Jaguars every here, but both

22:57

teams I think are wild card type team.

22:59

You're gonna be better. The better the culture

23:01

very good. The North it's very good. The East

23:04

you know will be ran by the Patriots, but the Jets are

23:06

fun. Uh's a really tough this year.

23:08

So alright, okay, so the last one

23:10

Graham does do you you get stuck with All

23:13

I do is win? So what's

23:15

more believable? Raining

23:17

Jeopardy champion James Holdshower, who

23:19

has just just wrecked the game, completely

23:22

broken the game, just really just broken the game. In fact,

23:24

I read an article that people were worried that he might bankrupt

23:26

the show because he's winning. So dream

23:29

shows only have so much in the prize budget

23:31

that they allocate. Um uh,

23:33

and you know he's winning. He's winning like six

23:36

figures at night basically, So

23:38

what's more believable? James holds

23:40

Howard gets to a hundred wins,

23:42

keeping in mind that Ken Jennings got to seventy

23:44

four, which is the all time record he gets

23:47

two hundred wins or Kyler

23:49

Murray starts this season behind Brett Huntley.

23:55

Definitely the the guy's

23:57

gonna keep winning on Jeff, I

24:00

mean krit Cliff Kingsbury like put that statement

24:02

out the other day that hey, you know it's it's not a given

24:04

that Kyler Murray's we still have Bred Hundley.

24:06

This is why you don't listen to coaches and or

24:09

definitely frankly, ever, um, how

24:12

many wins is he up to now? Twenty two?

24:14

He's he's got a while, he's gonna have to go,

24:16

but it's just he's winning money in buckets?

24:19

Right? How much money did Ken Ken Jennings when we got

24:21

to seventy four? Uh, you know what, it

24:23

wasn't anything near that much because I think

24:25

he was basically winning like what

24:28

you consider average pots, you know, on

24:31

Jeopardy. I pulled it up on time. Apparently they

24:33

have an article he won a little over

24:35

two and a half million dollars, which is still fantastic.

24:37

It's a little over two and a half million. Um

24:40

wow. Yeah. And and right now

24:42

I looked at up Pole Tower is already

24:44

oh, he's over a million and a half right

24:47

now. Um, they have

24:49

a Jeopardy tracker for him. He is at one

24:51

point six almost one point seven million

24:53

dollars after twenty two

24:56

wins, and he actually has the week off. I think this is like

24:58

teachers week on Jeopardy. So he's kind

25:01

of he's got a bye week right now. He's going

25:03

he's going to go home and and study, study up.

25:05

He's on a bye this week until he can get

25:07

ready. But one point seven million

25:09

dollars on two in

25:11

a row. Uh, and it's just he's

25:14

just wrecked at the game. I mean, he comes out, he starts

25:16

for the biggest numbers, he doubles up on every

25:19

daily double um, dudes,

25:21

insane. I saw him compare himself to Shaun

25:23

Watson. Yes, funny on Twitter. I did see

25:25

that. That was great. I don't know, I didn't understand

25:27

it, but whatever. I basically think he said

25:29

that, like Deshaun Watson can

25:31

can perform very much in any situation, pretty

25:34

much any circumstance you put him in, he can find a way

25:36

to succeed. And that's that's kind of how he is to on

25:39

Jeopardy. On Jeopardy, right,

25:41

I mean like saying zero athletic, Hey

25:44

man, you gotta push that button real quick. Yeah,

25:46

trusting everybody else whatever.

25:49

Okay, So, so nobody's believing that that Kyler

25:52

Murray's gonna sit behind Brett Huntley.

25:56

Do I really have to even? I mean,

25:59

I would say this because I saw that, and I think

26:01

I think everybody just sort of laughing. It's just one of those

26:03

things where you just you know, it was reported

26:05

because it was a thing that that Cliff Kingsbury

26:07

said, but I don't know that anybody is actually

26:10

buying it not do it. Yeah, so there you

26:12

go. Uh so there you go. What's more believable.

26:14

We'll do a few more of these in the offseason because we're gonna have I'm

26:16

sure more enjoyed those. Yeah, that was good.

26:18

So um, before we

26:20

get to the game of Throne stuff, the

26:23

Bears, if you haven't been paying attention, have

26:26

been trying to find a kicker. Uh

26:29

yeah, right, I know it happened after Cody

26:32

Parkey's double doink last year and the

26:34

playoffs he was released.

26:36

Uh. They tried to make a play for Robbie Gold,

26:39

who said he wanted out of San Francisco, but

26:41

that fell through. They had an eight

26:44

man battle royal. I

26:46

mean It's like, was it like not one of them

26:48

hit a forty three yard or something like that, something like that. They all

26:50

struggled to make a forty three yard or but it was like, you

26:52

know, it was like you

26:54

know, if if if Vince McMahon

26:56

had a fever dream for Royal Rumble or something

26:59

like that. Right, it was at uh And now

27:01

they finally made a trade Freddie Pannero, who

27:05

I saw an Instagram video he kicked an eighty yard

27:07

or in practice. Now again it's

27:10

in the Florida humidity and it's probably

27:12

really hot and there's no fans looking. But as Alan

27:14

Iverson would say talking

27:16

about practice still, I was like, but they

27:20

trade for Panero from

27:22

the Raiders. Uh, it's not quite as blockbuster

27:25

as the Khalil macdeal. Uh. They get

27:27

a conditional seventh

27:30

round draft pick. I mean that's

27:33

less than that's less than like a bag of

27:35

footballs, like the Raiders could have just sent over a bag

27:37

of foot Is the world really that devoid of Imagine

27:41

telling your parents that, right, mom, I've

27:43

been traded to the Bears for

27:46

one seventh round conditional

27:48

conditional conraditional seventh round big

27:52

So I mean, so

27:54

hopefully this solves their problems. I just think,

27:56

you know, I mean, I know that the

27:59

people don't necessarily get down with kickers. I know that's

28:01

the whole big you know, talkie point or whatever. But

28:03

for now they're still in the game. Uh

28:05

they should have kept Robbie good as gold. I

28:07

don't know why you let him go in the first point and he didn't want to like

28:09

stay in San Francisco. Apparently no, and

28:11

so it's all fallen apart. Uh you know this

28:14

is this is gonna be I think an interesting thing to watch

28:16

is we get into training camp to see how Panaro does,

28:18

Like I will, I can't imagine what

28:21

short of who's the

28:23

guy the Bucks drafted in the first round a couple of years

28:25

Roberto, right,

28:27

Like this is he's gonna have like a Guayo level

28:30

pressure on him, right, because you know, the Bears

28:33

have gone to the ends of the earth

28:35

to try to find a kicker, and uh so now

28:37

the well, the Bucks spent a second round pick Roberto.

28:40

This is true, This is true. And didn't

28:42

the Bucks didn't they draft Maca? I

28:46

believe they did. They didn't have another kicker, right, I

28:48

believe I believe they drafted a kicker was in the

28:50

fifth round this time. It wasn't a second rounder,

28:52

but they drafted a kicker. Yeah they

28:54

I think they learned their lesson about second round kick, hadn't

28:56

they signed Cairo Santos. Uh, they

28:58

went through a lot of kickers. Burt

29:01

Acquire was also on the bars for a short period of time

29:03

last year. Wow. Wow,

29:05

they've been through everything. See, I mean, small kicking

29:07

world. It's a small kicking right

29:09

And actually, I mean

29:12

look, I feel like this adds credence to Sebastian

29:14

Janikowski making it into our fantasy Ring of

29:16

Honor just because he was a first round pick that sort

29:18

of lived up to his first round pick. Billy

29:21

m M. I guess all

29:23

right, that's enough kicker talk. All

29:26

right, let's get to the rail show now. It's

29:28

okay. So are we a spoiler alert? If you haven't

29:31

watched, if you don't watch a Game of Throne yet, well

29:33

then what the hell are you waiting? I'm gonna

29:35

put my coffee cup here front and center as

29:37

we start talking about this. Do you think that the winner

29:40

fell? Starbucks has WiFi? Think

29:45

you just have a three eyed raven sitting in the car. You

29:48

need to know. My question. My first question

29:50

is that what because so if

29:52

you haven't seen what you probably have if you've been on

29:54

social media. There was a Starbucks cup, uh,

29:57

sitting on a table in a scene in the

30:00

most recent episode called The Last of the Starks.

30:03

After the fact, HBO went through and I guess they

30:05

digitally scrubbed it out, So if you go back and watch it

30:07

now, it's not in there anymore. Now

30:09

people have apparently, yeah, people have apparently

30:12

linked the cup to Sophie

30:14

Turner. They said there were some behind the scenes

30:16

shots where she was drinking out of a Starbucks

30:19

cup earlier for that

30:21

episode, and then it ended up on the

30:23

table. Obviously nobody caught it whatever,

30:25

so that might that That begs the question for me

30:28

is what the Santa order

30:30

from Starbucks? If you say anything other than pumpkin spice

30:33

latte, I'm gonna tell you that you're wrong. That would

30:35

be my guest. Any form of latte, any

30:38

form of latte. Um.

30:40

Yeah, okay, So that's for the episode itself. I

30:43

feel like we are all sort of kind of a different

30:45

minds about this because Eddie, you actually

30:47

you you really liked this EPI. I'm all over the place I

30:50

I liked it, you liked it, but

30:52

on Twitter you gave like on her reasons

30:54

why it sucked. Yeah, but I

30:56

think, unfortunately that's kind of what the season is. I think I

30:58

think that's been that's kind of been Eddie. There's a lot of

31:00

flaws his credit. He's been consistent about

31:02

that this season though. And I'll be the first to

31:04

admit I got way and well again, I'm

31:06

a book reader. I got way like deep

31:09

with the theories, and I want certain things

31:11

to be paid off in the way that I want them

31:13

to, in the way that other book readers and like Reddit users

31:15

want. And then when it doesn't go the way that we think,

31:18

we automatically criticize, like lazy writing

31:20

and because of the lack of source material, and

31:22

it's a little too Hollywood, a little

31:24

too much of like fan service,

31:27

and I think I have an issue with that. That being said,

31:29

yes, there were issues with the last episode, but I

31:31

did find some of it to be a

31:34

true Game of Thrones episode, with you

31:36

know, Sarahcy being a version

31:38

of herself like that, you know, the craziest,

31:40

most pure villain in the show. You have

31:43

conflicts arising between John and Danny,

31:45

of cons between Tiing Tirian and

31:47

varis Um, Like there's there's

31:49

just there, there's story arcs that are ending. So I

31:51

thought there was enough good in the episode, but I

31:53

still had a lot of issues with uh certain

31:56

things. I felt

31:58

like the the beginning of it kind

32:00

of dragged a little bit with everybody

32:02

just you know, it was drinking

32:05

right, like it should have just if they were gonna do that. I get

32:08

it, like you just had this big battle and everybody's celebrating

32:10

afterwards that we should have just done like a quick version

32:12

of like yub Nub from you know, Return of the Jedi.

32:14

We have a little singing, a little dancing, and then we move on to the next

32:17

thing, like it went on for way too long.

32:19

I think that's my only real gripe with the episode, because

32:21

I'm with Eddie. I liked a lot of the

32:24

different plat points um throughout

32:26

the whole show. I mean, I I think

32:28

people have wisely kind of made

32:30

fun of Denarius for being on dragons

32:33

and not seeing the you know, the Royal fleet

32:35

coming you know at her I think that's a fair point

32:37

um, and that might be a small storytelling

32:40

issue, but by and large, outside of the very slow

32:42

beginning of the fourth episode. I loved pretty much

32:44

everything about it. I've got I've got a list

32:46

of ten gripes, Eddie.

32:52

Okay, first one, everything is going too fast. It's

32:54

going too fast. Give us ten episodes

32:56

for crime which it's going to freaking

32:58

fast. HBO said they could have done as long

33:00

as they wanted, and the two Fair writers,

33:02

DPI and David Benny stuff, we only need six

33:04

so you can play. Yeah they should, because I

33:06

felt like they went really

33:09

slow with this, you know, post battle scene,

33:12

and then they rushed into the next war like the next fight,

33:14

and I'm like, oh wait, slow down, hold

33:16

on right, okay, um, next up?

33:18

How in the hell do we not see the reaction of Rin

33:20

Stands to John not being that Sun should have been

33:22

like stupid, stupid.

33:25

Yeah, that's that's that's that's a big moment. That's Fair.

33:28

That's a big moment. Okay.

33:30

We all love Ghost and John, just you

33:34

don't pet him, you don't hug him. The damned

33:36

dog or wolf whatever it is, it's got an ear missing.

33:39

He is like he is like your childhood

33:41

pal and you just send him off.

33:43

I don't think this is the last we've seen of Ghost or Torment

33:46

that but they said I read somewhere that HBO

33:49

said, well, because ghost is digital. Uh,

33:51

you know, it was hard. You gotta gigantic guess

33:54

budget. You left a Starbucks cup on the

33:56

damn table put in a scene

33:58

where Ghost and John say goodbye to each

34:00

other. They said that it's apparently cheaper

34:02

to make the dragons

34:04

they've got.

34:07

That's what I read. Is is like it's

34:09

half a million an episode to put Ghost

34:12

in. But I still, I still don't think this is

34:14

the last we've seen a Ghost or Torment, Right, Okay,

34:16

so there's my next point. And Eddie and I got into this

34:18

on Twitter a little bit. Why would Torment

34:21

leave John when

34:23

he has what you could argue is

34:25

an even biggle bigger battle ahead with

34:27

an army that's been cut in half by by

34:29

the Whites, Like why would he not follow

34:31

him? Like is he going to melt in this? It's

34:34

it's it is

34:35

not. I

34:39

would I wouldn't. I wouldn't turn my back on

34:41

my best friend, my good friend. It

34:43

was a stretch for them to go south of the wall.

34:45

Why because he had to be convinced

34:47

really hard to go south of the wall In the first place,

34:50

and he only did it because the White Walkers

34:52

were coming exactly, and that the free folk of have

34:55

suffered enormous loss throughout fighting

34:57

John's different various battles. Really beside the daughter

34:59

or they probably got the worst, absolutely

35:02

right, right, absolutely so. I mean I still find

35:04

it a weird day we're done with. It's the same thing that I

35:06

don't think. I don't think we are. No one from Dorn

35:09

would go north like Dorne stays

35:11

in Dorn. The Wildings, the Freebok

35:13

all gonna stay as far north as they possible. You do,

35:15

you don't think because of the the this

35:17

is like an enormous battle that's

35:20

going to determine. They don't

35:22

have a ruler, they don't care, but I wouldn't

35:24

they rather see their guy. I think it's back to Marcus

35:26

point every we will see him

35:28

again. I would think not an

35:31

episode five, but an episode of the final episode. Okay,

35:33

something I saw, I think you tweeted it or retweeted

35:35

it. Dragons are not supposed to be that hard, that easy

35:38

to kill. George R. Martin's on record saying that

35:40

if full grown adult dragon is nearly

35:42

impossible to kill, so like all of a sudden

35:44

like and you're on you know, this guy is like

35:46

you know, I mean, I guess he's I

35:48

guess he's a great warrior. But this

35:50

this this giant scorpion to it that you've

35:52

never used in their entire life. Suddenly you're you're

35:54

freaking Patrick Mahomes back there throwing

35:57

guards at it. And there was

35:59

like I beg there was a big rock to like Danny's

36:02

didn't see that, But I don't know, I didn't

36:04

that, which come to my point,

36:07

the nearest targarian is Jeff

36:09

Fisher. Proved me wrong. She

36:11

has done less with more talent

36:14

than anybody we have seen in West.

36:16

I mean, she's got she has a huge army, she's

36:18

got all this talent. She has dragons. She's

36:20

lost two dragons,

36:21

that's them. That's a huge

36:23

flaw. I don't get what's it going in from the last

36:26

season to this one. When she's coming across the water

36:28

and she finally gets there, she has the biggest

36:30

army, the fiercest army. She has three full

36:32

grown dragons, and now she's like in

36:34

this decimated army with like no dragons.

36:36

And the writers said that she didn't see your on

36:38

that's like half of the

36:42

books. He's more of a magic being and he could

36:44

kind of sneak up on you, So they kind of use

36:46

that as an illusion thing. But like she would be so high

36:49

up and there's just no way that the scorpion

36:51

would be able to pierce the dragon skin. You have to essentially

36:54

to kill hidden through the eye. Okay, So

36:56

so here's so here's what I think might happen in

36:58

the next episode. Right. Do you that the

37:00

trailer that they had for the next episode very short,

37:02

but you see like ur On looking into the sky, like

37:04

whoa do you think they fit the

37:06

last final dragon with so armor?

37:08

Maybe every

37:11

thing. They're gonna make Dron stronger

37:13

than Regal and and it will there'll

37:15

be a scene where like the Scorpion will try to hit it and will

37:17

bounce off something. I think I think they're gonna make

37:19

it. That one seemed more because it is a bigger dragon.

37:22

It's her dragon. They might make that one more

37:24

invincible. I I think she's gonna

37:26

like wreck shop with dragon versus

37:28

the Uron's um navy

37:31

naval fleet. But I mean that it

37:34

was that was that seen. That's scene probably bothered

37:36

me the most out of any scene because I don't care about getting

37:38

rid of a dragon. If it happens whatever, it's

37:40

a show. It's not the same as the books. The fashion

37:43

that they did it to me, it was a little weird.

37:46

Um, I think just because it was so abrupt,

37:49

right, My biggest scrape I think

37:51

with the show overall, Um,

37:54

we didn't get enough build up of Uran's character because

37:56

in the books he is

37:58

actually a fearful like a

38:00

character we need to be fearful. He's a big,

38:02

a big threat, and he was just he was just kind of throwing

38:05

of our thrown in our laps in the show. And that's

38:07

not season eight problem. That's a season four or

38:09

five And then was not introduced earlier,

38:11

and his character was not brought along to the point

38:14

where we feel like he actually

38:17

is dangerous. It's an actual threat. Yeah, he's

38:19

an actual threat because he is an actual threat.

38:21

But we just don't have the same backstory that we do

38:23

with the other characters. That's really my biggest, main,

38:26

humongous scrape of the show, because You're on was

38:28

not big enough part. Early on he's like

38:30

this cartoonish like pirate band

38:32

mark guy and it just like and he comes

38:34

out of nowhere and we're supposed to be a friend. Yeah, they

38:36

didn't do justice. And the actor they found to play

38:39

ur On is I think he's phenomenal. I

38:41

think he's unbelievable. The guy they found to play you'r

38:43

on, he's so we're looking

38:45

cartoons also, like he looks

38:47

drunk and almost like a madman. He's

38:49

just fantastic. And I wish they would have done more with it.

38:51

I've got more Edward. Okay. So

38:55

and again this this to me is like part

38:57

of why did they not go to ten episodes?

38:59

But like why why

39:02

did they go and try and attack

39:04

King's Landing so fast? Like they

39:06

lost half of their army and they

39:08

know that they've got you know, the

39:10

Golden Company there. Basically, it's

39:13

it's very even right now in terms of how

39:15

many how many soldiers each side

39:17

has and they go right in against

39:20

against you know, the you

39:22

know Urons fleet. I mean that's a very

39:24

strong naval right.

39:27

I just didn't like that. It

39:29

was like, dude, half of your army

39:31

just got destroyed by the dead. Okay,

39:34

give him break man, Like I felt the

39:37

same way. I will And this is me

39:39

putting my own spin on this. Whole thing. Right,

39:42

If you're denerous and word

39:44

is starting to leak out that John

39:47

Snow is the actual

39:50

heir to the throne, don't

39:52

you want to try to get this over with and sit on the iron

39:54

throne as quickly as possible before this starts,

39:56

because because if you're already on the iron throne, you've

39:59

already kind of laid it's it's harder to move you at

40:01

That was my initial reaction

40:03

to this, because when season seven started, she landed

40:05

in King's Landing and I mean she wanted

40:08

to go then, Um, she's been waiting

40:10

for so long to go attack King's Landing, take

40:12

what she feels like as hers and you know,

40:14

they just finished the battle. And I think that's the

40:16

writers have gotten subserved flak this

40:18

year. The show runners have gotten some deserved flak missing

40:21

some some pretty big details. But I actually

40:23

don't really mind how quick the transition

40:26

was. I think that's kind of the point, is that that

40:28

that Calisi has been waiting for so so

40:30

long that she's just like, I don't care

40:32

that our armies are to the point everybody,

40:34

like, I think every single person is like this is a bad

40:37

idea. And she went on and did any so at least

40:39

at least the the thought of hey,

40:41

maybe you don't do this was out there because Sansa

40:43

in that meeting, she was like, well, I mean you'd

40:46

be better off probably waiting a little bit

40:48

for our men to get healthy and have to talk to the general. There's

40:50

like, no, I don't care what Barris said. It was a bad idea.

40:53

Like literally everybody's like emariss now, oh

40:55

he's all in on john Snow, like that's

40:58

gonna be interesting too, so or

41:00

or you know, should should we

41:03

call him you know, by his by his by

41:05

his real name now agon target. So

41:07

we talked about the Starbucks copy coffee

41:09

cup, which I don't get how that gets missed in editing.

41:12

Um, I don't understand that. I I don't get it.

41:14

But so we can't even leave a coffee

41:16

cup on the desk, but for Fantasy Live it's

41:19

caught on Fantasy so seriously,

41:22

And yur On got it on like a week ago, right,

41:24

yes, And she's pregnant already and he's like, oh

41:27

yeah, what does this guy have, like the supersed

41:29

Like what's the deal? Like, come on, man, I

41:31

don't think you're on is very in tune

41:33

with the internet, but out of

41:35

me, like I don't, I don't, I don't. I don't think biology

41:38

is you're on strong suits. I

41:40

mean, like you've heard it. I

41:42

don't know. That's just to me, that's

41:46

just stupid. It

41:48

is it is Jamie, But you

41:50

don't know after having sex with somebody a weekday, you're

41:52

pregnant. She's using year on, She's

41:54

she's using this to kind of manipulate year on. Yeah,

41:57

ex definitely Jamie's baby, there's don't doubt about

41:59

it. Uh. And then and

42:01

this one was just like, Okay, you've

42:03

got you've got Danny, and you've got

42:06

Tyrian, and you've got uh,

42:08

you know, the dragon there. Why

42:12

not go after him there? Just I

42:14

mean, just try and end it right there. If you're

42:16

Searcy, she's not honorable at

42:18

all. I think the biggest miss

42:20

there, if anything, is they should have killed

42:22

Tirian. Yes, yes, I mean they

42:25

send Braun up north, who

42:27

somehow gets through the castle. Yeah. Well

42:29

I had on the list to how the hell did he get everybody

42:32

standing right there? And so he's like, I'm gonna let you go this time,

42:34

even though I think I

42:36

can give the brown point of pass just because I think

42:38

obviously, deep down he is friends with both Jamie,

42:41

but how did you get to them so easily? I can get

42:44

that's the fair point is that he gets through the

42:47

hand of the king, has no security. Yeah,

42:50

yeah, just go right and work good. Yeah, but

42:53

uh yeah, I think if

42:55

we've learned anything from the show, this is Searcy

42:58

is obviously all encompassing evil, but her biggest

43:00

problem that she can't kill Tyrian or her brothers.

43:03

That right, that And and I think

43:06

I tweeted this out like I don't want to spoil

43:08

it for anybody, but like if they put

43:10

an arrow, if they made Tyrian eat

43:12

an arrow, everyone's talking about

43:14

this episode in a far different light, in a far

43:16

different light, because that would have been so game at Thrones

43:19

for them to kill him. Then I go back great,

43:22

Then I go back to you know, yeah, Tyrian should have should

43:24

have probably aid an arrow, But Serc has

43:26

also had so many opportunities to kill him, like

43:28

very very easily, and she hasn't done it. So I mean

43:32

it's just kind of like empty drama at this point,

43:34

you know. And then you gotta then you gotta feel bad

43:36

for for Gentry. He fell

43:39

in love with Aria and Aria want with

43:41

him was like, yeah, dude, you were fun for a night,

43:43

see you later. N I mean, that's

43:45

that's the right. And then it's the same thing with Jamie

43:47

too. But that's typical of like like it's

43:49

your first time and you just fall in love like it happened,

43:52

and it happens a lot of people, right, Like you know, I can't

43:54

blame injured. I thought that I just feel

43:56

bad for I thought that Jamie and Brianne drama was classic

43:58

Game of Thrones. I thought that was very good. Yes,

44:00

okay, so see

44:02

Eddie, you had thought that Jamie was all the way good now

44:04

and obviously he's not just now something

44:07

something. He's going for the same reason. So

44:09

so either so either he's got to kill Searcy

44:12

or Searcy kills him, or

44:15

Aria as Jamie kills search. I don't

44:17

want Aria to do it anymore because of but she's

44:19

on the list king that this is the last

44:21

thing she needs to do. Aria is not going to

44:23

kill Searcy. I hope she doesn't anymore. I

44:26

would have been fine that if she didn't kill a Nike king. Now it's

44:28

just too much. Now, it's like you can't stop

44:30

because she's actually she's

44:32

the actual terminator because she killed the Knight

44:34

King. I don't think they'll have her kill are anymore.

44:38

I do still think somehow Jamie and Searcy

44:40

will cancel each other out. I think if it's like a

44:42

poison thing or one gets to I don't know what it

44:44

is, but I think that I think he's still going to

44:47

because she'll just tell him that it's your your Arnold

44:50

say it's her. It's something like that. Arnolds get to

44:52

Jamie first, say it's his baby, he'll

44:54

get mad kill her. I think that's something like that

44:56

will probably happen. So they wanted to do is after the next

44:58

episode, I'm gonna tweet out a

45:00

pole who's gonna who's gonna end up on the iron

45:03

throne? Because this next episode is what our

45:05

twenty so we should have So

45:07

so some of the people are there are are

45:09

gonna die? You with think, I don't know. I thought it was gonna

45:12

happen a couple of episodes ago and not really

45:14

any huge, huge characters. Maybe theon

45:16

you know and draw up, but like no

45:18

one really like huge died. So

45:20

so now let's see if if the writers

45:23

can redeem themselves, because I feel like this has been

45:25

a kind of ant season so far. There's been

45:27

some great spots, but there's also been some what

45:29

the hell are you guys doing spots too. So

45:32

hopefully we're going to get the Kleagon battle

45:34

right, Hopefully we're gonna we'll get quicking in bowl, right,

45:37

We're gonna get that. We're gonna get I'm

45:39

hoping, I'm hoping that there's going Are

45:42

we going to get something Danny versus Sanza? Are

45:45

we? The one thing we're doing a really good job on is

45:47

is there making her um like

45:49

the into the mad Queen, basically into

45:52

what her dad was. I agree, right, yeah, yeah,

45:54

yeah, And I think that will lead to some sort of destruction.

45:57

What's gonna be interesting is to see what john

46:00

whole sign of him leaving behind Ghost was

46:02

to say, I'm not a star coming. Here's another one where

46:04

is he aligned with? Does Brianne kill Jamie?

46:07

Hey, I gave it up to you and you left me next

46:09

morning? Nah? Nah?

46:12

If she okay? So what if there is a scenario

46:15

where Jamie is back, he's full Lanister and he's

46:17

gonna battle for Cercy, Right,

46:20

what happens if there's a scenario where Jamie

46:23

is going to potentially kill

46:26

a member of that army and

46:28

Brianna could stop him. I think

46:30

the minute Jamie steps in King's landing, it's

46:32

that that's it for him. He's just he's gonna

46:34

be done there. That's it. You're

46:37

run. Uron's not making

46:39

it out alive. No, no, no, does

46:41

your n kill Jamie? It's possibly

46:43

have a battle of some sort. Yeah, yeah, I

46:46

think, like I said at the end of the show last week,

46:49

if you think this is gonna be happy

46:51

ending, and you think a lot of main characters so

46:53

I'm waiting for them to die, I mean people. But

46:55

that's my point. I have been bitching for so

46:58

long about the writing, and I get it too. Were

47:00

certain to a certain extent, the show runners, like we said, have

47:02

missed some things, but I

47:05

have. There's a couple of theories that I I've read,

47:07

and I think that it could be really devastating

47:10

to fans of like if what happens if

47:12

Sansa sees that that John aligns with Danny

47:14

and and then she makes she passed

47:16

the sense, and Aria swings a sword and takes out John

47:18

because he's no longer start like you can see that happen. That

47:21

would be devastating. Like if you find out

47:23

that Brand actually is the bad guy and and

47:25

the Night King was coming after him, all want to stop

47:27

to stop from spreading. Interesting,

47:29

there's a lot of things do you think like it might spin

47:32

like what you actually believe is good or bad. But the

47:34

two the two things that I really wanted in

47:36

this season that we're not going to get is

47:40

John versus the Night King. Well, yeah,

47:42

I want I wanted that battle, you

47:44

know, I really I really wanted that battle.

47:47

Um, it looks like we're gonnaathically the Clee

47:49

Gain Bowl. But I also really wanted

47:51

to see the reaction of Aria and

47:54

Santsa when John told him that he

47:56

was not ned Sun Like, that's such a that's a huge

47:58

pivotal point. And they just it went

48:01

it went to black. I'm like what they went to another

48:03

scene. I'm like, really, yeah, that's that's something I

48:05

hadn't thought about and that's actually yeah,

48:07

now that you brought that out, that as that pisses me. That's

48:10

that's a big mess, stupid, Like I'm fine

48:12

with Brand telling them, but then, but do you

48:14

need a reaction? Shot? Give me the reaction,

48:16

Like you know. Alright, so we got

48:18

two episodes left. We got two episodes

48:20

left to try to clear this whole thing up. Uh,

48:23

and it's gonna be interesting. So episode five on

48:25

Sunday, we'll figure out what it's called, probably

48:27

on Monday. They're not telling

48:29

us beforehand. Uh and hopefully

48:32

you know, there will be no no, no Starbucks

48:35

cups and shots this week. Yeah,

48:37

good luck. Maybe it'll be Dunk and Donuts.

48:39

Just bring it up. There's probably some intern at HBO

48:41

who is now like watching the episode, like closely

48:44

framed by frame to make sure that there's nothing

48:46

that shouldn't be. Just don't get how that gets

48:48

by. That is kind of funny. It's pretty bad.

48:50

That's pretty funny. So all right, hopefully they

48:52

figure that out. Anyway, We're done. That's it.

48:55

It's over. Appreciate your listening as always,

48:57

you know the drill. Tell two friends to tell two friends rate

48:59

review, and remember no one is useless.

49:02

Some people can be used as bad examples. We'll see you next

49:04

week. Wow

49:06

w w W.

49:17

I'm don't count. I'm

49:24
