1:00

and we'll take you through until the top

1:03

of the hour with the weekend Wages with Camp

1:05

Stewart and myself discussing the baseball

1:07

slate, you know, the sport that Jim Dave forgets exists

1:10

during the summer. Uh what was

1:12

discussing a pretty much all your game, all the news and

1:14

notes day, all the gambling. Josie Ramiers

1:16

fractured hand that's bad, Jim. Bad.

1:19

Have a fractured hand, bad for any hand injury for a

1:21

baseball player, you know, hard to grab that bat.

1:23

But that's okay. I know you don't care. Next time

1:25

you're on the talk hockey for three hours, that's

1:28

all we're gonna do is talk hockey. Then I'm gonna put

1:30

my wife on. She got

1:33

hockey draft starting a couple of weeks. I did a mock during

1:35

the weekend for hockey. Uh. You

1:37

know, everybody talks about the NFL being a

1:40

year long thing. Hockey is really trying

1:42

to stand this to do the same thing. Didn't

1:45

they just finished playing Like I'm like,

1:47

three weeks ago. The

1:49

season just last too long. I'm

1:51

not going to deny that, Jim. I mean they start

1:54

in October. They by the time the Cup is over, it's

1:56

late June or middle of June. I

1:58

mean, see, it's just two months. See just then two

2:00

months ago and literally training camp starts in about

2:03

two and a half weeks. All right, So

2:05

I agree with you there there. It really is no downtime.

2:08

Uh, that is the forever season. It

2:10

just goes on and on and on and on. But

2:14

we'll talk about that another time. I know, you really

2:16

want to anti hockey in hockey. I know,

2:18

but I'm gonna have to insist we keep talking football

2:21

if we're gonna talk hockey, and I gotta talk

2:23

you know, I gotta talk about the best goaltender

2:25

in the league. Man, guy who just keeps

2:27

getting it done year in year out and had

2:30

an exceptional eighteen season.

2:32

And you know Martin bro Door has to be in your

2:34

starting lineup, mat

2:38

Door. Uh yeah, yeah. But when

2:40

you start about absolutely, especially

2:42

if I'm in the league. Uh yeah, it's funny. You should

2:44

mention that. By the way, people actually asked last night during the

2:46

draft if they could draft Gronkowski. I

2:49

mean, it's a it's an eight man bench. They

2:51

could draft to Gronk.

2:55

Oh Gronkowski. Oh there you go. Hey,

2:57

I took him in a couple of best ball leagues

2:59

and four round what

3:02

the heck? Yeah? Uh, this league.

3:05

It's funny as CBS Sports. By the way, you know, you get those

3:07

stickers that he's he has a sticker. He

3:09

does have a sticker. So yeah,

3:12

but no one pulled the trigger. I was a little surprised once

3:14

again at the end of the guy you want to it's it's

3:16

an eight man bench. You want to put him much eight man, fine,

3:19

you know I'll be the first guy you get rid of. Anyway, one

3:21

of the go to get rid of. I didn't have an issue with it,

3:23

but no one, no one pulled that trigger to

3:25

take round. He was my favorite player, Jim. He

3:28

was my favorite playing football. I just like the way

3:30

he enjoyed life, enjoyed the playing I've

3:34

been on since forever. Actually, he

3:37

was a big reason I had the best season I've

3:39

ever had back in him and Ari

3:41

and Foster carried all my teams two wins. I

3:45

rarely had him because I I'm not a big

3:47

belief I

3:49

had. I didn't never have. I did

3:51

have a few times, didn't never. That doesn't sound like

3:53

good English, but I

3:56

don't. I'm not generally a big believer. It's spending on

3:58

an early pick on the tight end. I generally to wait. So

4:01

I rarely had him, but had

4:03

him last year the league that didn't work out well. Ron.

4:08

They were speed to Cron. One of them,

4:11

the New England reporters for ESPN. I do

4:13

not remember which one. I don't. It

4:15

might have an Mike Reefe, but I'm not I'm not sure.

4:18

But this is about two months ago, they stated

4:20

this that if gron did come back, it's

4:22

likely wouldn't be for the Patriots, that he's

4:24

had enough of the elicheck. Uh.

4:28

And if it's not for the Patriots, yeah,

4:30

okay, so I'm not crazy. Who who

4:32

would he come back with? Oh?

4:34

Anybody who wouldn't want Cronc?

4:37

Heck could any team in the league could

4:39

use Ronc. Maybe not Philadelphia

4:41

because they're pretty sold on it. They're too goods

4:45

Uh, you know, Heck, Houston could use him. It

4:48

all goes back and you're talking about you're talking

4:50

about a great blocking tight end too, and

4:53

we know what he can do catching the ball when he's fully

4:56

healthy. So why couldn't Houston has been

4:58

dying to find a good tight and that they

5:00

can count on, and so far I've

5:02

had no real no luck. I mean, you're looking

5:04

at Ryan Griffin this year. You know, maybe

5:07

Warren is the rookie, but you know,

5:09

he's been injured, hasn't really been in camp very

5:11

much, so I don't see him getting off to a

5:13

good start. So they could easily use a tight

5:16

end too. So right now Houston should be out

5:18

there shopping all in every aisle

5:20

or there's the supermarket right now Houston

5:24

needs they need a running back and go for the

5:26

high end shopping of Melvin Gord. They could trade Davian

5:29

Clowney and now they need Gronic. We'll talk about

5:31

coming out of retirement. Uh, he's gonna be

5:33

a lot of fun this year. First, that's a good team

5:35

too. Uh. They could be

5:37

a great team. But this hurts, you

5:40

know, and I'm I mean you

5:43

can do in the NFL journally, some team goes from worst

5:45

to first. I looked at all

5:47

these last place teams from last year, you

5:49

know, I mean, jackson has a shot. They're the only team I can

5:51

see doing it, can you? I mean it's something

5:53

now that Indianapolis, I don't think they win the division.

5:56

Now Tennessee, I'm something not sold on Mariota

5:58

into a Tannehill as the quarterback

6:00

there. Uh, Houston abously, they

6:02

have their issues. Now Jacksonville,

6:05

they would you put them as the favorite

6:08

to win that division now? Uh,

6:10

They're definitely move up into that conversation.

6:12

There's no doubt. I'm not sure I put him as a favorite

6:14

for anything, but they definitely move

6:17

into that competent, you know, conversation.

6:19

Look, they got still have a great defense. Didn't

6:21

play up to what people expected

6:24

of them and in fantasy last year, but they were still

6:26

a good defense. Um. I expect him to

6:28

be really good again this year. Uh

6:30

if for next stage sixty games, we know

6:33

that he gets it done based

6:35

on sheer volume alone, because his

6:37

individual numbers suck. Um.

6:40

If you look at it across the board, his numbers are

6:42

terrible. UM. But you

6:45

know he does it just because he gets

6:48

so many opportunities in here. Just to

6:50

give you a statuate, I love about him,

6:53

and and this comes from pro football focus,

6:55

not for me, folks, I'm not this intelligent. Um.

6:59

But among their

7:01

sixty three running backs with at least a hundred

7:03

fifty carries over the last two years, out

7:07

of sixty three, from has ranked in

7:10

run grade forty nine in yards

7:12

per carry and fifty in yards

7:14

after contact per attempt. UM.

7:17

So he's not a great running back. He just

7:19

does it on sheer volume. And if

7:21

he stays healthy enough that sheer volume

7:24

would be good enough to give them a really

7:26

good running game. UM. So

7:28

that that is you know what they need at that

7:31

point. Folds. He's definitely an upgrade

7:33

over Bordles. He's a guy that

7:35

plays better in games than he does in

7:37

practice field. It seems like because he doesn't

7:40

show up well in preseason a lot, he doesn't

7:42

show up well in practice, gets on the field

7:44

and he plays well, so they

7:46

have the basis to make that move. I'm

7:48

just not sure I'm fully buying in you. I

7:53

just think out of all the teams that could possibly

7:55

do, I think that Jack was really the only one. I mean,

7:57

I don't see what Giants doing it. I don't

7:59

see Detroit doing it. Uh.

8:02

I always looking to Tampa Bay, no, Arizona,

8:05

no, uh Jets

8:07

or who if it's the Jets of Buffalo? What that we need to give his

8:09

last No? No, Uh, I'm

8:13

gonna give you one. I'm gonna give you one right now

8:15

that I think it has a chance and we'll surprise

8:17

everybody. And

8:19

I hate to say it because I'm a fan, but it's the

8:22

Giants, look, I know, and

8:24

I'm not normally that this guy. Don't normally

8:26

say that, but they could surprise. Look,

8:29

if Dallas doesn't get Zeke in, let's

8:31

say what if? I'm

8:33

sorry totally Apollo. His look good, you

8:35

know in so far in preseason,

8:38

I'm not sure if that's gonna fully play out in the

8:40

season, but we'll see. But it

8:43

definitely takes a big chunk out of

8:45

their office. It does. No matter how

8:47

good he's looked in preseason, He's not Zeke. He's

8:49

not even close. So that definitely hurts him.

8:52

Washington and finished above. The Giants has all

8:55

kinds of problems already. If they lose Trent Williams,

8:57

which it looks like they will, it's

8:59

apps You're not gonna help Eric Flowers

9:02

on that tackle spot. I mean, I still

9:04

can't stop laughing. And the fact that he's

9:06

still a starting tackle in the NFL is

9:08

beyond me. Um. If I

9:11

were them, I'd I'd bring me back from retirement

9:14

over him because he just he's a swinging

9:16

gate That just is terrible. Uh

9:18

So there, there's there's a lot

9:21

of things going on in Philadelphia. Okay, they

9:23

have a lot of good pieces in place. The defense

9:25

should be better, offensive line

9:27

is getting older, so but it

9:29

still should be among the best. They've

9:32

got a lot of talented weapons. But

9:34

if Carson Wentz goes down, now, what are you looking

9:36

at? You know, Josh McCown, Nate

9:39

Sudfeld, one of these guys

9:41

as all of a sudden taking them to the Proms

9:43

with Land. I can't see it. The Giants

9:46

have improved their offensive line, oh

9:49

excuse me. Uh, the wide

9:51

receivers have taken taken a hit, but Sterling

9:53

Shepherd is solid. They get golden tape

9:55

back after week four and

9:58

you know Ingram gives them that would right

10:00

and of course Barkley. Uh, their defense

10:02

should be a little better this year. That's always been

10:05

the suspect. But we've seen them

10:07

before out play what they look like

10:09

on paper. And this is a team

10:11

that I think has enough pieces they could

10:14

surprise. I'm not saying it's gonna happen.

10:16

I'm just saying they could surprise.

10:20

Yeah, it's not happening. There's so many

10:22

what ifs there. Man. If I know the whats for that, man,

10:24

i'd be rich. Uh Oh,

10:27

there's like there's no if for your team. No,

10:31

No, I don't need that. I don't need to rely on

10:34

all Wentz being out. Dallas could be Philadelphia

10:36

with it without wins. I don't need to worry

10:38

without seeing I'm not so sure

10:42

Zeke signs he may miss a games. That wouldn't

10:44

sin You know again, I agree

10:46

with you, But what

10:48

if we're playing the what if game? Who can bounce

10:51

back what they need to

10:53

bounce play. I do not play the what if game?

10:55

All right, Dallas. Is that the top five defense,

10:58

top tenant worse in the in the league, right

11:00

that their sound all around. So

11:02

one or two, one or two injuries can't

11:04

change that in a hurry everything

11:06

you can pay one or two injuries exactly. That's

11:08

all I'm saying. The one thing I've learned

11:11

about playing fantasy all

11:14

all I could say. The one thing I've learned about playing

11:16

fantasy football all these years is

11:18

that you can never say never. If

11:21

somebody would have come up to you. If somebody

11:23

would have come up to you in Week nine last

11:25

year and you had Girly,

11:28

now you you had Damian Williams,

11:30

and they had Todd Gurley and they offered

11:32

you Girley for Williams, you would

11:34

jump all over that in the heartbeat laugh. You're asked

11:36

to the bank all the way, and you would

11:38

have been wrong. You know what they

11:40

call this, Jim, They call us cherry picking. But

11:44

I'm saying it happens all the time. We could

11:46

never say never in the NFL.

11:48

You just can't. I didn't say never I'm a betting

11:50

guy. I am not bidding the Giants. I'm

11:54

not either. You asked

11:56

somebody that could surprise for worst to first,

11:58

it could be the Giants, That's all I'm saying. No, I didn't.

12:01

I didn't. I didn't say surprised a team that could go from

12:03

works the first, not a surprise team. Well, they still

12:05

could go from work to worst the first. They're

12:07

not. It's not happening. Sorry, not

12:10

having Giant fans. You're just not that good. Your

12:12

defense is bad, all right? I agree there in

12:14

the you said, And losing golden tape

12:16

for four games too is just a crusher because

12:19

now I don't know what he'll be there. Giants

12:22

hater, you, I'm not

12:24

a Giant, stay right, Yes you are sound

12:27

like a Giant. You should move to Dallas school.

12:29

No, I'm not. I'm not the same fan I used to be.

12:32

There is any team, but I think it's the job we do. I'm

12:34

not the same Cowboy fan. I'm not the same Yankee fan, not the same

12:36

Island fan. I'm just not. I

12:39

think it's I think it's the job we do. I think it's getting older

12:41

as well, when you realize the players

12:44

don't care as much the fans do. Not

12:46

every player. Some players do, but a lot

12:48

of players. It literally is just a job. Wanna lose,

12:51

Okay, I got paid, you

12:53

know, and that that takes him of the enjoyment out of it. Being a

12:55

fantasy got a betting guy. I

12:58

bet against the Yankees a million times. I

13:00

mean, if that's where I think the money is going, I'm that's I'm gonna

13:02

get paid. I'll bet against the Yankees. I don't care. I

13:04

want to get paid. You know, I want my fans.

13:06

I want my fantasy teams to win a hell of a lot more than I want the Cowboys

13:09

to win. Jerry Jones is not sending me a check. I

13:11

said, you know, lest I checked my mail. Nothing, Erry

13:13

Jones. I want to get paid. If that means rude,

13:15

A guess he got ways to lose, I'll win a thousand dollars. God

13:18

wasn't good loose. Sorry, this is

13:20

the way I know it. That sounds terrible as a fan, but I

13:24

like a fan. To me, your

13:27

fan card money comes

13:30

first, man, I said, they're not paying my bills.

13:33

Oh that's true. You got that baby boy

13:35

on the way. You gotta take care of him. Yeah,

13:38

I do not have a baby boy on the way, by the way, anybody

13:41

on it's not as far as I know, honey,

13:43

honey. Uh So I'm

13:45

not gonna have that football conversation with him, Jimmy,

13:48

So hell be god if I

13:50

find out later. Hey,

13:53

look, I've got it this way. Back to that conversation

13:55

real quick. I was thinking about it. You know, if

13:57

I go back and thinking my day's playing, I

14:00

can't tell you how many times I must

14:02

have had a concussion and continued

14:04

to play and all of that. And I'm still

14:06

surprised to this day. I'm half

14:09

as loose as as I am, um

14:11

for because of that. You know, now they're

14:13

talking about how, you know, three four concussions and you

14:16

know a guy could be done. Hecky, I know I

14:18

had that before high school. I had

14:20

that. So who knows? What

14:24

do we call? Day, jim What are we called when

14:26

you got hit in the head? Your bell

14:28

rung? Yeah? You

14:31

guys bell wrong? He's all right, you know, you guys

14:33

bell. He used to me. Stop, we'll have the phase. You know, if

14:35

you give him a minute, it'll be fine.

14:37

Get back on the field, right, give a minute, he'll be fine.

14:39

Get get back in there, let's go. I mean, it's

14:42

it's amazing, how thin, how things have changed.

14:44

Right, you were sort of a wind if you didn't

14:46

come back in Yeah, exactly right, and

14:49

coaches you that absolutely

14:53

come on, he got got on the field, he's got a broken

14:55

leg, he's playing. How come you can't get out there with a

14:57

headache? Come on, get out there. Right, it's

15:00

amazing, amazing how

15:02

that's all changed now. But you're you're at your hundreds. That correctly,

15:05

correct on How that's how that's worked. I

15:08

mean, it's like smelling salts, guys, I mean

15:10

it's it's wow, really smelling.

15:12

Oh man, yeah right, oh man. I hadn't

15:14

thought about that in a long time. Holy crap. Yeah,

15:18

but anybody who hasn't had smelling salts, they

15:20

do wake you up. I'll tell you that those things

15:22

are, man, that those are your whole body. I

15:26

did not like those things at all. Not. By

15:29

the way, if they gave you smelling salts and you didn't jerk, uh,

15:32

you're you were dead. Yeah, the

15:37

cord is the next phone call. Just

15:39

just think of it this way, folks. If

15:41

you've ever used a vixen hailer in your

15:44

life, you know, use that like by

15:46

a hundred thousand times. And

15:49

that was smelling salt. Smelling

15:51

salting. Oh, I didn't that. That brings back

15:53

some bad memories. Smellings

15:56

faults. I did not like those at all. But

15:58

that that's the that's literally dead games ago. I

16:00

haven't seen that, seen those in a long time. They still

16:02

don't use them all, at least nothing out

16:04

in the public open now. On the football sides,

16:06

I'm as a cowboy fan. Remember Roger Star back then

16:08

giving him to him yetter he got dgged a thousand times

16:11

and uh, you know, and I remember one

16:13

time he didn't jerk. I was like, oh, that's

16:16

not good. That's not good at

16:18

all. And Roger stopping ends up retiring early

16:20

because of the other head hits, you know. Epan retired

16:22

early because of the head of Steve Young retired

16:25

early because of the head hits, you know,

16:27

and uh, you know, you made

16:29

me back there. Andrew Luck is really not the head hits. It seems

16:31

to be more an overall body lie, an injury

16:34

thing where he just didn't want to take it anymore.

16:37

Still a shame, but he didn't want to take it anymore. So anyway,

16:39

let's go through to Ezekiel Elliott. I know and standing we're coming

16:41

up against the break here, but we'll get a little a little bit on Ezekiel

16:43

Elliott. Uh do you think

16:45

you mentioned this on the Frenzy on Friday that you

16:47

had him seventh in your rankings? Now does

16:50

he keep going down the longer he holds

16:52

out for I mean, does

16:55

he keep going down your rankings? And where's

16:58

the point of no return for you? Like I gotta

17:00

take him? I keeping I'm going to well

17:03

right now? Yeah, he he will continue

17:06

to slide a little bit the longer he stays he's in

17:08

Cambo Cabo. Um. You know, if

17:10

he comes back to Dallas and he's

17:12

in Dallas, then he won't slide

17:14

as as much because I figured they've got to be working on

17:16

it. Look, I fully expect to be back

17:19

to but at this point there is a chance

17:21

he can miss maybe week one, week

17:23

two. I just don't know. If it happens, we'll

we can't Fantasy update George

20:35

in Rex, Jim

20:38

and I are participating in the Cool Squad

20:41

Thursday Night that's through UH with

20:43

Chris Venture the listeners on the Fantasy

20:46

Football Frenzy Show, and I

20:48

just found in the draft order I

20:51

have. Oh

20:55

okay, oh, I think be

20:57

in your choice. That's way I dont have to worry about kill

21:00

Elliott. Uh so that's

21:02

not I'm not gonna ask you're gonna pick. We know you're gonna get great

21:04

running back no matter what you do. Probably I would assume

21:06

you're gett Kamara. But yeah,

21:12

I'm sure you would, uh

21:16

get I'll get to that a second though. But okay,

21:18

so I was we were talk about Ezekiel Elliott, all

21:21

right. Uh, I don't want to take him at

21:23

I already have him in the other the other league we're in, the Frenzy

21:26

League. Also

21:29

drafted him in the league, but

21:31

we'll call it the Pitt League. I like that better, Pitt

21:34

League. I I took him with five, and I

21:36

could have got him last night my home league, Jim,

21:38

and I wasn't doing it just in case,

21:40

as you said, he does miss a

21:42

week or two or the soft tissue injury, uh

21:45

sort of thing there. So I don't want to take too many chances.

21:48

Fifth pick. I assume once

21:50

again Kamara McCaffrey

21:54

Barkley all gone. I

21:57

already have David Johnson two leagues now, and I want

21:59

to take him to the third league. If he fools, I get undo

22:01

in a league. I

22:03

don't think. If you got that concerned, you go with the

22:05

wide receiver. That's what I tell everybody if you're

22:07

worried about those running backs in that range. Personally,

22:10

I love David Johnson. I've been grabbing them everywhere.

22:13

If not David Johnson, it's James Conner.

22:16

But if you're not really sold on any of them,

22:18

then grab DeAndre Hopkins or

22:20

grab Davante big Items,

22:23

whoever is your number one wide receiver at

22:25

that point. Because you're you're solid there

22:27

at that point. You could always make the running backs up

22:29

later on. If you're really that concerned,

22:32

don't get boiled down into thinking at

22:34

that point, oh, I gotta take a running back

22:36

here at five or at six, you don't,

22:39

you know, Grab that top wide receiver on

22:41

your list and roll with it. It's a nice safe

22:43

pick. You get away from a lot of that guardia

22:45

but of worrying about these running backs, and

22:47

you don't have to, So I absolutely

22:50

recommend if you're that worried about it, go away

22:52

from it. Grab a wide receiver. That's

22:55

great advice. And I've had the eighth pick. I probably follow that.

22:58

I find on taking running back. I like

23:00

David Johnson's Well. My only issue is I in my

23:02

last two drafts, I've gotten David Johnson. He

23:04

fell to eleven in one league, and I got

23:06

him yesterday too. I forget where Uh

23:09

you know, I'm I'm a David Johnson believer. Eleven.

23:12

I take David Johnson eleven

23:14

and a heartbeat super flex league.

23:16

That's why I fell. Uh. I

23:19

was surprised, mind you. And there were some people not like you don't

23:21

don't believe. Let's get home league wasn't an exercent

23:23

league. They don't listen in the home

23:26

league. You say, oh David Johnson Arizona card was

23:28

blah, suck that thing. So I wasn't

23:30

surprised. He felt, you know, this was not far from the next. But a

23:32

couple of guys know what they're doing. A couple of guys don't you

23:34

know me? Home lea. Yeah,

23:38

that's a money league. It's a heavy money league. But

23:40

you better have about every Every

23:42

money league needs donators. Yes,

23:45

I agree, I like donations, donations.

23:48

I'm a big believer in this gym twelve team league. This

23:50

is any league expert, Uh, you

23:53

know, home leaguer or whatever. Three teams

23:55

they get eliminated by injuries. Yeah, I'm

23:58

one injury. You got crushed. You

24:00

have your team and on the the I R. And

24:02

that's what you've done. You know. So we

24:04

already eliminate three teams. You can eliminate

24:06

another two to three teams. Yeah, even

24:08

an expert leagues, they just didn't pay attention, they didn't

24:10

make the right moves. They were always behind. You

24:13

know, they're playing a hundred and fifty leagues

24:15

and forgot that sort of thing. Leagues.

24:20

Yeah, I don't understand those people. Man, don't they have a line?

24:22

Uh? Isn't it? They literally play fantasy baseball?

24:25

Um. So I always believe Jim that I

24:28

just need to avoid being the injury guy. And there's really no way

24:30

you can avoid it. Just don't take a whole bunch of I

24:32

guess injury prone players. But if I

24:34

could avoid being the injury guy, I've only got

24:36

to beat out five or six other guys.

24:39

I'm a big believer in that. Just gonna avoid being the

24:41

injury guy. Well,

24:43

look I look at it slightly differently.

24:45

When I go into a draft, the one

24:47

thing I always feel pretty confident is

24:50

is I'm not going to be in the bottom six, so all

24:52

I gotta do is beat five. Others see

24:56

the same the same way. I agree. Uh,

24:59

do you have a rival even if they don't know their

25:01

arrival? Do you have somebody? And you playing leagues? I'm not saying

25:03

every league, but that he realized, Damn,

25:06

I never beat this guy. Not what it matters. Maybe

25:09

you know who you finished eighth and he finished and

25:11

he finished ninth. Yeah, you beat him, but it didn't matter. Is

25:13

there anybody out there a name? Yeah?

25:16

There is actually, and there's one that's on this

25:18

network that for some reason, he's got

25:21

my number, and that's Mr Adam roynas

25:23

Um. He's always tough for hilarious.

25:26

He's a great draft or he's a great fantasy

25:28

player. And for some reason, I have a lot

25:31

of issues playing against Adam Ronas. I

25:34

guess who mine is? Uh,

25:37

Tony Sincotten, No,

25:39

that's Adam, Sorry,

25:42

Tony, the same

25:44

guyon He's good, He's no doubt

25:46

about it. He is good. He's he plays

25:49

his game well. He's not somebody who just talks about

25:51

it. He plays his game well. A

25:54

lot of guys out there to talk about it don't play

25:56

the game. Well. I've

25:58

told Adam, I'm sure I beat him in

26:00

the leagues where it once again, I finished eighth, he finished night. Who

26:02

cares? But when it ever came down to where it was

26:05

important, I've always I've lost the playoffs to him. He's always

26:07

fished a head of be in baseball. It's uh,

26:09

it's frustrating. I doubt he cares,

26:11

but it's first training to me. That's once

26:13

I want to be a finished ahead of been a league mattered.

26:16

You know it's been. Uh it makes me. I told that, I'm

26:18

miss I don't know why. You know, I know why.

26:20

He's a very good player, but uh, you

26:22

know, even in matches where I thought I had to be the advantage,

26:24

he always comes out ahead. Uh just pisses

26:27

me off. Really, Actually, this makes me mad. You

26:29

know, it's always always somebody you Uh you

26:31

can't you have trouble beating How

26:34

are you Jim? Once again, I always like Jim asking

26:36

Jim these crushers. He plays in a lot of leagues, so he has

26:38

a better, uh a better overall view than I.

26:40

Would think just about anybody. I

26:43

think from when you and I first started playing, the

26:46

big changes trading right. So, um,

26:48

I guess a two part question to you. I'm assuming in a lot

26:50

of leagues you're playing, you don't see as many trades as you used

26:52

to, and be are you one of these

26:54

guys who believes that trading pretty much? You'd be out

26:56

well because you know, you want to avoid the collusion

26:59

and the idea of trades that do happen here. How do

27:01

you feel about trading in general? I

27:03

love to trade, Um, I absolutely do. Um.

27:06

So you know, I do play a lot of

27:09

leagues, but a lot of them are free leagues, just because

27:11

I love to draft and have fun with it.

27:14

And it's really hard to have fun in a money

27:16

league. You know, maybe in a friends money

27:18

league you can have fun because you can get on each other

27:20

all the time, but you know, to play

27:23

in money leagues against guys you don't know and stuff

27:25

really doesn't hold a lot of appeal to me

27:28

because it's still fun to me, and

27:30

that isn't fun. Uh. You know, you can't

27:33

trade in those In most of those leagues

27:35

things like that, there's very little interaction,

27:38

you know, I don't really find that as

27:40

much fun. I know, you know, when I play

27:42

those leagues, I'm in it to win it, and that's

27:45

what I'm doing. But for me, I

27:47

much prefer, you know, leagues that are more casual,

27:50

maybe even free, where you have people

27:52

talking trash and you can make trades

27:54

whatever you do. Uh, nobody's really

27:57

grumbling about anything because there's no money

27:59

on a line. To me, that's just more

28:02

the pure fun of fantasy football. UM

28:05

don't get me wrong. I play in plenty of money leagues,

28:07

and um as cut throat as they come when

28:09

they get into money league. But you know,

28:11

for me, I love to trade, and I love leagues

28:14

where I can trade, and I trade all

28:16

the time. It's

28:19

just it's one thing I does over the years. Though I mean, trades are

28:22

I think it's it's it's actually your fault. It's my fault.

28:25

It's because of what we do. People are so afraid

28:27

to trade. They're so afraid that if

28:29

they make a trade, Jim Day is now going what were

28:32

you thinking? You're an idiot? How could you do

28:34

this? You know the solution that be, But

28:36

be by the way, maybe you want to get in touches

28:39

before you make a trade. If you worried about what we're

28:41

gonna say, which means you told us somehow, then about

28:43

asking us about the trade. We'll give you our opinion.

28:45

Yeah, but I think people are so afraid now when I ever, like, I'm

28:48

not gonna say every offer, but probably two

28:50

thirds of the offers I get now are just insulting. And

28:52

if you insult me, I'm not I'm not even giving you a reply back.

28:54

I'm sorry, I'm not in my

28:56

mind you have no interest, then you're looking at rit me

28:58

off. If you be an offer, I understand

29:01

it's a solid offer, maybe not your best offer, but then

29:03

we can negotiate, we can have fun. And when we work

29:05

on our trade. But you insult me, Jim, I just lose. I

29:07

lose interest. I judge this is interest in

29:09

the trade. And I find that mostly trade

29:12

offers I get someone's looking to rip me

29:14

off because they don't want to hear it. They don't want

29:16

to hear from Jim Day that you were You're an idiot, you

29:18

made a terrible deal. They're hoping that they can be on the others.

29:20

Okay, I'll be the idiot, and that's annoys

29:22

me to no end. Yeah, I'm

29:24

with you. I don't love those kind of offers either.

29:27

You know, God guy coming up

29:29

with some you know, crazy thing. He give

29:31

me sixteen pieces from my one stud.

29:33

You know, I don't care about the sixteen little pieces. I'll

29:36

take the stud, thank you very much. Um, you

29:38

know, and the thing the ones I love

29:40

for the guys to send you the offer. Yeah, you

29:42

get back to him saying no, that's really not for me, and

29:45

then they try to tell you how much better it is

29:47

for your team. Well,

29:49

thank you. I can do my own analysis. I appreciate

29:51

your help though, and I'll take that under

29:53

advisement, but um,

29:56

shut up. Um, don't

29:58

don't try and convince me how much this helps

30:00

my team. I can do that on my own.

30:03

That those are the ones that really get me. I'm

30:06

with you there. Thanks, Thanks.

30:09

I think I might know about fantasy. I think I realized

30:11

what my team is. Yeah, I don't need you to convince

30:13

me. I don't. I don't mind you trying a little bit. And that's

30:16

part of the game we play here. But don't go overboard.

30:18

If if I'm a flat note, it's a flat note,

30:20

believe me. If I'm interested in the deal, you'll get

30:22

it. You'll get a negotiation for me. I measured Matt

30:24

Deutsch. He gave me an offer that was fair. Granted

30:27

I don't need the players he was offering

30:29

me because I'm strong at those positions, but the orfer

30:31

was fair. So I did give him a counter and we'll see what how

30:33

it goes from there and we can work something out.

30:36

You know, but if you actually, if you insold me Jim,

30:38

I just get like really, because, like I said, if I'm

30:40

gonna trade with Jim Day, you know the first thing I'm gonna

30:42

do before I even told to Jim's look at Jim's team. Okay,

30:45

Jim, he's he's got great running backs, forget

30:47

about it. I'm not gonna but he's

30:49

weak at wide receiver. Okay, so maybe I I

30:52

have extra white receivers. I can work this in. I need a run receiver.

30:55

Which league are you looking at? It's

30:57

League eight two night

31:00

h But the idea is, I'm looking at your teeth and this way

31:02

I'm gonna get Jim interest. I'm not gonna offer Jim and running

31:04

back. He's got eighteen running backs and they're all

31:06

great. He doesn't need one, and I'm not gonna

31:08

make Jim my best offer. I'm not, but I'm not gonna insult him

31:10

other anybody way. This goes home. I'm this goes

31:12

for regular people too. I don't want to sell anybody in my

31:14

home leagues. I'll make it, I'll sound it over.

31:17

It's probably not my best offer. Less I'm gonna time cunch,

31:19

but a solid offer to get Jim's interest and

31:21

then Jim, really they come back to the okay or

31:24

now you know I'm not looking to deal. And if Jim says you're not looking

31:26

a deal, I move on. I'm not gonna pest thee him or

31:28

anybody else. I'm just I'm not that kind of guy. But

31:30

if he gives me back, he may say, Okay, I've reather that

31:32

this because then we have we have a conversation now and

31:35

now we maybe we can work something out. Maybe we can't.

31:37

That's just the way I said. I don't want to insult anybody,

31:39

Jim, especially anybody in the industry. Like insulting

31:42

you would be idiotic. Oh yeah, maybe Jim's a Maybe

31:44

Jim's drinking today and yes

31:47

twice by accident. That's what I feel

31:49

like people are hoping for I missed you by

31:51

a day. Damn. Um.

31:54

Yeah, I was drinking some nice McAllen eighteen

31:57

year uh blended uh

32:00

ingle vault last night. It was nice. Um. So

32:03

let's see during during the auction to which

32:05

made it even more fun than one with all

32:07

this luck news hit it was kind

32:09

of interesting. Actually, um I

32:11

am. I am what you call a

32:14

very fair trader. When I make an

32:16

offer, I have absolutely you

32:18

know, gone over your roster, gone over

32:20

my roster, picked out a couple of pieces

32:22

I think can help you, and picked out a couple of pieces

32:24

on your team that I think can help me. The

32:26

reason I do this is more

32:29

often than not, people's first reaction

32:31

if I offer them a trade is oh

32:34

crap, what does Jim know that I don't know? He

32:36

does this for a freaking living. Um, So I

32:38

can't trade with Jim. He knows something I don't know. So

32:41

I've become a much more fair trader

32:43

because I want those trades in the

32:45

future, and I want people to fee feel comfortable being

32:47

able to trade with me, know that, knowing

32:50

that I'm not going to rake them over the coals. So

32:52

I am always offering a trade I

32:54

think can help you as much as it helps

32:57

me. I really don't start from it anywhere

32:59

else. The guys that to come to me with all

33:01

the crazy offers, and I mean really off

33:03

the wall offers. Uh offer me

33:06

a backup running back in a uh wide

33:09

receiver three for a start running back. Things

33:11

like that, I usually turn around and offer

33:13

them, uh, you know, one of my players

33:16

for basically their entire team,

33:19

and throw that back at them, just

33:21

to say, hey, look, idiot, this this is you know

33:24

you want to make stupid offers, here's one for you. Um

33:26

so, yeah, I'm with you on that. I'm not a big

33:29

fan of that kind of stuff. People, you

33:31

know, don't overvalue your own

33:33

players and then come to me and tell me how great

33:35

they are for me. It's

33:38

but I don't even go without what you started talking

33:40

about, you know, if you're gonna make back.

33:42

Uh yeah, I mean it's frustrating

33:45

if you want to close off trade talks real quick when you

33:47

offer something like that, I would even

33:49

I wouldn't even be a small as like you are and give a reply

33:51

back. I just you know, I'm too busy

33:53

here, I ain't got I ain't got time to this.

33:56

I just don't have time for a trade offers make

33:58

something I can and I said, I never expect

34:00

your best trade off from I understand what we're going to

34:02

play the negotiation game here. Wow wow,

34:07

Okay, just to throw this out there real quick, something

34:09

you might want to talk about on the next show. But

34:12

early numbers out of Vegas have colts

34:14

wind total dropping from nine

34:16

point five to six point five.

34:21

Yeah, that that's something they'd be. It's funny.

34:23

We were doing it yesterday came and on. We did for every team

34:25

in the NFL yesterday before this, Uh,

34:27

neither one of us was touching Indianapoleis. We were leaving it alone.

34:30

We knew it would dropped. I didn't

34:32

know whould dropped three games. That's a heavy drop.

34:38

That. Uh, that is something you're absolutely right him and I

34:41

will be discussing that. Uh wow.

34:43

I mean, you know, I almost forgotten

34:45

about the luck thing. You depressed me again now

34:48

looking the leak, we will listen. I know you

34:50

have been a bunch of leaks soup. But yes,

34:53

well we'll definitely be discussing that. I don't think

34:55

there's any doubt we'll be discussing that all right,

34:57

next topic, Antonio, we

35:00

don't we sometimes we don't discuss as much on a fantasy

35:02

frenzy. So Jim Day, Uh,

35:05

Antonio Brown, you're feeling better about Brown? I assume

35:07

he he had his hearing. Uh, I was gonna

35:10

say yesterday Friday. I assume he's gonna lose

35:12

that hearing. Uh, Corny to Drew Rosenhouse. It

35:14

doesn't matter when I lose. He'll be there, you

35:16

know. I think Drew drewsy that's the plan right

35:18

now. Plans can change. Hopefully

35:21

he shows him all right, he doesn't get too angry

35:23

and decides it throw furniture obviously over roof again

35:25

Antonio Brown, I

35:28

mean, I assume you have been some names already.

35:31

How would you treat for guys who are drafting him tonight? What

35:33

are you doing? Would you take Antonio Brown? Yeah,

35:37

it really comes down to where he falls too,

35:39

And there's no doubt about it. Everybody

35:42

has value at some point in the draft. But

35:45

I am a little put off about him. Look,

35:48

it's not even so much him. I think he'll be there.

35:50

He'll be playing in some helmet or another. Heck,

35:52

maybe they he'll he'll try and get somebody to uh

35:55

disguise his helmet to make it look like one of the

35:57

approvements. I don't know what to do, but he'll be

35:59

on the field. My problem is more how

36:01

much time he's missed, you

36:03

know, in preseason training camp because

36:05

of the feet, because of the helmet. You

36:07

know, when you're working with a new offense and a new quarterback,

36:10

you need time on the field, and that bothers me. So

36:13

again, I think he might get off to

36:15

a slow start. But then again, as I

36:17

said on the Frenzy, if he gets off to a slow

36:19

start, a savvy owner would then try and

36:21

swoop in and see if you can get him on the cheap, because

36:23

I think he'll definitely get better

36:26

as the season goes on. Guys too good

36:28

not to Okay,

36:30

America's favorite game show. What

36:33

would Jim do? Brown

36:36

or Keenan Allen? Right

36:39

now, I'll go Keenyan Allen. Absolutely love

36:41

him in this uh, especially with Tyrean

36:44

Williamss gone, Keenan Allen is gonna

36:46

suck up a lot of targets. Agreed.

36:48

I did that last night. Actually took it. Took Allen over Brown,

36:51

h Brown or Marie

36:54

Cooper who hasn't you know what?

36:57

At this point, I'm gonna stick with Brown because

36:59

Mary Cooper has been missing time now with the

37:01

foot injury as well. And while he did come

37:03

in last year and have a couple of good games, he had a

37:05

couple of games that weren't so good. I do expect

37:08

him to bounce back, but this foot injury is starting to

37:10

bother me. I

37:12

agree. I would take Brown as well. Mr

37:14

Kopa Brown or Edelman? Uh

37:18

oh man um, Yeah, that's tough.

37:21

I like Edelman just because he's got that safe

37:23

four. Brown's definitely

37:25

got a higher ceiling. But I think I'd go with

37:27

Edelman. But I'd be back and forth,

37:31

feeling last one, feeling

37:34

easy. All right,

37:36

it's a good little who

37:39

thinks out of mere big point with

37:41

40:58

maybe both. I don't know. Uh, it's just the

41:00

way it is here. Uh. Jim, by the way, once

41:03

again, we I thank you very much. You've covered for me

41:05

on the month. Vocals you've covered for from Mike Joe.

41:08

Uh. And I know weekends of pain. You

41:10

know, everybody has stuff they want to do here, but certainly

41:12

appreciate you've made our life a lot, especially gorgeous

41:15

Sunday morning we have here in New York. Yes,

41:19

it is a little cool. You can feel a football

41:21

in there, can't you feel it a little bit? Oh? I love

41:23

it. Yesterday today is this is my perfect

41:26

weather. Give me, give me high

41:28

sixties, low seventies, and I'm in heaven. I

41:31

agree. It's funny when yeah, when

41:33

it comes to football, gym, when he comes to baseball, I played

41:35

baseball. She played nice, sunny weather hot, you know,

41:37

that's when it's good football. On the opposite, man,

41:39

I watching football when it's sunny

41:42

out, I'm like, oh, you know, I like little at least a little great

41:44

clouds like play at least in grayness. I

41:46

prefer snow and rain and mud and all that stuff.

41:49

But uh yeah, it just has

41:51

to be a mess. It just has to be a little

41:53

bit of a mess. So I like that. Even

41:55

though nowadays they tend to delay the games and anything

41:58

in lane got the bid we

42:00

should blame when the weather is rough here, you see the delay

42:03

games if it's thunder and lightning lightning,

42:06

But speak of lightning, did you see the golf? I don't know what

42:08

tournament it was. I'm not a big guy. I don't watch much god,

42:10

but uh bolt hit the course

42:13

and uh injured some fans. I think it hit a hit

42:15

a tree. I guess the splinters and the tree

42:18

some fans. They have a video. No, I

42:20

did not see that. Yeah.

42:22

I just mean while the NFL is saying, and you

42:25

wonder why we delayed games. Yeah,

42:27

you're right, I get it. It's

42:31

just that, you know, I just get annoyed. You

42:33

know, Uh what was that one game? Wasn't

42:35

was it the last year? The game in Miami? That was it

42:38

started at one and end of eight thirty? Yeah?

42:40

Right, yeah that was. But

42:43

hey, you gotta be prudent. You gotta

42:45

be safe when it comes to fans. I mean, if

42:48

if a fan gets hurt because they got hit

42:50

by lightning in the stadium, and man,

42:54

there's so many repercussions from that, it isn't

42:56

funny. Oh no, I agree, safety

42:59

does come first. I want to say, I'm annoyed. Uh

43:01

you know, it's still safety comes first. I'm

43:04

well, I'm I'm the guy who believes him of player

43:06

safety. But I I want eighteen. I

43:08

want an eighteen game schedule too, because I want to kill them.

43:10

In the February. I hate the month of February.

43:13

You know, football has just ended. You know, it's

43:15

and ends of the first week of the you know, Super Bowl of the first

43:17

Sunday in February. It's the coldest month of

43:19

the year. It's miserable in Northeast Youn. You can't

43:21

barely go out. Valentine's Days is

43:23

in February. Every guy gets screwed. Uh,

43:26

and not a good way. And in February.

43:28

So you know you have two well weeks now,

43:31

I killed them at the February. It gives me a little closer to baseball,

43:33

so I'd be very happy with it. With

43:35

an eighteen game schedule. That's when I start my fantasy

43:38

football dress. Yes,

43:40

I know, believe me. I see them on Twitter

43:42

over time. Jim's gonna have a draft Master today. It's

43:45

you know it's about I mean, I literally I started

43:47

my first draft for nineteen the day

43:49

after the Super Bowl. I'm

43:55

not surprised. So not

43:57

surprised. There. Do you you met your year

43:59

with draft of five clock today? Correct? Yes,

44:02

I have drafted five o'clock today. OK.

44:05

What kind of league? Uh? It's a uh,

44:08

it's actually a pretty decent

44:10

money online Championship league. Nice,

44:14

so we know what Jim will be doing you at five o'clock today. Uh,

44:17

now you mentioned before you you joked that you go in

44:20

the goon squad league on Thursday night,

44:22

you gonna take the homes at three? I'm

44:25

bait once again. If you were in one league, or it's

44:27

a couple of leagues, are you're going he

44:29

would ever take my homes in round three? W

44:32

whears ADPs? Are you? Are you a believer

44:34

waiting for a quarterback? Well?

44:37

You know, because I play in so many leagues, I absolutely

44:39

do most of the time wait for a quarterback.

44:42

But there have been a couple of those leagues where

44:44

I wanted to shift it up and go different, and

44:46

there's a couple of them to night. I do have my homes

44:49

that I grabbed in the third. Look,

44:51

he is what he is. That kid had an amazing season.

44:53

On next year more than likely doesn't

44:56

reach the same numbers he had last year.

44:58

But even if he only has if he has a regression,

45:02

we're still looking at four thousand yards and forty

45:04

touchdowns, which probably puts him at the top

45:06

of the heap. Again. So you know, I'm

45:08

not really worried about him. He definitely represents

45:10

value. He could absolutely

45:13

be the top scoring quarterback again.

45:16

So you know, I don't have any problem with it. If

45:18

somebody wants to do it, if that's their only league, especially

45:20

if they got money on it, why not grab

45:22

the best quarterback in the league and run with it. I

45:25

mean, you lost number two or three in luck.

45:28

You know Watson, that out old line

45:30

is losing people that just lost Lamar Miller.

45:33

You know, if they don't really make up for that, then

45:35

he's got a drop in fantasy drafts.

45:38

So you know, at this point he could clearly have that

45:40

early rung tier all to himself. Okay,

45:45

I'll switch up to the tight end. We've seen Travis

45:47

Kelsey go. We we know the first round in

45:50

some leagues. Here, I use somebody in

45:52

the majority leagues who would do that. Would you take

45:54

Kelsey maybe? Would you take Kelsey around one? Would

45:56

you take Arts at the end of round two, round three? Kittles?

45:58

Same thing? Or do you wait on height end as

46:00

well in a majority of your leagues majority

46:02

of my league's I wait, um. In some leagues

46:05

I've waited too long, But in most

46:07

leagues, I wait, um. But I have

46:09

taken Kelsey. I'm a little off

46:12

Earth's this year, just because of the

46:14

fact that how much they're talking about they want

46:16

to use Goddard, and I really like Goddard.

46:19

I think he's gonna be a future star in this league.

46:22

So the fact that they're talking about it and they're

46:24

getting them involved already. He's had a good off

46:26

season in preseason, I think it's

46:28

gonna cut a little bit into Earth, So I

46:30

wouldn't go out of Highers Earth. And we've actually

46:33

seen Earth's drop into

46:35

the fifth and six rounds in some drafts now,

46:37

so he's definitely fallen. Kittle.

46:39

I don't think it's gonna fall as far, just because,

46:42

look, the wide receiver corps isn't coming together

46:44

as much as they want. You know, early in the preseason

46:46

they said they were gonna get rid of uh Golden

46:49

Goldwin. Uh Marky's Golden

46:52

Goodwin. Damn. I couldn't get that out of my mouth. Mark

46:54

He's Goodwin. Now all of a sudden, he's a starter.

46:57

Um Dante Pettis.

46:59

You know, everybody coming into the season

47:01

thought he was gonna be there number one and go to

47:04

guy, and he's had a terrible off season,

47:06

yet he still seems to be their starters.

47:08

So while they're you know,

47:10

entrenches their starters right now, none

47:13

of them have really showcased much

47:15

to stand out, and that scares

47:17

me. So I could see Kittle just getting

47:19

as much use as as he got last year, just

47:22

based on the fact that he could very well be the best

47:24

receiver they have on that team right now. So

47:27

I'm not worried about Kittles. So I have Kittle

47:29

too, behind Kurt behind uh

47:32

Kurt's and Art's

47:35

a little Kelsey and Hurts a little while

47:37

later. Uh, So I

47:39

have no problem taking Kelsey that

47:41

really, he definitely gives you a definitive edge.

47:44

In my projections, I have him at fifty

47:46

points higher than any other tight end this year,

47:49

so I definitely believe in him.

47:51

And that that one draft I told you

47:53

about that I grabbed mahomes

47:55

and three a couple of weeks ago, I grabbed

47:58

Kelsey and one actually grabbed Damian

48:00

Williamson too too. I wanted to see what the Casey

48:02

stack would do, but I did do that,

48:04

So I can't say I would never with

48:08

the majority of the year league you're playing, imagine you've

48:10

done but every possible strategy.

48:13

I have draft. I just draft. I

48:15

just drafted a league the other night, where my caveat

48:18

going into the league was I was gonna draft

48:20

to play players I had on no other

48:23

no other leagues, and it really

48:25

turned out to be quite hard, but

48:28

I did it. I don't

48:31

draft anywhere else. Let's

48:33

talk about that for a second. Give me some

48:35

of your players that I understand, and you

48:38

know you're gonna you're gonna have every player, but

48:40

that generally you don't want

48:42

and give me. Give me some players and the reasons why. Okay,

48:46

let's see you go right off the top. I mean four Nett always

48:48

always tops that list for me. I

48:51

don't normally draft him. Look, I I know he

48:53

could have given sixteen years, could be a top

48:55

running back in the league based on sheer volume,

48:58

But I just don't think he's a good running back. And

49:00

I just won't buy it. Between you know, the injury

49:03

history and the idiocy injury. I've

49:05

stayed away pretty much all um.

49:08

I haven't grabbed a lot of Levian Bell

49:10

this year just because he's going too early

49:13

for me. I just don't Look.

49:15

I know he's a good running back. I get all that. It's

49:17

more of the offense. That worries me more than Bell

49:19

does, So I worry about that. Uh,

49:22

let's see some other guys. I'm trying to go through the top of

49:24

my head. Melvin Gordon I've absolutely stayed

49:26

away from just because I am concerned he sits up

49:28

a good part of the year unless

49:31

they do make a trade. I'm trying to think of some other names

49:33

here. Uh. I

49:35

don't normally grab Stefon Diggs. I

49:38

think he's too up and down. Uh He's

49:40

you know, all over the board. He'll give you some great weeks,

49:43

but he'll give you some weeks where he just absolutely disappears.

49:46

Uh. Let's see. Um, I'm a little

49:49

off Robert Woods this year just because

49:51

I think with Cup coming back, I think Woods takes

49:53

a big hit. And then the other

49:55

one. Man, I was just thinking of Robert

49:59

Woods and uh, wells

50:01

man, I had another one in my head that was a perfect example,

50:04

and now I just went out. Sorry,

50:06

guys, trying to go through this real quick. D

50:09

J. Moore, I I don't look, I think he's gonna

50:11

be a good wide receiver. I'm just not betting

50:13

on him where where his current a DP is coming

50:15

from. Much rather have Curtis Samuel later

50:18

h good five or six rounds later in some cases,

50:21

and I just think overall he's much

50:23

better value rather have a shot at that.

50:26

UM who else did we include?

50:29

Uh? Austin

50:34

Ekeler is being overvalued

50:37

in my eyes right now, coming up too

50:39

high, so I won't take I haven't taken

50:41

much of him. Tarik coh and I haven't taken

50:43

much of him. Um D

50:46

D. Westbrook. I haven't taken much of him

50:49

because he got off to a bad start in preasing

50:51

but in O t A s and

50:54

training camp. But he's really starting to come on lately,

50:56

so that might change in the later drafts.

50:59

I might have some investment in him.

51:01

Corey Davis is another one I just won't draft,

51:03

going too high for me in that offense.

51:06

Now they're talking about maybe Tannehill starting,

51:08

so there's definitely quite a few people. Sammy Watkins

51:11

is another one. I just can't stay healthy

51:13

long enough to really put up a great season. Has

51:15

a couple of good games, but that's about

51:17

it. Uh So that that's a good core. But there's

51:19

definitely a lot of guys I could name. Yeah,

51:23

I can see I'm not gonna enjoy being a drafting anywhere

51:25

near you on thurs because you and I are in the same

51:27

wavelength. I think. Uh, I might have only decreed

51:29

one player you name there. I'm not gonna tell you who it is. Uh,

51:32

But other than that, I was pretty much humble with everybody

51:35

else do you named? As far as players, I'm not big

51:37

on either. So you said you have three,

51:39

I have five with me two spots a wave from each each

51:41

other. That's not going to be enjoyable. I

51:43

never like to draft anyway near Scott angle eid because

51:45

he and I always thought the same too, so I knew he

51:47

was gonna steal some of my players. Uh, you

51:50

know, be pencil I call him pencil breakers. When

51:52

somebody snipes you over and over again. I don't get

51:54

mad once, you know, not the three or four times,

51:56

and then then I called pencil breakers because it's

51:58

just annoys time. I'll

52:01

tell you my biggest My best experience

52:03

with Scott angle was back

52:05

in eleven. We did that Fantasy

52:08

Football Expert Expo down in Atlantic

52:10

City, and we did a live draft

52:13

for serious Um on air

52:15

right there at the expo. And

52:18

I had never met Scott before. I had worked

52:20

with him a couple of times. I had talked to him on you

52:23

know phone a couple of times. We've never met

52:25

him in person. And we ended up

52:27

sitting right next to each other for the

52:29

draft. And my

52:31

experience was every single time somebody

52:34

in the draft said the word ball, football,

52:36

ball, any any combination, Scott

52:39

would lean over to me and go he said,

52:42

Paul d He said ball

52:44

every single freaking time for their

52:47

draft. And if you go back, you know

52:49

I've gone back and listened to the taping of it, you

52:52

can always hear me in the background say cut

52:54

it out, Scott, cut it out. We're

52:57

on air, cut it out. Um. So,

52:59

yeah, it was kind of funny. We had a great time there.

53:01

But yeah, that was my real introduction

53:04

to to Scott Angle as I know him

53:06

today. I

53:09

mean, I I enjoyed with Scott and he was he was a lot

53:11

of fun to work with. I mean I was there when he was was

53:14

kiss Regalia back when we were on

53:16

the show. I'm like, oh my god, he is

53:18

this crazy? Uh he he

53:23

He dressed up as a referee once to

53:25

do a show and because

53:27

he found he found out that I you know, ref hockeys,

53:29

goes, oh, bring a referee to up and bring a yellow flag every

53:33

time I didn't like something that he said, I had to throw the

53:35

flag, and I say, oh

53:37

my god, this is this is nuts. But

53:39

the thing about Beavis and butt head pull, he said,

53:41

Bull, that's that's him in befone. He used to do that all

53:43

the time. You know, those two together.

53:46

So yeah, that that's so Scott.

53:48

This is do that during a draft. Uh god,

53:50

plus uh he

53:53

said, Bull, Oh

53:55

god, um god,

53:57

I mean really all right? Uh so,

54:00

yeah, you're gonna be a problem for me on Thursday. I don't. But I don't

54:03

like guys who are in the same way like this man, like guys who

54:05

obviously they are gonna be worried about the players or

54:07

a light players. I don't because then they might you

54:09

might take them. Who's but you know who's between us? I

54:13

don't anymore closely, email hold one, let me see

54:15

if I can find. It's probably

54:17

a fan anyway, so it wouldn't matter. Actually

54:20

I got a right there between Yeah, big time

54:22

or Steve is in between us, all

54:25

right, so we'll see Steve does Uh,

54:29

Steve is a pretty contractor. I'll throw

54:31

some wrenches into our game. And

54:34

it's as a start a regularly like, so pretty

54:36

much our standard leader is we didn't make a super Oh it's twelve

54:38

team. Did you go super flex? He originally

54:40

said four team, and you know, and I thought that was a bad idea. Go,

54:43

let's face it, A couple of teams are not gonna have quarterbacks

54:45

at all. Yeah, we're gonna be definitely

54:47

talking back into the super flex in the twelve team

54:49

or I agree, absolutely problems.

54:52

I think Chris is out in the first couple

54:54

of days next week. We

54:59

may not see him until Thursday, which is the night

55:01

of the draft. Supposedly, all right there,

55:04

we'll be football friends at Jim Dana, Uh, well, we

55:06

will be doing it. I don't know if I'm hosting. I don't

55:08

know if we're gonna have another host. Uh, we'll

55:10

see. We'll see what comes up to there, but we'll we're

55:12

doing what the a f C West this week,

55:15

Jim, I don't know. I just look

55:17

at it a couple of minutes before the show

55:19

and see what team he wants to talk about. This

55:22

is you're ahead of me. I ac resually don't look at all. I

55:25

think I'm pretty sure that's the only division we haven't done

55:27

I'm not a hundred percent sure here, but I

55:29

know we've done did the Jets because I couldn't remember

55:31

that. So we did the East because I could remember the Jets finished

55:34

last last year. I remember talking about

55:36

Pittsburgh. I think, trying

55:38

to look really quick, we

55:40

couldn't be the

55:43

entire a f c. Um.

55:47

I'm pretty sure it's the West. I think the West. Yeah,

55:50

I'm not at home, but I don't think we did the NFC

55:52

West either. I

55:55

thought we were right on target to fish food the seed starts.

55:58

I'm not He's no he we did the NFC. We

56:00

did because we went overall. You know, well, we

56:02

did the world our World Series are stuper Bowl

56:04

picks and stuff like that. We did do the entire NFC.

56:06

I remember doing that. So I'm

56:09

just not so sure what division with you next week. You'll find out

56:11

on Monday. Everybody will be surprised that the rest of us. So
