This is Fantasy Football Today from CBS Sports. What a play!
Can you believe this?
No, I can't.
It's time to dominate your fantasy league.
Off to the races and he stays at his feet.
This is gonna go the distance.
Now here's some combination of Adam, Dave, Jamie and Heath.
It's mailbag time. What's up everybody?
Welcome to Fantasy Football Today presented by
BedMGM, the sportsbook born in Vegas.
Ooh, we got a fun one tonight.
It is Thursday night.
You know, we get a little goofy at night.
Like Dan's got, Dan doesn't even really seem to have
the lights on in his room.
I've got some, I've got as much lights on as I can get in this room.
Is the window open?
The window is closed.
There will be no wind gusts that take over this podcast.
I'm just happy to have the band back together.
Okay.
It's been a few weeks since we've had the crew.
Well, it's nice that you're working again.
No, no, no.
Don't pull that on me.
Don't pull that on me.
There's a 24 hour putt putt near you if you want to hit the lids.
Why are you stealing my jokes?
Why you said that?
I said he's probably a 24 hour Topgolf.
You did say Topgolf.
I don't think you said 24 hours, but you said Topgolf.
But yeah, all right.
Changed to putt putt.
I made it better.
Anyway, we got real good fantasy cops for you on this episode.
We got some real good fantasy cops.
It makes me almost want to start with fantasy cops.
I almost want to hit the button on the mixer right now,
but I'm not going to.
We're going to go through some emails,
fantasyfootballatcbsi.com.
That's the letter I.
Quick spoiler question.
Quick spoiler question.
Okay.
When we get the fantasy cops.
Dan's back.
When we get the fantasy cops,
will there be another situation where I may refer to
someone as a menace to society? I don't think so. But maybe, maybe I did. I did. Beyond
the box where with Dan and Jacob last week. And I think the show started and Jacob didn't
talk for 14 minutes. That's how he likes it. He said said I want to just be in the background of this episode
I'm sure you said that okay
Questions and all of you joining us about Jamie start up in his career. There was a lot of what's not me. It was not me All right. All right. Let's get to the to the emails here again fantasy football at CBSI comm
ooh
Right out of the gate we we get one from Eric says,
Can someone really be ranked first in his position group
most weeks when he's never finished as the number one
receiver in a given week hasn't gone over 25 points all season?
Sure, consistently good, but has never gone off like chase or
St. Brown. Do you know who? Eric! Is referring to?
Justin Jefferson.
Justin Jefferson.
Yeah.
Justin Jefferson for the season
is the number three wide receiver in fantasy,
but he's sixth per game in non PPR,
eighth per game in full PPR.
And here's where he's finished per by week.
17th, ninth, 12th, 11th, 22nd, fourth, 11th,
ninth, 32nd, and 27th.
And it is weird to say those numbers
and for him to be the number,
to be a top eight wide receiver per game
when he's only been top eight once.
He's higher than ninth one time all season,
you know, on a week to week basis.
I just thought that was a really cool topic
and interesting view on Justin Jefferson, Jamie.
I just thought that was a really cool topic and interesting view on Justin Jefferson, Jamie.
You know, I wonder how many times,
I'm trying to think like the guys this week.
So you got AJ Brown, Amaro St. Brown's done it
a couple of times.
He's been, I shouldn't say he has done it a couple of times.
It feels like he's done it a couple of times.
I don't usually look at week to week like finishes.
So that's probably a mistake on my part to factor that in.
You know, I usually just look ahead
and what I think is gonna happen for the week as opposed
to what's happened previously.
Again, from a week to week basis, I know Justin Jefferson's having a fantastic season.
So it's not an easy week when you look at those guys at the top.
I think it speaks a little bit.
Go ahead, Adam.
What do you got for me?
This guy, Chase, in the chat says, I hate you, Adam. What do you got for me? This guy, chase in the chat says, I hate you, dad. And dad replies, it's mutual. Chad,
chase, you look like a chat. He called him Chad accidentally.
I said, Hey, sorry, it's chase, but you look like a chat. And I'm sure he is a chat,
but back to this analysis, I will say this, I think it speaks a little bit to the state of
position. We went, we did re-ranking positions rest of season and the top eight players overall.
And I wonder if it would be different for you guys.
We're all running backs one through 10.
And then when you get to this stat, guess who the wide receiver for overall is this
season.
It makes no sense when you hear this name.
Oh, it's Garrett Wilson.
Yeah, it's Garrett Wilson.
Does Garrett Wilson feel like a wide receiver for overall in any world?
No.
And it just shows how much the landscape has flipped and listen to this stat.
One last crazy stat out of all the runnings back drafted in the top 32.
There's only actually if Pacheco plays this week, all of them will be
healthy and playing in this week.
Amazing.
That is amazing.
That's insane. Like we would have normally eight, nine in running back injuries Amazing. All of them. That is amazing. That's insane.
Like we would have normally eight, nine
running back injuries at minimum by now.
What'd you see at the top?
The top four running backs are in points per game.
All the old guys.
Marking Henry.
I thought Kyrant.
No, not Kyrant.
Seguin, Henry, Nick, and Kamara.
Yeah.
Wow.
They're all 27 years old. What a year for fantasy. All right, Mixed, and Camaro. Yeah, wow. They're all 27-year-olds.
What a year for fantasy.
All right, next up, Jack from Brazil.
When I'm deciding which quarterback to play
in a given week, I always look at defenses
versus the position.
Often there are significant differences in the ranking
of a defense's success against quarterbacks
and wide receivers.
Since a quarterback's success is based mostly
on passing yards and touchdowns,
I don't understand why the same defense ranks high
against quarterbacks, but not receivers or vice versa.
Am I overlooking something?
Should I still consider how a defense ranks
against wide receivers when deciding
which quarterback to start?
So I guess Detroit's a good example of this.
They're terrible against receivers,
but they're great against quarterbacks.
They don't get a lot of touchdowns.
Yeah, so because PPR, you know,
those catches count for so much.
And then you also have to look at,
well, is this maybe team,
are they bad against mobile quarterbacks,
which could mean they're, you know,
they face a lot of guys who have rushing touchdowns.
So they give up points to quarterbacks,
but not wide receivers.
Just, yeah, just look at,
look at the fantasy points allowed at quarterbacks.
Don't worry about wide receivers. And, but then take a look and the fantasy points allowed at quarterbacks. Don't worry about wide receivers and
but then take a look and see if it's a lot of rushing touchdowns
because that's one thing that could skew it. Tim, I was
offered Nico Collins for Kyron Williams in PPR. I'm nine and
two. I've clinched a playoff berth, but I'd like a buy give
up Kyron Williams. He still has Brice Camara and Nick Chubb and get Nico Collins. He could use the wide receiver.
Tanner Iskra It's a yes for me, Ezean. Full PPR. I know it's a risky play because I like Kyron.
He's one of the, what, 8, 10 guys who get every snap it feels like. But full PPR, the upside,
Houston schedule could be some shootouts coming up potentially. I mean, that's hard to believe
right now with the way that offense is playing, but it's possible. I think you take this chance in PPR. Yeah, you have the running back
core to make this deal. You know, so I think, you know, to go back to your point, Dan, like
if we're redrafting right now, I wouldn't be surprised if Nico goes ahead of Kyron.
Yeah. And that might be the break point, right, for like a couple receivers that get into
that top 10.
One thing that we need to reevaluate for next year, Robert Turbin, who's on our Wednesday
show on CBS Sports Network, he brought this up that we're getting more bell cow running
backs this year.
We're not getting as many committees, to your point, Dan, about Kyron, would you say eight
running backs that are getting are getting, you know,
the majority of the, I wonder if it's more, you know, I think it is more.
I just, yeah.
You know, you just look at what the, what the league has turned into and,
and this is what it used to be.
You know, this is what, what used to make running back such a dominant
position for fantasy managers is that you got not tandem, not these split
backfields, you know, and it'd be great if that continues.
It's the combo of that.
Plus with all the defense is playing so much too high and so much inviting the
run, we're getting so many teams being like, all right, you want me to,
you daring me to run it.
I will run it and I'll build my offense off of it.
But you know, it's funny, you're talking about how it used to be.
Like we used to, I remember the days this early for me, and this was
probably mid range for you, Jamie, where it was just the first two rounds are all running backs.
We didn't stray off running back for so many picks.
It was almost like you're not taking a running back.
And it was crazy to not take a running back in that range.
No matter the format.
Yeah. I mean, take a look over Adam's shoulder.
That was Dave's strategy for years.
Yeah.
All right. This is from Jack.
Jack says, gray, the trade dear Vince, Weeb and Hank.
Vince and Hank, Vince Vaughn?
No.
Weeb should really give it away.
Weeb?
This is a movie reference I assume?
No, this is a coach reference.
Coach?
Weeb Eubanks.
Weeb Eubanks is a, is it Eubank or Eubanks?
He's a Jets, old Jets coach.
Wow. When was that?
I've heard of the other two.
I had never heard of that Jets coach.
I can't believe I didn't know Jets coach had said.
10 team PPR.
I receive Breeze Hall, Marvin Harrison,
and the Vikings DST.
So he gets Breeze Hall, Marvin Harrison, and the Vikings DST. So he gets Breeze Hall, Marvin Harrison
and the Vikings DST.
He gives up a lot.
Pacheco, Higgins and Chase Brown.
No.
Breeze Hall, Marvin Harrison and the Vikings DST
for Pacheco.
Higgins and Chase Brown.
He's giving up Pacheco, Higgins and Chase Brown. I guess giving up Pacheco, Higgins and Chase Brown.
I guess, I mean, it doesn't even make sense
like a bye week situation because Breeze Hall's on a bye.
So it's not like you'd be trading away, you know,
those guys to get points now.
They don't like it.
I think I'm gonna say it.
I think I'd rather have Chase Brown than Breeze Hall.
Ooh.
That schedule is beautiful though for the Jets.
Yeah, the Jets are good.
They're the worst.
They're so bad.
The defenses that are playing the jets are like,
ooh, our schedule is great coming up.
We have the jets.
Yeah, but you say that and he's coming off
a monster game now.
Yeah.
I know, but like the jet's all still struggling.
And they gave him like 38 carries last year
in week 18 or whatever.
Like they proved they will play him in a lost season.
All right. One thing I will add to that, I agree with you guys is probably a no, but
just look, be on the lookout for Marvin Harrison coming out of the bye week. I think Arizona
put, cause we've been looking at kind of the route tree for Harrison. It's evolved a lot
over the course of the season leading into the buy. They're giving him more of those
layup routes underneath more horizontal. I think coming out of the buy, they'll, they'll
utilize him even more and he'll be a better PPR place. I think coming out of the buy, they'll utilize him even more
and he'll be a better PPR place.
I'm actually high on him rest of season.
Yeah, I totally agree.
But you just-
Still too much.
Can he get, and this is gonna sound funny
just given how we drafted these guys,
but can he get to T Higgins level?
Good point.
Yeah, I don't-
Does that-
That's what we need to see.
Cause Higgins gets even great.

Come back with more of your questions on Fantasy Football Today.
So, I first came to Edward Jones with a great deal of trepidation when I first met with
my advisor. And I really was feeling vulnerable about what I would have to Edward Jones with a great deal of trepidation. When I first met with my advisor, I really was feeling vulnerable about what I would
have to share.
I was, of course, pleasantly surprised to find that there was absolutely no judgment
and a lot of support.
And when it was time to get serious, he really took my hand and helped me to do that.

Probably a happy guy.
Kyler or Baker Mayfield, who would you rather have this week?
Rest, oh.
Still Kyler for me.
Baker's gonna have a good game though

Kareem Hunt, if Pacheco plays or Amir Abdullah?
Kareem Hunt either way.
Yeah, Kareem Hunt.
I can't go here.
And Quinton Johnston or Deandre Hopkins?
Quinton Johnston for me.
I'll go Hopkins.
I think this could be a get right game
for the Chiefs offense. At least I'm hoping for that. I'll go Hopkins. I think this could be a get right game for the chiefs offense.
At least I'm hoping for that.
Next email is from Scott.
Hey, Joe Bob, O W and Seth.
Joe Bob, O W and no idea.
North Dallas, Joe Bob, North Dallas 40.
No, one of the best football movies ever.
That's never never seen it. I have AJ Brown, Nico Collins, Cooper Cup,
Terry McLaurin and Romo Dunze.
Sit two of them.
Sit Romo Dunze and one more.
AJ Brown, Nico Collins, Cooper Cup, Terry McLaurin.
I'll sit McLaurin.
It's between McLaurin and Cup for me
just because the matchup against Philly
is not gonna be easy for them.
I'll be consensus with Dan.
So we're on the same page.
So sit McCoy and sit two of these running backs.
Kyron Pollard, Chuba Hubbard, Bucky Irving.
I said Hubbard and Irving.
I'm gonna say Hubbard and Pollard.
PS is Adam related to Joe Flacco?
I look a little like Joe Flacco.
You look a little like Joe Flacco, but you're like seven inches smaller and 140 pounds lighter,
I would say.
The only thing that you guys have in common is you shave at 9 a.m. and you have a beard
by 5 p.m.
David from Chattanooga says, grade the trade.
10 team PPR league, 10 team full PPR
league trade Anthony Richardson, get Quentin Johnston.
Zero context by the way.
Ken, this is a tough one with no context.
I assume without context that this is a 10 team league.
You can get quarterbacks pretty easily that are startable.
So I would do the trade.
Yeah, I'll say B minus.
All right.
It's a bad day.
Jeremy Wilson says Adam looks like Sandler.
I don't look like Adam Sandler.
No, you don't look like Adam Sandler at all.
I mean, I like, we have a lot in common.
I feel like it's a stereotype to be honest with you.
I did feel that way too.
I'm just gonna call it out.
I did feel that way, yeah.
I felt that way.
All you gotta do is just make something up
and you're good. And I'm just gonna throw his name out. It's Jeremy Wilson, okay. way, yeah. I felt that way. All you gotta do is just make something rhyme and you're good.
And I'm just gonna throw his name out.
It's Jeremy Wilson, okay.
Okay, yeah.
All right, Bo wants us to bench a wide receiver.
Very similar question here.
Cup, A.J. Brown, Nico Collins, or Joann Jennings?
Wow, Cup for me.
It's Cup for me.
I can't bench Joann Jennings. Adam, we're at the point
now where we can clearly say John Jennings is a every week starter.
You know, it's Thursday night for us. By the time you're hearing this, you already have
a Friday practice report and all that stuff. But as we sit here today, we don't know if
Brock Purdy is playing. True. There was that weird Grant Cohen report where he's like,
can't even throw the ball. Yeah. So I'm a little nervous about that. In fact, there's no chance even if Brock birdie plays, I'm not
starting to Juan Jennings over Nico AJ or cup.
I'll start over.
You get, are we going to get the, uh, the pastor?
Not what's that?
Who's the pastor?
Not what's their backup?
Oh, Josh, Josh, not going to be dobs.
I thought who would have thought it's going to be the other guy.
Oh, I saw a report that said it's going to be what's his name.
Hold on a second.
But but like the last two, it's going to be it's gonna be not Brandon Allen.
Really?
I don't know.
I'll look into it.
I put this comment up for Jamie,
but he's not even paying attention.
Okay, no, but seriously, like the last two weeks,
we've had Joanne Jennings against Tampa Bay
and without George Kittle,
we're really gonna start him over Cooper Cup?
I'm not doing that.
I am.
Yeah, I am.
So team Joanne Jennings.
All right, Benji, Benji running back.
Do we know the Thursday practice report for Jerry Alexander?
Oh, he's out. He said he can gonna miss.
He could miss a lot of time with his like a he's like a torn something.
So there you go.
I would not expect Jerry Alexander to play, but he was vague about it.
Bench one running back.
James Connor, David Montgomery.
Sorry. Okay. Bencher running back. Montgomery, James Connor, David Montgomery. I'm sorry. Okay. Bencher running back Montgomery, James Connor, Brian Robinson
Jr.
What's the format?
We know it's not going to be Brian Robinson Jr. That's a
game we started last week.
If it's non PPR, you're benching Connor. If it's full PPR, I'm
probably benching Montgomery.
It's so hard for me to bench Montgomery.
I'll bench Connor.
Okay.
And then the last question is if you're benching Connor or Montgomery and you're benching Cooper
Cup, you get to pick one of them as your flex.
Wow.
And it was non PPR, right?
Is that what you said?
No, no.
We don't have, I don't know.
Oh, another no context.
Guys, let's get the context, please.
We need to know the format, but.
Yeah, scoring is very important.
I'll start cup over Connor.
Same.
This is from Chris, half PPR,
start Rico Dowdell or Romo Dunze?
Odunze.
Sorry, I was reading a comment about Adam
that made me laugh, Odunze.
Oh, jeez.
I hadn't read it, but we can't read that one on there.
That's for the chat only.
Okay, from Anthony.
Hey, hi, Derek, TJ and JJ.
I'm facing my twin brother this week,
so I really need this win.
Four point per passing touchdown league,
Baker Mayfield or Justin Herbert?
Herbert. Yeah. Herber.
Yeah.
From Rob, would you rather have acres,
Roshan or Singletary?
Rest of the year.
This week, this week.
Oh, acres, Roshan or Singletary.
Roshan.
Okay.
Not thrilled, but Roshan.
From Rob, Gray the Trade.
Good morning.
He says, good morning, Steve, Carl and Eddie.
You know this one, Adam?
Of course.
Is it a movie?
Did I do that?
Oh, Family Matters.
There you go.
You've seen Family Matters?
Wait, Steve, Carl's the dad.
Steve Urkel.
And then who's Eddie? Eddie's the brother? Brother, yeah. Oh God, Steve Urkel, and then who's Eddie?
That brother brother.
Yeah.
Okay. What a forgettable character.
Steve, Carl and Eddie, that is such a, is he not,
is the brother like, I mean the Eddie forget it.
Like right.
There's so much more people who make that show are the two I
named who Carl
about Laura, which one's Laura, which one's Laura?
That's the girl that that Urkel's obsessed with.
I have seen so few episodes of this show.
OK, so I just see three of the ones I've seen.
Her goal stood out as funny and obviously the dad was the funniest.
OK, great.
Love the mail.
But this is so appropriate.
Love the mail bag show,
but have been missing Dan's random and weird takes
and trying to tell something quick,
but then takes five minutes.
Can you grade the following trade
in a 12 team half PPR keeper league?
Give Malik neighbors and Ken Walker,
get George Pickens and Jameer Gibbs.
Oh.
I think it's like a B, like a straight fair trade.
You're getting Pickens and Gibbs?
Yeah.
That's an A for me.
You're giving up neighbors.
You're losing a little bit there, right?
I don't know what the independent of the keeper value.
I love the trade.
I like Pickens better than neighbors
and I like Gibbs better than Walker.
I don't know what the keeper values are. Why are you keeper values are. This comment, this could be really funny.
Dan, thoughts on pickleball? Yeah, I have some thoughts on it. Should I get to it?
Yes, you should. This one could go a little long. This one I'll warn you.
I'll give it you one minute. Okay, one minute. Played probably six,
seven times. A lot of people tell me how much they love it. My uncle, my aunt, my friend who moved down to Florida
played with him.
He's been playing for months.
I beat him 11-0.
He couldn't get a point off me in singles.
I find it to be lazy.
A very lazy sport is how I would describe pickleball.
I would never play it over tennis
if I had the opportunity to play both.
I don't really understand the hype behind it.
Again, a very lazy sport, not much movement.
You come to net, actually hurt my knees,
because there's a lot of dumb stop and start to get to net.
They all rush to net every play.
Lazy sport.
That's how it is.
That was good.
That was good.
Let's stay in on pickleball.
Thank you.
Let's go to our next.
By the way, Dan, we were having a discussion
of what sports you could beat Heathen.
Oh, that one was, is that on the show and I missed it?
Yeah, it was today, I think.
And what did you come up with?
Tennis.
No, it was yesterday.
Tennis is that's all?
That's the only one I thought we came up with.
I'm not gonna, first of all, let's just keep things in mind.
How old is Heath right now?
45 I think.
He is 42 I think, 41.
He's not a 45.
He's really, he is young.
I would think that like my youth could help me win some stuff
Is that not very tall like he's he's so tall
I don't want to throw basketball out there because he's a coach. Oh gosh. No, don't don't yeah
I don't want to throw that. I know he used to be a good golfer. So I'm definitely not beating him in that
Here's the thing
Heath really like Heath is sure that he can beat me in tennis
That shouldn't be the case.
Right. Like I feel like I play it all or not.
I don't think so.
He just he's facing it on athleticism.
He saw us play on the live stream and he thinks he's going to kill me.
But the live stream looked like it was in half speed.
Like the live stream looked like it was in half speed.
Thank you for saying that.
We got so screwed on that live stream, Adam.
Like it looked like we were playing such bad tennis.
We was the fall was the pace was much better than that live stream show.
That live stream was not a good representation.
Next year we bring in the big guns.
We bring in the real cameras or have commentators.
We need like we need something to make that.
That was not as bad as it looked.
Let me get back to the emails here from Aaron.
Grade the trade 12 team PPR.
Oh, oh wait.
But he also thinks based on the live stream,
he thinks he can beat you in tennis and you'd say.
No he didn't, no he did not.
Yes he did.
No he didn't.
What, yes he did.
No he said Dan would beat him in tennis.
Are you sure?
Yes.
Maybe I had to convince him of that.
All right, Aaron says grade the trade, 12 team PPR,
give Dobbins and Hubbard, get Kamara and Purdy.
I mean, we need to know context.
Like, does this guy have the-
Okay, all right, all right.
Give Dobbins and Hubbard get Kamara and Purdy.
He has Bucky Irving, Saquon Barkley and Kareem Hunt.
Well, Hunt's about to die off for fantasy purposes.
So he's two backs.
I would do this trade.
Yeah, you're at the point where you're getting
the best player.
Three backs.
Then you're gonna roll out Saquon and Kamara
in the playoffs?
Yeah.
I'm good with it.
You can go three backs rest of the season.
This is Yo Tom from Israel.
He says, hey, dear Leroy, Tony, Timothy and Abby.
Leroy, Tony, Timothy and Abby.
NCIS, yeah, I wouldn't.
No shot, no shot.
Okay, how many of those are there?
12 team, full PPR league, I need to pick a running back.
James Connor or Tyrone Tracy?
Tracy for me.
Tracy.
There's a lot of James Connor disrespect.
Yeah.
Respect, I mean, there's great players
that you're comparing them to.
And Tracy's been having a nice season so far.
Isn't Connor having a nice season?
Am I missing something?
Yeah, but I just like the matchup better for him.
Yeah.
All right.
I just wanna kind of see how things go
with DeVito the first week.
Sure.
There might not be a lot of offense.
I'm looking at James Connor's targets.
Three, five, four, three, three 335 in his last six games. That's
enough to put him over the edge for me. Because Tracy hasn't really gotten them other than the
game neighbors was out. And I have no idea if DeVito is going to throw to him or not.
DeVito did have a very high running back target rate last year for what that's what I'm counting
on. Yeah, I just don't know because he didn't have neighbors last year. But but he did. He
didn't throw a lot.
He only threw like 26 passes per game, but he had a very high running back target rate.
All right, we're gonna take a break here.
Well, we're not gonna take a break.
We just took a break, right?
We should keep it going.
So let's get to the fantasy cops.
Here we go.
We got a bunch of them today.
And the first one is from Brandon. Brandon says, for the first time ever, I am seeing cross
league collusion. Two trades took place in different leagues yesterday that were completely
one sided. In one league and out of playoff four and seven team traded Xavier worthy, CJ Stroud,
and Mark Andrews.
Oh, it's a bad one.
Then in another league, the four and seven manager
who traded St. Brown and golf,
he's five and six in this other league
and he has the last playoff spot.
The eight and three team that he traded with in league A
is also in league B and he's three and three team that he traded with in league A is also in
league B and he's three and eight. And he traded James Cook and Lad McConkey for MVS
and Brian Thomas.
No way.
So they both made-
This is legitimately just like as clear cut collusion as it gets.
How many of the other similar managers are in both leagues?
Wait, it gets worse.
These trades happened within five minutes of each other.
So funny, they tried to like make it look like it was okay
because like they only ripped them off
with like one player in each deal.
Like they threw back one piece that mattered,
Brian Toms or whatever,
but then they didn't even do it right
because they did it within five minutes of each other.
Luckily, both myself and the other commissioner are in both of these leagues and reverse the
trades in each league.
They are denying the collusion, but the evidence seems obvious.
What should their evidence be, if anything?
Which of their evidence be or their consequence?
It says evidence, but I guess whatever you want it to be. I mean, you don't want to kick people out of leagues.
Yes, you do.
No, no.
If two people are colluding, you kick them out of a league.
I don't understand this take that you guys always have.
Like, so confused by it.
We can play golf with this.
We have no more friends that's here and I'm kicking people out of all these fantasy leagues.
Exactly.
I'm not kicking people out of fantasy leagues.
No one in my leagues is cheating. Collusion is cheating. I Exactly. I'm not kicking people out of fantasy leagues. No one in my leagues is cheating.
Collusion is cheating.
I guarantee if you were...
I'm very concerned and confused by these takes.
If you were in your league with your friends...
You're playing it with people who are cheating.
You would not kick them out.
And then you just say,
eh, it's all right, we'll reverse the trade.
Do you commission any leagues, Dan?
Yes.
And you would legitimately kick your friends out of fantasy leagues?
If they were cheating, if they were caught cheating, of course.
They're your friends.
You would just kick them out immediately.
Well, I have friends with integrity, so they wouldn't cheat. Okay,, if they were caught cheating, you would do them out immediately.
Well I have like friends with integrity so they wouldn't cheat.
No one.
But they did.
Then they wouldn't probably wouldn't be my friends.
Like this is a serious league.
It's our eight 17th year and we started in 2007.
Like no one's cheated.
No one's thought of cheating.
Right.
But you wouldn't do it.
You wouldn't take that drastic step.
There are no consequences here.
Just reverse the title.
No, that's it. I think the whole league would go. I think you've got to punish are no consequences here. Just reverse the trade. I don't know if that's it.
I think the whole league would call it.
No, I think you've got to punish them in some way.
You reverse the trade.
Oh, here's a must punishment if at least.
Either you dock them fab.
I don't know if you don't allow them to make any more trades this year or next year.
There's got to be some sort of penalty for it.
This is probably a buy-in league too. So like it's,
it's dirty to me. Like you just can't just cheat and then get away and get caught and then get
reversed and be like, yeah, it's all right. You hopefully you guys just won't do it again.
And nothing just forget about it for a little while.
All right. This is very maybe you dock them a draft pick next year.
At least. All right, from Melissa.
Okay, so my husband and I are in a league together.
My team has no chance of making the playoffs,
and my husband has a mild chance of making the playoffs.
We decided I should trade him Isaiah Pacheco for Tyler Algier.
We didn't think it was that egregious of a trade.
Apparently, everyone in our league thought it was horrible.
So the trade's been reversed. I just it was horrible. So the trades been reversed.
I just want your opinion.
Was the trade that bad?
Should it have been reversed?
My Pacheco for his Tyler Algier,
when she's out of the playoffs, he's on the cusp.
Also to note, no one in this league ever trades.
So if we don't trade with each other,
no one will trade with us or anyone.
Yeah, see, this is how it's supposed to go.
This is the type of situation
where you don't kick somebody out.
It's like an honest error.
She's being like, you know, it sounds like she understands
like, okay, this is the definition of collusion.
This is collusion, right? I don't mean it like that. It's obviously collusion, but she's
saying it like, look,
The guy out of league commissioner.
Hold on, hold on, hold on. Let me explain myself. It's obviously collusion. You can't
let it go through it to answer her question, it's a terrible trade.
It should not go through.
But at least she's saying like, is there something wrong with this?
If there is, I really don't want it to happen because that's not fair.
The other people are just like, no, the trade wasn't collusion.
Let it go through.
Even though we did it five minutes within the other one.
That is like bad intention to me.
Timeout here.
Timeout.
Is it really that bad of a trade?
Pacheco Pacheco for Algear.
Are you out of your mind with how good Kareem hunt has been and how conservative
they've been in the red zone and how much they're running the ball?
Yeah, that's exactly what, yeah.
Because I'm saying that Pacheco could be useless and Algear is the top handcuff.
Adam.
I look, I, I, I agree.
Adam.
All right. Just trade. You did the other time, like McCaffrey for someone like the week McCaffrey came is the top handcuff. I look, I agree. Adam, Adam.
Who was that trade you did the other time,
like McCaffrey for someone like the week McCaffrey came back?
Who did that end up being?
It was Aaron Jones and Wanda Robinson for McCaffrey.
It was proposed to be, I accepted it.
I didn't do anything wrong.
I forgot about that until just now.
But here, the big problem here, honestly,
is that you have no chance, Melissa,
you have no chance of making the playoffs.
That's why it's so bad.
I don't think I would overturn it.
That's not the only reason it's so bad.
Look, it is so easy.
If Bijan gets hurt, Isaiah Pacheco is 10 times better than,
I mean, sorry, Algeria is better than Pacheco.
That's not even a guarantee.
Pacheco would be right back into the role
that Kareem Hunt has right now.
Maybe, but we've been talking all week
that we don't expect it, but all right, all right, all right.
Nothing is gonna happen.
We gotta take a break.
It's more possible than a random Bijani dream.
All right, we're gonna take a break here.
When we come back, more fantasy cops
will be right back on Fantasy Football today.
You know what's great about ambition?
You can't see it.
Some things look ambitious, but looks can be deceiving.
For example, a runner could be training for a marathon,
or they could be late for the bus. You never know.
Ambition is on the inside.
So that thing you love, keep doing it.

And we're back on fantasy football today, let's go right back to the police
Drew from a town south of Philly
Dan you got to know that town south of Philly
South Philly, I only know north Philly. I don't go down. Dan, you got to know that town south of Philly. South Philly.
I only know north Philly.
I don't go down.
I forget you then.
Good morning.
I love the show.
I need some dad advice.
My son is constantly looking at his fantasy team.
The other night he fell asleep with the app open
and accidentally dropped Jacobi Myers in his sleep.
He realized as soon as he woke up
and asked the commissioner to put him back on his team.
The commissioner claims he didn't have the capability to fix it.
We told him how or it says when told how he admitted that he wasn't going to do it because
he had the first waiver wire priority.
My son is pretty non-confrontational so I'm sure he'll just leave it alone, which is probably
the best thing to do, but it doesn't sit well.
Thoughts?
Yeah, I don't think this is a good move by the commissioner.
He's cheating. He's using his power.
Yeah, listen, you don't get... This is a dad problem here.
You don't get to weigh in. It's only Jamie.
Oh, you're right about that. You're right about that.
Jamie and I can weigh in.
Let's turn it over to Father of the Year, Mr. Adam Mazer. Go ahead.
You know, I don't have a son old enough to have this problem.
So in a few years, sure. But Jamie, your kids play fantasy football. What would you do in this situation?
I mean, you know, if it's genuinely an honest mistake and, you know, this has never happened
before, you know, where, you know, trust me, I see my kids leagues and their father-son league. So
the parents are involved, but they're as my 12 year old, it. So the parents are involved but they're as
my 12 year old it's mostly the kids are doing a lot of the moves now so but I still see
all the trade offers that are being sent back and forth and they're terrible. They're so
they're so bad because these they're just trying to rip each other off left and right
and you know they're all smart enough thankfully to say no but I think, you know, he genuinely fell asleep, he genuinely hit the button by
mistake, you know, rolled over and-
I think you got the issue wrong here, right?
We agree that he should get your Coby Myers back.
The problem is the commissioner is not doing it.
And the son is just gonna- okay, so you got it, sorry.
But just in case we were confused, the son who's getting screwed here is non-confrontational
and is just gonna let it slide.
The dad wants to be like, no dude,
you should get your Kobe Myers back.
So what would you do if you were the dad here?
I mean, it depends on what the relationship is.
You know, if it's just like, if it's a school friend
and you don't know the kid or the family,
then you gotta let the kid,
you gotta encourage your son to step up
and do it himself.
If it's like family friends, you know, we don't know the context of who the other person is,? If it's like family, friends, you know,
we don't know the context of who the other person is,
who the commissioners could be cousin, you know,
could be, you know, a neighborhood kid that, you know,
the parents know for a long time, then you could, you know,
nudge the other side of it and say, come on, man,
you know, he didn't mean to do this.
You know, like Adam's almost, Adam's almost sending,
like you show up to the guy's door with a baseball bat.
No, I wouldn't risk like a friendship over it, You know like Adams almost Adam's almost something like you show up to the guy's door with a baseball bat
No, I wouldn't risk like a friendship over it But I wouldn't want to I wouldn't want my kid to be friends with with a shady commissioner like this
But Drew I would Dan would Dan would certainly end the friendship
I hear if this is not a real friendship now, okay, Drew. Why don't you why don't you talk to the dad?
Why don't you talk to the kids dad be like listen your so that's what I
Forget it. Yeah All right next up next up from Jason Why don't you talk to the dad? Why don't you talk to the kid's dad? Be like, listen, your son's a really bad commission.
Yeah.
All right.
Next up, next up from Jason.
I am commissioner of my work league and we have no vetoes on trades.
We used to, but people just voted down all the trades even if they were fair.
There aren't many trades in this league.
And as of now, there have only been three trades and I've been part of all of them.
Today a trade went through with a manager in first place trading Tank Bigsby and Alec Peirce to a manager who's eliminated from Mike Evans.
We don't have a rule that eliminated teams can't trade because it's a keeper league.
We don't have vetoes, but my process is to ask both managers why they want this deal. I haven't
heard from the eliminated manager, but I can't see a good reason for this trade. If I don't hear back from the eliminated manager, what should I do?
Mike Alfredo The fact that it's a keeper league,
Bigsby does have some keeper valueby and Alec Pierce from Mike Evans.
It's not a great trade, but the fact that there is some keep, like, if you were to say
right now, Tank Bigsby is starting running back for the Jaguars next year under Ben Johnson,
that's not horrible.
It's not horrible.
So if the trade makes sense from a keeper standpoint, then you should let it go. If
it's ridiculous, then.
And when was this trade made?
Recently.
So it's also look.
This week.
So this week's a little tough because if you were to say it was two weeks ago when Flacco
still the quarterback and Pittman had the back injury, and then you're talking about
Pierce getting you through two weeks potentially as a guy we were saying was a hot waiver pick up.
The fact that is this week, you know, Pippen was back and Richard is a quarterback, then
it's a little tough.
But I do think that if you're just talking keeper value, there's some keeper value to
tank Bigsby that should not be overlooked.
We got a comment here from Greg.
This is Dan, ask about Green Stripe.
Jamie, you remember Greg?
That's Green Stripe.
Oh yeah.
So this is one of my favorite colleagues
and he's in the chat right now.
He doesn't work with us anymore.
Okay, I didn't get to work with Greg.
That's disappointing.
Giants fan from Jersey, I believe.
Oh, nice.
Maybe my funniest colleague. I had
this collared shirt, this polo shirt, like, you know, short
sleeve collared shirt that had like a bunch of blue stripes
across horizontal blue stripes, and just had this one random
green stripe across this chest. And he was fascinated by the
shirt. So he called me green stripe forever. And he still
calls me green stripe.
I'm gonna try to find a picture of the shirt.
It is amazing how many pieces of items of clothing
you have in your wardrobe that really catch our attention.
On FFT and just take over shows.
Like single handedly take over shows.
If I can get on Facebook.
Greg's like one of those guys,
like you'll just, you'll talk to him for like a minute
and you walk away something he made you laugh
Oh, he's so we need a guy like that. Come back Greg. Yeah, he's so funny. All right last one here
What happened to your Spock shirt? Did you retire? I was still where I wear with pride now. I'm not
Right now you wear it with pride. All right this one
Let's see. Is this one my favorite one? We've had some good ones before this is this great
All right from from Marcus.
In one of my fantasy leagues,
the most openly egregious things just happened.
It's an eight team, four point per passing touchdown,
full PPR league.
I'm five and six.
I'm in fourth place.
The commissioner is five and six and in fifth place
because I have more points than him.
Remember, it's an eight team league.
This week, he really needs to win to stay alive
and is playing the last place two and nine team. technically not eliminated yet, the two and nine team. The last place
team has Evan Ingram on a bye and Jake Ferguson hurt. He's been stressing how much he really
wanted TJ Hockinson and has talked to me about him before. He offered me, Najee Harris for
TJ Hockinson and Nick Chubb. I accepted the trade. The commissioner vetoed the trade.
And when I called him to ask about it, he said,
quote, I really need to win this week
and I normally would let this type of trade go through,
but I am playing him this week
and I don't want him to beat me
so I'm not letting it go through, end quote.
I've never had a commissioner openly admit
to abusing his powers like that.
What say you guys?
P.S.
I will not be back in the league next year.
Yeah.
I mean, good for you for taking a stand and getting out of a stupid league like this.
And I say it's a stupid league like this because a commissioner is doing something so ridiculous.
I mean, Jamie, can we kick this guy out?
Like is this worth losing a friendship over?
Like, where do we draw the line with the shenanigans here? Like, guys can just do something as openly ridiculous cheating like this. I don't
get it. These league people playing like who are these people who make these decisions?
That's so funny, though.
So you got to obviously bring this to light with the rest of your league. And you got to make it
aware that the commissioner is really abusing his powers or her powers to a degree that is just not even, can't go
back for that.
So yes, you can kick the commissioner out of the league or remove them or her from commissioner
powers and penalize them in some way, shape or form if you're not going to kick them out.
Okay.
I found the picture of the green striped shirt, but I can't like there's another, there's
another person in it
So I I'm gonna see if I can download it and then edit it
All right. Thank you for your fantasy cops submission. What's the other person? I just a friend of mine be like, I'm not gonna
Know all right
Apple podcast questions great fan. You still have it at home the green stripe or no. No
No, no, it's it's though. No because his wife has taste and she probably made him throw it up.
She let him buy this box shirt. No, he did that on his own. He told us that. Oh, he did it on his own.
Did she criticize you when you got back? Um, I think she said nice pajamas. Yeah, I think she said
it looked like pajamas, which it does. And that wasn't a compliment. No, it was not.
She was right.
OK, Apple Podcast from now for NAL.
Currently sitting in first place in my league, thanks to you guys.
My trade deadline has been extended.
I've been offered Justin Jefferson and Raheem
Mostert for Josh Jacobs and Terry McLaurin.
What say you, gents?
Jefferson and Mostert for Jacobs and McLaurin and Mostert for Jacobs and McCloren.
I'd rather have Jacobs and McCloren.
Me too, I'm on Jacobs and McCloren side.
Okay, just talk about that briefly
so I can try to get this picture up.
So, you know, you always want to be on the side
where you're getting the best player,
but I think at this point,
Raheem Mostert is such a non-factor
and I wonder what would happen
even if Devon Aitchin got hurt, you know,
what they would do in terms of probably splitting the touches between
most certain and, uh, Jaylen, right.
As opposed to just all the work going to most are Jacobs has been beyond serviceable.
He's, he's a borderline number one running back, certainly a high end number two
running back and McLaurin, as we've seen with Jane Daniels more times than
not has been pretty solid.
So I think you're getting two starters for one.
And that's a good, good side of being.
Yeah.
For me, it comes down to the Jacobs aspect of this.
If you look at it last year, Green Bay's offense, Jordan Love caught fire in the second half.
Jordan Love could get healthier down the stretch.
The schedule looks really good for Green Bay for potential shootouts.
It's good start this week if pretty healthy.
So I think that Jacobs could be potentially a league winner down the stretch.
All he has to do is score a little bit more. He's just hasn't been scoring a lot.
All right. Next question is from App State dynasty 12 team half PPR.
It was that not enough time for you to edit the picture?
I don't think I can edit it.
You just go bust it real well there. I feel like we did a great job.
You did a very good job. You actually gave like a real answer that must be difficult.
So just blow the picture up and just show the show.
They're saying in the chat, show that shirt, show that.
I don't think they're saying that.
Yeah, they are.
There's two show that shirts comments.
Can I crop?
Why can't I crop?
I can't crop with this.
You are just not technically sound.
No, can you crop?
I'll send you the picture.
You can put on the spot like that.
All right.
I'll do it for you. Dynasty league 12 team, half PPR,
kick and punt return yards count,
start two running backs and one flex.
Bijan Robinson is on a buy and these are my only options.
All right, we need two running backs on a flex.
Holy cow.
Jonathan Brooks, Rochon Johnson,
Zach, Tajay Spears is probably not gonna play,
Zach Charbonneauur Keaton Mitchell.
Remember punt and kick return yards count Amir Abdullah.
So let's get two running backs first.
Jonathan Brooks, Rochon Johnson, Zach Charbonneur, Keaton Mitchell, Amir Abdullah.
Abdullah right now is the easy one because both guys didn't practice again on Thursday.
Crazy as it sounds, I'm with it.
So you got Abdullah and then I mean,
it's not like Keith Mitchell's getting a ton of return yards that you're going
to factor him that highly. I would probably go with Roshan.
Who was the guy before Roshan? I don't know if someone's someone in Brooks.
Yeah, no, I can't do that yet. It's got to be Roshan. All right.
And then a flex from the remaining running backs like Charbonneur or Jonathan Brooks,
Jalen Coker, Jalen Polk, Jordan Whittington. It's no way it's Whittington. He's done.
I might go Coker. I think Coker is going to get benched if Thielen plays.
That's such a good point. Damn it. I can't do Coker then.
Man, you're a really tough spot.
Jonathan Brooks. Oh, Sharpener. Just take a shot on Sharpen. Yeah. Yeah, I guess.
All right. Next up, Josh three X guys, hardest decision I've had to make all season.
Do I start Bo Nicks who I picked up for Kyler's bi-week or do I put Kyler back in my lineup?
Kyler. Yeah, Kyler, you know, he's been good more times than not. You know, he threw out the Bears
game. He's would have been an amazing stretch. You know, three of his you know, he's been good more times than not. You know, he threw out the Bears game. He's would have been an amazing stretch.
You know, three of his last four, he's been fantastic.
So I don't think this Seattle defense is going to slow him down.
I know they're getting healthier coming off the bye week.
He's got a pretty solid track record.
His last six games against the Seahawks, he's averaging 24 fantasy points per game, spin
some spike games and there's a 43 point game in there, for example.
But yeah, I'm going gonna stick with Kyler.
I like both a lot this week though.
Okay, I'm in Photoshop.
Oh my God.
That is unbelievable.
I don't know how to use Photoshop.
Adam is like the,
I'll text you the picture, I'll text you in two seconds.
Adam's like the grandparent you have
when you put Netflix on their TV and all this far down
and they can't still get him.
You're like, text me, I'll text you right back.
Mix the Netflix and then go to the Netflix.
Text it to you, Jamie. Yeah, just text it to me, I'll Netflix and then go to Jamie.
Yeah, just text me.
I'll text right back to you.
I'll have in two seconds.
Oh, this is no, I need it on my computer.
I'll email to you.
I'm going to if Jamie can do all that, can I email you the picture?
Sure.
Okay.
I'm going to email you.
This is embarrassing.
Adam, this really is.
It's not that I'm hosting a show.
If I didn't have to host the show right now, I'd have this figured out.
All right.
Picture is sent.
And okay, let's go to our YouTube comments.
YouTubers, what's going on?
Send fire away.
And let me just time code this.
Okay, YouTube, here we go.
Adam Thielen, Christian Watson, Romeo Dobbs.
Watson.
Better TV series, Goosebumps or Are You Afraid of the Dark?
I was a massive, and I mean massive,
Are You Afraid of the Dark fan growing up,
to the point where at one point in my childhood,
I went online to eBay and ordered all these bootleg
DVDs that they like created. It was like a 36 pack. It was missing episodes. It was supposed
to be all the episodes, but I got a lot of them. And what a show that was. Some of the best writing
in Nickelodeon history. I've never even seen Goosebumps though. I can't believe you didn't
know how to do this. You know what? I didn't think to do it on my phone.
I could have easily done it on my phone.
I was trying to do it on my computer.
Jamie is right in the back already.
Oh my God, Adam.
All right.
This might be your word.
This is, this is up there.
It's so dumb.
This is up there.
By the way, Dan Trivia, what's the name of the group
in the, in the, are you afraid of the dark?
What's their group name?
Oh, the Midnight Society.
Oh, very good.
Told you I was a huge fan.
I was like a weird fan of the show.
I watch all of SNCC and I never got to see your brother.
It was such a disappointment.
He was on Slime Time Live.
I don't even know when that was.
It was like a midday show.
Dan is the guy that excitedly tells you about a romcom he watched recently.
No shot, King.
I excitedly tell people that a lot of things, but not romcoms.
Grade the trade, half PPR.
I traded Kareem Hunt for Bucky Irving.
Yeah, I love this trade.
Yeah.
Okay. Kareem hunt days are over.
A minus.
Lions or Broncos DST,
Knicks or Jaden Daniels?
Broncos and Daniels.
Definitely Daniels for me.
I would never bench him.
Broncos.
Kyler Murray or Justin Herbert?
Herbert. Herbert. Broncos. Tyler Murray or Justin Herbert?
Herbert.
Herbert.
Grade the trade.
Did you send it back to me, Jamie?
Now he can't even get it.
You've done all the work for him and it's still not on the screen.
Okay.
All right.
So wait, Dan, you take over while I need to share the screen.
Okay.
Robert Thomas says, Dan, a riddle.
What is it that has no weight, can be seen by the naked eye, and if you put it in a barrel,
it would make the barrel lighter?
That is the easiest riddle I've ever been asked.
The answer is Adam Azer.
What?
Yeah.
Anything that if you put in the barrel, it'll make it lighter.
What the hell are you talking about?
I don't get this joke at all. I'm talking about you, Adam, you.
You, 135 pounds soaking wet you.
No, that is not the answer.
This is an actual riddle.
I think I'm gonna actually look at a riddle
and answer a riddle right now at 12, 15 a.m.
Seen by the naked eye.
No, don't give this any more time.
I love riddles.
I'm terrible at that.
Sorry, Robert, I like you, Robert,
but we're not doing riddles on this show.
I put you in charge of doing the questions.
Yeah, and I put up a rail
and now we'll get to an actual question.
And the actual question is,
Drake May, Anthony Richardson,
or Tua in a six point passing TD, Jamie Eisenberg?
Tua.
Tua is my answer as well.
We're going rapid fire because Adam is still struggling
to get this even though Jamie has done all the work for him.
And as the rapid fire rolls on, we clicked one that we already had.
So now we're going to grade a trade, 0.5 PPR.
It's Breeze Hall for Kenneth Walker straight up.
So I think I like Hall better rest of season, but if you need to win now, Hall's on a buy,
Walker's not.
So it depends on the circumstance.
It's a fair point.
I would not trade Hall.
That schedule is getting real nice for him.
Whole PPR, you got to bench one.
It's Jayden Reed.
It's Marvin Harrison Jr. coming out of the buy.
It's Lad McConkey building that rapport with Herbert.
Or it's JK.
I kind of locked my way into two touchdowns.
Otherwise, I would have had a bad game, Dobbins.
I'm going to bench Jayden Reed.
I'm gonna bench Reed, but I kind of want to bench Dobbins
here and Adam has finally done it.
All right, ready?
Here we go.
Oh my God, no wonder he's saying that.
It's such a good point.
Why is there that green stripe there?
And he would look at me every day I'd come in,
regardless of whether or not I was wearing the shirt.
And he would go like a baseball coach swiping his chest
He'd be like stripe
I mean you've just been you picked this one out too. It seems like
Actually, I believe my mommy bought that for me. Oh my god. You said the word mommy
But yes, you don't know if that's for sure I will say this
I was making a joke, but yeah. We don't know if that's for sure.
But I will say this.
You somehow managed to be even skinnier looking in that photo than you are right
now.
That was a long time ago.
We, uh, the thing about it is now that I see the shirt, I mean, you, you
wear the same clothes, I know, I don't have any shirts like that.
Yeah.
No, no, no.
At the time, like you'd wear that shirt all the time.
Probably. All right. have any shirts like that? Yeah, no, no, no. At the time, like you'd wear that shirt all the time. Oh, yeah.
I'd wear that shirt all the time.
Probably.
All right.
Actually, I think once I started.
It wasn't even a good shirt though.
He started calling me green straight.
He shamed me out of wearing that shirt, just like Jay did.
Well, he and your wife, when you did your move,
your wife was like, you're not bringing that with you.
That was way before I met her.
Grade the trade, Pacheco for Pukka Nakua. That's an A.
There's a probably 60% chance you wore that on one of your first dates with her.
No, no, I did not.
Yes. Good point.
It was out of the rotation by then.
You get so much confidence in it.
Baker or Purdy?
Baker.
Baker. Fine. Purdy's art.
McBride or John who Smith?
This shirt broke me.
Everything's we've had.
McBride over John.
When Jamie said that now that he saw it, he said he noticed he used to wear it all the
time.
That's not even true.
He's lying.
It's definitely true.
Like a six shirt rotation.
It was the Vanderbilt shirt.
It was the Vanderbilt shirt I wore all the time.
Um, okay. Looking for looking for some questions.
I don't think Dan, I don't think Dan could have survived
in the old days when I would steal your wallet all the time.
Oh, I wish I was there. You used to bully and prank Azer.
Oh, I miss, I miss.
You never start. No, I always the wrong there. You used to bully and prank Azer. Oh, I miss I miss.
Starts to know he's the wrong word.
Prank, prank, prank.
No, bully is the right word.
Start two of these three.
D.
Rashad White, Josh Downs, the wallet.
The wallet was this thick and he had a castanza wall and walk out of the room.
What am I supposed to do?
I still get a wall.
What is he doing with the castanza?
I'm going to start Debo Samuel and why was the wallet so thick? What was in that? Well, they were shot white over Josh Down? I'm gonna start Debo Samuel and... Why was the wall so thick?
What was in that wall?
I'd say Rashad White over Josh Downs.
I'm actually benching Debo Samuel.
I go Rashad White and Josh Downs.
Okay, that's fine.
I benched Debo in that situation.
Now, Adam, you need to tell us why that wall was so thick.
What was in there?
I don't really understand.
My wall is still that thick.
It's very thick.
You don't know why?
No, I don't have, I really never carry...
I have a lot of cards. I have know, have like my target card and my
stop and shop card and my credit cards.
You have those cards for it. You shop there often?
Yeah, I scan them.
What are they? If cards are there like cards?
You can just use your phone number now, right?
I'm not punching in the phone number every time. Come on.
Do you think it's better to have a wallet this thick that's sitting in your pocket?
I don't drive like this. I take my wallet out. I never sit on the car.
I've got a card of every store that he shops. I put it in the door of my car. Trade Devant. Yes,
I would trade Devanti Smith for Debo Samuel. Yeah.
Hawkinson, Andrews or K.Dotten? K.Dotten.
Josh Downs or Ramandre Stevenson.
S the Bay or Trey Benson half PPR.
That's the Benson coming out of the buy.
I'm going to go Benson.
If this is an insult, Rickolas cage, I'm not insulted.
Adam still shops at old Navy.
Uh, it's not an insult that often, but yes, I have no, cause it's not near me.
Otherwise I go there time to time as well. It's cheap and good, good, solid.
Exactly. Exactly. Uh, let's see.
You know, I'm worried about brands. Okay. You, you worry about your brands.
We don't need to be wearing brands that are expensive. That's right.
Christian Watson or Wondell Robinson. Watson. Watson. Love Watson.
Second half that shirt is like the shirt you wear once and something good happens when
you're wearing it. So you keep wearing it forever.
That sounds like Adam.
That is such that Adam to a T right there.
Jordan love or Justin Herbert.
Herbert.
Herbert.
Uh, Dan can't not agree with Jamie. Yep. That I agree with.
We're talking about Adam's fat wallet. You're damn right. We can't not agree.
Adam has his library card still that I don't have. I think I have, I might have a blockbuster
card just for nostalgia. You'd do me a favor and like audit your wallet a little bit, like clean
it out. I never had to say this to anybody, but you need to clean your wallet out. It's just kind
of a big wallet. It's just like a chunk wallet. I don't know. I traded. We traded Pacheco for Jawan Jennings like that. Chunk wallet.
Yes, I did.
I've never heard anybody refer to a wallet as chunk wallet.
I used to get so excited when he would just leave that thing on
the table and leave. And and Dave was like, Oh, here we go.
You can probably.
Big I had to take it out of my out of my pockets. All right,
start three of these four.
You would always leave the room. Who would have struggled to take it out of my out of my pockets. All right, start three of these four You would always leave the room.
Who would have struggled to get it out?
Ken Walker, Austin Eckler, Tony Pollard, Kareem Hunt. Sit one. Walker, Eckler, Pollard, Hunt.
I'm gonna sit Pollard.
I'll sit at Pollard.
Oh, I got a cool stat on Eckler.
But I'm thinking I might want to sit Eckler, but I'll sit Pollard.
Yeah, I would sit Eckler.
But he's facing a team that gives up a lot of receiving
yards to running backs.
He's actually faced five teams that give up a lot of receiving
yards to running backs.
And he's had 41 or more yards receiving
in four of those five games.
So that bodes well.
Dallas is really bad at that.
However, I am sitting Eckler.
This is an interesting conspiracy theory.
Adam has used the heavy wallet so he could weigh more.
It's not a bad theory.
Acres or Roshan PPR.
I think he just would use it so he wouldn't fly away.
Roshan.
Roshan for me.
Okay, and?
Let me ask you something.
When Adam would leave the wallet out
and you would rank him,
did he like freak out when it wasn't there?
Oh my God.
Every time?
I think on the day it would be,
and it was even better when Nando was there.
Oh, so good, because he'd blame Nando, obviously.
No, no, no, it was totally my shtick.
Okay, okay, he knew it was you.
I'm gonna go now.
All right, it's been a great show.
