Adam, Dan, and Jamie here on Friday afternoon. If you're listening on Saturday, whatever it is, hope you're having an awesome weekend.
Starting point is 00:01:53 Yes, I am Adam Azer, getting healthier. Jamie Eisenberg is here. And Dan Schneier, not only is he the president, he is also a client. I don't know if you get that. Dan doesn't know that one. No, you don't get that one. That's the old hair club for men.
Starting point is 00:02:10 That is a brutal haircut. I mean, what do we got going on? It's really short on the sides. It's too poofy in the front. He said he had a bad haircut. I wasn't expecting it because, like I said, this guy's hair has looked the same every day for his entire life. But this is different. This is bad news. What happened? Take the headphones off so we can see it in all its glory
Starting point is 00:02:29 the headphones make it worse actually yeah it's not as bad it's not as bad with without it's not as bad without the headphones on the headphones make it worse right yeah the good news is it'll grow back the bad news is it looks terrible. And here's what happened. I, for those who don't know, I'm a man of not many. How do I describe this? I don't buy watches. I don't have jewelry. I don't have nice clothing.
Starting point is 00:02:56 None of that stuff ever appealed to me. So when it came to haircuts and my personal appearance, I never really put that much into it. I go to a place, and I don't want go to a place and i don't want to name the place i don't want to drag the place though most people would look down upon it it's a chain haircut store let's just call it that and when you go to a chain haircut store a chan and when you don't a chan a chan yes they want to be pronounced a chan haircut store you you know and when you have a job where you're working a lot or when, you know, some circumstances that have gone down on our team mean more working this week, you don't have
Starting point is 00:03:32 time to get a haircut. And I knew I had a trip coming up to Florida, so I don't have a specific barber or hairstylist. I just go to the place, this chain place, and whoever they give me, they give me. It's been fine until this point. As Adam always says, my hair looks always the same. That's great. That's my design. I'm good with that. this chain place and whoever they give me they give me it's been fine until this point as adam always says my hair looks always the same that's great that's my design i'm good with that give me the same haircut every time this time i said the exact same thing i always say which is a one faded into a two on the sides and trim keyword trim on the top trim on the top is this look like a trim
Starting point is 00:04:02 to you this is not a trim this is a massacre on the top this is a hack job on the top. Is this look like a trim to you? This is not a trim. This is a massacre on the top. This is a hack job on the top. And the worst part about it is this hairstylist. She turned my chair. I don't know why I've never had a haircut like this while working on me. She turned my chair. She turned my chair. So I was not facing the mirror anymore.
Starting point is 00:04:21 So like, I'm just, it's a guessing game at that point as far as what the work she's doing. And I'm just have to hope that things are going well. I'm just sitting there all the time. I don't know. I don't know. She flips it back around to the, to the, to the end, at the end of the haircut, to the, to the mirror. And she goes, how's it look? How do you like it? And I just had that freeze moment where I was just like, here's that awkward spot. Like when you're at a restaurant and the food sucks and the waiter's like, how was the food? You never tell them the truth. You know, whenever tells the truth, you always say, oh, it's good. Yeah. The food was
Starting point is 00:04:47 great. So, yeah. So how was it? How does it look? Oh, good. Yeah. Oh, that's terrible. I'm so sorry. She turned she did the turn. Now you can't do that. She did the turn. I need to see a mirror the whole time. Absolutely. And you know what? I think it's a lot different i mean i would tell i don't usually you know i usually enjoy my meals but if the food was bad i don't know if i tell the waiter but the waiter didn't make it i never tell the waiter the waiter didn't make it but this is i know but you don't want the awkward conversation of being like actually this was kind of crappy and it was cold and it came to no one ever want like i don't like that i'm not a big fan of the i guess it's not no one people who don't like confrontation like myself don't ever do that did you tip yeah did you say i did the normal tip i did the normal
Starting point is 00:05:29 good tip yeah a normal good tip i don't i don't take it out on the tip ever the person even though this is i just don't understand what she thought i meant when i said trim trim i said trim well i don't really all right so here's here's what here's what happened i just question after you you go back the next time they give you the same person oh no no then i'm gonna say no i'm gonna say no the conversation will happen no no i'm not kidding and i thought about this today jamie it's funny you brought that up like i was thinking about this in the shower like if that happens again and i'm stuck with that person i'm gonna have to do the thing i don't want to do and be like i'm sorry but the last haircut we had together wasn't, wasn't great. No, you know
Starting point is 00:06:06 what I would do? Honestly, I would leave. I'd be like, I would pretend that I had a phone call. That is actually what I would do. That's actually the sad sissy move that Adam and myself would do to avoid competition. I'm going to, I'm going to give you a scenario based on something you just brought up and I want to see if our audience can guess who it is. And it might be one of the three of us on the show right now. There is a person who continually, who has repeatedly, when asked, how's the food, said, eh, not so good. And as a result, has gotten some free meals out of it. Really? But there is somebody that is on our shows regularly that does that on occasion really
Starting point is 00:06:47 and i have to guess who it is no no our audience gonna guess what it is because i think i have a guess i got a strong guess already sound like a dave it doesn't sound like a dave thing like everybody's guessing dave or two people are guessing dave right now it doesn't sound two days though it's not a heath either yeah no, no. It could be one of the U2? No. No, it's not one of us. It's Jacob Gibbs. No, it's not Gibbs.
Starting point is 00:07:12 I think it's Dave, but it doesn't even feel like a Dave thing. But I just know it's so far from a Heath thing. Wow. And it's not a U thing either, James. It's a Dave thing. It's Tara. That's funny. All right. Well, we'll a Dave thing. It's Tara. That's funny. All right.
Starting point is 00:07:27 Well, we'll reveal that later. We got some news and news. That's actually what Tara's time means when the food. Yeah. I didn't like the food. I'll share my haircut story. I have a much worse haircut story than hopefully anyone. And I'll share that later on in the show.
Starting point is 00:07:40 I wish I had gone to a Chan. I thought your worst haircut story was when the listeners paid a lot of money to St. Jude for you to shave three lines on the side of your head. You didn't do it. Jamie did it the next day. Gave you a chance to correct your mistake. I still haven't done it.
Starting point is 00:07:54 Adam, when he lived in Florida, I had the best person cutting his hair in the world. Yeah. Jamie's hairstylist. Yeah. She's great. Honestly,
Starting point is 00:08:01 if I, I, my better move would have been way today. Cause for those who don't know, I'm heading down to Fort Lauderdale, the main office, for this next week. And I wanted a haircut to try to look okay for my colleagues and people I haven't seen in a while. And I should have just waited and taken your barber, Jamie. That would have been the move. All right, can we get on the show here?
Starting point is 00:08:17 Actually, this was good filibustering because we got some news in. Daniel Jones and two starting linemen are out for the Giants. That one we saw about an hour ago. Jameer Gibbs has not been ruled out yet. If Jameer Gibbs plays, would you downgrade David Montgomery at all? Nope. A couple spots, but that's it.
Starting point is 00:08:37 Mike Evans is good to go. Actually, this was one of the moments on this morning's Friday morning's Start or Sit episode where I had to leave. I didn't hear what you said about Evans and Godwin. So now they're both playing. Jamie, where are you going to rank Evans and Godwin? Where we have them ranked.
Starting point is 00:08:53 So Evans is a top 12 wide receiver. And Godwin is a high-end number three receiver. I mean, that's just the one big performance we had from Chris Godwin so far this season was the game that Evans left. And so that's just apparently where Baker Mayfield likes to go. So three receiver leagues are definitely starting Chris Godwin. Two receiver leagues, I'd be a little bit concerned. All right, Mike Evans is going to play.
Starting point is 00:09:13 Sorry, T. Higgins. T. Higgins is the next one. T. Higgins is going to be a game-time decision, that one just coming in. Game-time decision against Seattle. Dan, are you going to start T. Higgins if he plays? I am, but I think the lead, or at least what I took out of this, was him saying that this is an injury that's going to bother him all year. And he needs what he said, multiple months to feel better and recover from it. So he'll be playing through it potentially, but it's risky.
Starting point is 00:09:39 One bad hit and he's going to be in-game out, which kills you in your fantasy lineups during the week. Some Colts injuries. Right tackle Braden Smith, center Ryan Kelly, and two defensive tackles all mispracticed. Three of them were for undisclosed reasons. I don't know if that's an illness or what, but that's something to keep an eye on there.
Starting point is 00:09:59 Up front, four injuries for the Colts. Jacksonville expects to be without Zay Jones and left guard Walker Little, and David Njoku was back at practice. He'll face San Francisco. Check out Sportsline. If you want, if there's enough, you know, you know, enough enthusiasm for a baked burgers
Starting point is 00:10:21 or baked burger promo code, we can make it happen. But, Jamie, do you have a Sportsline promo code? Dan, do you have a Sportsline promo code, we can make it happen. But Jamie, do you have a sports line promo code? Dan, do you have a sports line promo code? Which one should I give? Should I give Heath, Richard,
Starting point is 00:10:31 whatever. Sure. Use a promo code. I think there's a Richard promo code or a Heath promo code. And you get one buck for your first month of sports line. After that, it's only nine 99 a month. I do believe,
Starting point is 00:10:43 um, there's a one for coach that's just coach use coach too a lot of promo codes out there but get on sports line great fantasy content not just from Jacob Gibbs but from Dave and Jamie I don't know if Jamie's got stuff there but
Starting point is 00:10:57 yeah my DFS lineups go there every week okay Heath as well awesome stuff on sports line check it out while Dan takes off on Fridays, he gave me more work this season. That is true. He works 45 minutes on Friday. Give him a break.
Starting point is 00:11:12 From Cheese... What? Unbelievable. No off days, I guess. No off days. I can't take you seriously with that haircut. From Cheesehead... Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:11:21 ...in horse country. I think, honestly, the fact that you all said I look better without the headphones, I'm taking off these headphones, Adam. I'm tired of the headphones. Fine, take the headphones out. Whatever I think, honestly, the fact that you all said I look better without the headphones, I'm taking off these headphones, Adam. I'm tired of the headphones. Fine, take the headphones out. Whatever.
Starting point is 00:11:29 No, no, no. You want them on. Cheesehead in Horse Country. Dear Romeo, Julius, Hamlet, and Brutus. Those are all characters from, or Roman characters. It's Shakespeare. Shakespeare. I just want to let Dan do it all.
Starting point is 00:11:49 It's Game of Thrones. No, I knew. I really don't think I can tell anyone. I don't think I could appropriately express to everyone how much I hated Shakespeare in high school. You were a theater major. Okay. I was, every time we had- You were a theater major.
Starting point is 00:12:06 I was, okay. I was a theater major in college. I was a theater management major. I sold tickets at the box office. I was not really a theater major, but I do tell people that because it is true and it's funny. But Shakespeare sucks.
Starting point is 00:12:19 I just, like- Whoa. You shared that clip of, who was it, Dante Wittner saying Dak sucks? Dak Prescott sucks? Yeah. That was funny. I don't like Shakespeare.
Starting point is 00:12:29 He doesn't suck, but, you know. Most people didn't find that funny. Most people hated that. I thought he was wrong to say Dak Prescott sucks, but nobody talked about that he actually gave good analysis after that, that no one even considered. But anyway. It's true.
Starting point is 00:12:41 All right, here's the question. I need a running back, a wide receiver, and a flex. James Cook, Kamara, or Jonathan Taylor? Kamara. Kamara. You start. Puka, A.J. Brown, Devontae Adams, T. Higgins. Give me one.
Starting point is 00:12:57 One? Yeah. PPR. Puka, A.J. Brown, Devontae, or Higgins? I'm going to go A.J. Brown, but I'm just not going to bench AJ Brown. How do you have this decision? I don't know how this decision. I think you must have misread this.
Starting point is 00:13:11 Oh, it's eight teams. Oh, did I misread it? I'm reading it verbatim. It's eight teams, though. No, I think you misread it. Your sickness is taking over. Also, a flex. Well, I'm not going in.
Starting point is 00:13:21 I think I'm going with... I think I'm going to sit AJ Brown. Adam, in the last. You're playing Adams and Puka? Yeah. Adam, in the last 21 days, how many of those days do you think you spent sick? 21. It's unbelievable.
Starting point is 00:13:34 Yeah. In the last 21 days, Dan has taken five days off but said he's worked. I got to say, I'm very thankful that my ribs injury more or less healed before I got COVID because that would have been a bad combo. What ribs injury? Wow, you and T. Higgins. Good job. When I tore my ribs from coughing.
Starting point is 00:13:53 You didn't know about that, did you? I didn't know about that. You tore your ribs from coughing? Yeah, yeah. Oh, my God. This is the guy who thinks he's going to beat me in an athletic competition. He's tearing his wrist from coughing. Unbelievable.
Starting point is 00:14:06 You deserve to know about that. You definitely deserve it. I deserve to. You're right. Especially after you just called my haircut an albatross earlier, like just laughing it off. I knew it was bad, but you made me feel way worse about it at the beginning of the show.
Starting point is 00:14:18 All right. This one is from History Nick. The subject is, sorry, Adam. Rough season for Adam, who we all know is a Broncos fan disguised as a Giants fan. Both his teams are dumpster fires. Which Broncos player
Starting point is 00:14:29 will he be too high on next year? Are you known as a Broncos? Is this because of the Sutton thing? Well, Sutton last year, Judy this year. You were all in on Russ. I was off the Russ thing as soon as I saw the preseason. He looked terrible. I was like, yeah, I don't think I can Why'd you stay on As soon as I saw the preseason, he looked terrible.
Starting point is 00:14:46 I was like, yeah, I don't think I can play. Why'd you stay on Judy then? I don't know. I just really like Jerry Judy. I think he's a really good player, but maybe I'm wrong. You got hit with the same thing in back-to-back years. You're like Sutton and Judy. Both were relying on Russ being competent. Yeah, they're bad.
Starting point is 00:15:01 Does Judy get saved if he's traded to Carolina? No. Does he get saved if he's traded to Carolina? No. Does he get saved if he's traded to Kansas City? Yeah, yeah. I don't know. All right, this is from Joe in a suburb of Detroit. Steve Smith killed him. A trade was...
Starting point is 00:15:18 Honestly, I don't watch a ton of the talk shows, but every time I've seen steve smith he's just grumpy he's just a grumpy guy isn't he i guess kind of his thing i don't know if grumpy is the word for it if i called grumpy yeah i know it's more just like he's just like what's a good word for this jamie he's got an edge to him yeah he does have an edge yeah it's like one of my favorite things i used to do early in my career was uh anquan bolden used to have a charity event uh still does but used to have a lot of prominent nfl players come to it um for his golf tournament and it was in a small town in west palm beach called pokey if you want to know anything about the history of football go look up uh football in the glades some of the the best players in NFL history have come out of there. And it's just the smallest little town, but just amazing talent.
Starting point is 00:16:09 And Steve Smith was at one of these things, and I probably talked to him for 45 minutes. Just one of the best football conversations I've ever had. Just unbelievable guy. Okay. Cool. Good story. So from Joe, I know that sounded sarcastic, but it wasn't. Someone traded Hollywood Brown, Brees Hall, and Anthony Richardson for Chris Godwin, George Kittle, and the Lions DST.
Starting point is 00:16:33 The rest of the league thinks this trade should have been shut down by the commissioner due to possible collusion, but he said it isn't egregious enough, even though this is not the first time a questionable trade has happened between these two managers. What are your thoughts? It was Hollywood Brown, Brees Hall, and Richardson is not the first time a questionable trade has happened between these two managers what are the thoughts whoa it was hollywood brown breeze hall and richardson for godwin kittle and the lions dst well it's a god-awful trade that's the start but the more important thing is there's suspicion
Starting point is 00:16:56 suspicion of collusion there's a history of it and the commissioner goes eh we're not going to call collusion because this trade doesn't look egregious enough on paper. Collusion is collusion. If you have suspicion of collusion, you need to look into that. It doesn't matter. And they're cooking a situation. What are they going to do, subpoena their records?
Starting point is 00:17:14 No, but they're cooking a situation where they're purposely trying to make it not look that egregious so they can get away with it. Why is this trade so bad, though? Because Richardson's not- Yeah, I'm trying to think about it in my head because Richardson may not play the rest of the season. Well, we hope that's not the case, but he's out for four games.
Starting point is 00:17:30 So basically you remove him and the Lions defense for me. Who's as good as Brees Hall or anywhere close in that on the other side? It was Brees Hall and who else? It's Hollywood Brown. If you take away Richardson and the Lions, then it's Hollywood Brown and Brees Hall for Godwin and Kittle. It's a bad trade, but I don't know if it's vetoable. Right, that's how I see it. No, it's not vetoable. Nothing's vetoable without collusion. It's just a matter
Starting point is 00:17:51 of if these people are colluding, that's when your problem lies. Alright, this is from Gregalicious. Grade the trade. I'm one in three, looking to spice things up. I'm moving on from Garrett Wilson and Mixon. Okay, so he gives up Wilson and Mixon
Starting point is 00:18:06 and he gets Pittman and Kelsey. Oh, nice. I like it. Pittman and Kelsey. Oh yeah, I love that. Pittman and Wilson have basically been equals. It's a B+. Yeah, Mixon for Kelsey. I'll give it an A.
Starting point is 00:18:24 Yeah, it's an A. And you know what? He did this last week, so he just got 100-something yards. Kelsey's blow up. Yeah. All right. Well, you know who's here. Nope, that's the wrong button I meant to hit. The fantasy cops are here.
Starting point is 00:18:42 But so is a commercial break.

That is the letter I. Put Fantasy Cops in the subject line. I must have gotten 15 Fantasy Cops emails just this week. I mean, I get a lot.
Starting point is 00:19:32 That's a lot of commissioner problems. All right, this is from Chris. I'm the commissioner of a 10-team, fairly high-stakes keeper league. Everyone in our league has become pretty good at fantasy football, so in order to make sure the league stays competitive, everyone stays active. There's no collusion. We made a rule years ago that if anyone in the league has an inactive player of any sort in their lineup,
Starting point is 00:19:54 they will take an automatic loss and zero points for the week if they have an inactive player in their lineup. Last week when Barkley was designated out, he was left in a manager's lineup. So I was going to have to enforce this rule like I have had to multiple times in the past. The manager did not mean to because he was busy. Let me add his opponent got married that same weekend.
Starting point is 00:20:19 So I allowed him to let the league decide by voting whether or not to enforce the rule. Ultimately, it was voted to uphold the rule, give him the loss and the zero points. We see left Barkley in his lineup and was busy. Now he is mad and currently starting all of his lowest projected players while benching ETN, Jacobs Cup, and Ken Walker
Starting point is 00:20:40 over Damian Harris and Dotson and others. What should be done? It's a dynasty league? No, keeper league. Because I'm confused. Because if he's trying to tank, you're helping him by taking him out. No, this isn't a tanking thing.
Starting point is 00:20:55 It's just that... But now he's trying to lose, though. He's not... Well, he's trying to lose out of spite. He's just pissed off. I mean, this... This is stupid, Jamie, right? Let him change his lineup.
Starting point is 00:21:08 He didn't do it on purpose. Well, no. You don't have to let him change his lineup, but you give him the result of how the game played out. Like, don't give him zero points and just give him his points. Give him a loss. Give him a zero.
Starting point is 00:21:19 Right, give him a zero for Barkley. That's what... Sorry, you're right. Give him a zero for Barkley, but give him the points. Well, he got a zero for Barkley. Just let it play out as it has. Yeah, right you're right. Give him a zero for Barkley, but give him the points. Well, he got a zero for Barkley. Just let it play out as it has. Yeah, right.
Starting point is 00:21:28 But don't give him a zero for the whole week for his entire team. Right, you don't give him a zero for his entire roster. If he lost, he lost. If he won, kudos to him. Yeah, man, I don't really understand this rule. Giving someone a zero for starting an inactive player. How is that a... I mean,
Starting point is 00:21:45 he's, he's the, the person that is stuck with the inactive player is purposely screwing themselves, whether directly or indirectly. Like this is the stupidest thing I've ever heard. Yeah. All right.
Starting point is 00:21:54 Yeah. If it was now, now this is an interesting scenario to flip it because we've had this conversation with our dynasty league. If someone is tanking and puts a player in their lineup, that's anactive to purposely get a zero because they're trying to tank how do you punish them that way i mean you give them the win dan did that accidentally how do you give them the win that's funny no i just put an active player
Starting point is 00:22:16 in there and i got the win by the way yeah you suck but that was because you were facing the like the legitimate team tank i can't tell if you're trying to compete or not in Heath's Dynasty League. Me? No. Yeah. I know, and I'm winning games. It's horrible. It's horrible. Congratulations.
Starting point is 00:22:34 You won in your Dynasty Leagues last week, and you were trying to lose in both of them. All right, next up. Oh, those are only two of the guys. I can't believe it's not better. Jeremy, Mark, Kevin, and Darren. Ooh, I know them. I got it before Schneier.
Starting point is 00:22:51 Jeremy, Mark, Kevin, and Darren. Jeremy, Piven. Yep. One of them's from the University of Miami. The Jeremy. There's no way that's right. Jeremy spoke in class again. I think these are Giants tight ends.
Starting point is 00:23:09 Oh, Jeremy Shockey, Kevin Boss. Who are the others? Mark and Darren. Oh, Mark Bavaro and Darren Waller. There you go. I've been riddled with injuries. Jeremy spoke. I have the least points for and the most
Starting point is 00:23:23 Jeremy pivot and the most points against, and I'm currently one and four in last place. I was aggressive with waivers with my fab this week to try and make up for the injuries, but if I drop to one and five, I'm contemplating fielding the most competitive team I can with my guys each week, and stepping aside and not bothering with waivers
Starting point is 00:23:43 and free agency moving forward for the more competitive teams to have a better chance at guys. If he goes to one in five, he's going to set his lineup, but he's going to stop with the waivers, basically. Is this good etiquette or poor form? I mean, look, it's a nice gesture, but try and still compete. Nice gesture to who, though? I mean, look, it's a nice gesture, but try and still compete. You never know. Nice gesture to who, though?
Starting point is 00:24:07 I don't think it's bad etiquette, but I don't think it's good etiquette. I don't think you're supposed to just stop playing the waiver wire once you fall into a bad record. I don't know. I don't love this, personally. You have no obligation. I would still be competing. Yeah, you have no obligation to the other managers who have better records
Starting point is 00:24:26 and one in five you're probably out of it but you're not out of it you're not really yeah Dan the type of dude to always think it's an entourage reference entourage amazing show
Starting point is 00:24:41 this one's from Douglas it's a really long one here from Douglas hey Joe, a really long one here. From Douglas. Hey, Joe, Mel, Jack, and Jack. I believe those are Steel Curtain members he told me. He put it in the email. I'm not going to take credit for that one. All right. At least you admitted it this time.
Starting point is 00:24:55 12 teams, I always admit. 12 teams. I admit your haircut's really bad this time. You Google so often and people don't know about that. I always say when I Google. All right. 12 teams, Superflex League. Already existed when I joined last year to take over an empty spot.
Starting point is 00:25:11 So far this year, my team has been hit hard by the injury bug, but I've managed to hang in with a 2-3 record. And yet, after the week five games are finalized, I log in to see I now have a record of two and eight instead of two and three. In fact, all records now show 10 games played instead of five. I see that other league members have already commented in the chat and it's assumed that the site, which is not CBS, had a glitch. Best I can tell, the glitch happened sometime on Tuesday. Commissioner comes on the chat Wednesday and says he changed the league settings on purpose to, quote, see how it would look to add a little balance to the league, end quote.
Starting point is 00:25:50 What he did was change a setting to add a victory or a loss for each week when a team scores above or below the median point total for that given week. So my injury-laden 2-3 low-scoring team is now 2-8. And it just so happens that his 3-2 team is now 7-3. Other league members... All right, Dan is pro. Other league members came on the chat to ask that it be changed back. They said it's not something that we agreed upon before the season started, and it can't be changed mid-season.
Starting point is 00:26:21 Commissioner has many responses, including that, quote, it's called balance. The good teams will still make the playoffs. And, quote, if a team scores a boatload of points and outscores 98% of the league,
Starting point is 00:26:31 they deserve a win for that, end quote. League members explained to him that it literally changed the rankings. Commissioner responds, quote, not really. League members said
Starting point is 00:26:39 that it's a paid league and needs to be changed back, blah, blah, blah. Also got a little, like, juvenile where the commission says. It always does. It always does. So I need to know two things.
Starting point is 00:26:50 Am I at all out of line to be angry over the situation, even if it was just an experiment and will eventually be changed back? And B, two, do I deserve to get refunded and allowed to leave the league based on this? I have thoughts on this i'll start by saying you deserve to be mad and you are right that you shouldn't change in season what are you laughing at jamie did i cut you i mean your your job is to analyze the questions so when you say i have thoughts on this i hope so i have strong thoughts 15 times while i was reading it
Starting point is 00:27:20 of course he has thoughts on it i have have strong thoughts. Yes. That's what I should be saying. Okay. Go ahead. Yes. My thoughts are one. You have every reason to be mad that a rule was created or a change was created in season. Yes. And it's drastically changing the standings or outcome or whatever.
Starting point is 00:27:38 Yes. Having said that, Adam. Yes. Having said that, this is what we call apex scoring. I think it should be a part of every fantasy league. Top six players, top six scoring teams each week get a win. Bottom six get a loss.
Starting point is 00:27:57 There's a lot of reasons why I think it should be enacted. But this is in addition to your weekly matchup, right? In addition to your weekly matchup. So you either go 2-0, 1-1, or 0-2. The reason to add it is out of fairness because you don't want to have the situation where you score the second most points and you lose. You also don't want to have the situation
Starting point is 00:28:14 where a team scores the second least points and wins. That's not fair. And it takes away some variance. But what people don't realize the best part of this is, because finally some leagues I have are using it this year it adds so much fun to monday night football there's usually two to four teams competing for that last apex win they're in the fifth in points fourth in point six and point seven and points going into monday night and it's a lot of fun to track like am i going to get that win or am i going to get the loss so in addition to adding fairness it adds
Starting point is 00:28:42 fun that's cool so the commissioner is correct in trying to add this but he's incorrect in addition to adding fairness it adds fun that's cool so the commissioner is correct in trying to add this but he's incorrect in trying to do it in season and i have in a similar league where people are just annoying and they don't like change and so they didn't put it in and i've been complaining about that all year because it's like i don't i just hate leagues that are like oh change change i can't handle change. Like, change can be good, especially in fantasy football. Things are created to make it. And spoiler alert, the commissioner went back and changed it to the normal. Of course, in season.
Starting point is 00:29:15 Institute it next year. By the way, could Dan have shorter sleeves today, Jamie? My God. Oh, no, these are not short sleeves. These are correct, normal. This is what it would look like. Those are short sleeves. But look, you're playing into the stick of, you know, you want to are not short sleeves. These are correct, normal. This is what it would look like. Those are short sleeves. But look, you're playing into the stick of, you know, you want to show off your guns.
Starting point is 00:29:29 But as his hair got shorter, his sleeves got shorter, too. So, like, everything's just rising up right now. And how many times did you dry that shirt by itself on high heat? Actually, the funny thing about this shirt, I used to love this shirt. It's an amazing shirt. It's two years old. And it shrunk in the wash at one point i went to a i went to a poker game with a group of friends shout out long island crew shout out drama free and i got roasted
Starting point is 00:29:52 for two hours for wearing what they considered the tightest shirt anyone's ever worn i still love the shirt i didn't want to retire it but what you can't see is if dan stands up you see his belly button yeah okay you guys right now but it's fine like 10 seconds ago or a minute ago i roast dan for his shirt and he's defense no this is a perfectly appropriate shirt then he reveals the story it is actually not it is shrunk and you already got roasted for it by your friends all right thank you for all if he showed off the guns people would not look at his head. Yeah. Yeah, exactly. I don't blame him.
Starting point is 00:30:27 Real quick, I'll tell you my, yeah, there it is. Short distraction there. My haircut story. So in New York City, you can choose your price for a haircut.
Starting point is 00:30:39 You want to go to some fancy place? Go for it. You want to go to a chain? They have those. You want to go to like a little barbershop with very unqualified people that'll cut your hair for $15 or whatever? You can find plenty of those. So that's where I went. I got a haircut. This guy was texting during the haircut. Oh, wow. Constantly looking at his phone, not really paying attention to me. He slices my ear with the scissors.
Starting point is 00:31:09 Oh, it hurt so bad. I was bleeding, not profusely, but not, not profusely. Like I was bleeding pretty bad. I first thought I was going to have to get stitches to make matters worse.
Starting point is 00:31:22 I'm like, ah, holding my ear, bleeding into my hand. He blamed me for it. He goes, you moved. I was like, I moved? And the thing is,
Starting point is 00:31:34 I was kind of intimidated by this place because it was seedy. And I was like, I don't want to get murdered right now. I can't see you even going to a place like that. I'm like you. I get the same haircut every time. I feel like anyone with a pair of scissors could do it.
Starting point is 00:31:51 But not this schmuck. He's looking at his phone. No, I did not pay. And I did not tip. And I just left. But yes, that was... You tipped. You tipped.
Starting point is 00:32:01 You gave him the tip of the year. Yeah, exactly. But Dan, you will never get a haircut that bad. I'm thankful to report. All right, let's read some emails. Fantasy Football. Hold on. FantasyFootball at CBSi.com.
Starting point is 00:32:14 Aaron in a tiny town in Iowa. Council Bluffs. I think it's the only town. It's smaller than Dan's shirt. Not that small. It's not that small. No, it's a perfectly appropriate shirt. Here's a small. No, it's a perfectly appropriate shirt. Here's a story about how it's not a perfectly appropriate shirt.
Starting point is 00:32:29 All right. Two running back, two receiver, two flex league, half PPR. Would you trade DJ Moore straight up for Tony Pollard? Would you try to package DJ Moore with someone else for Eckler? DJ Moore for Pollard probably gets done right now. You know, if there's a running back, the team that has Pollard probably gets done right now. You know, if there's a running back,
Starting point is 00:32:47 uh, the team that has Pollard has good running back depth and needs receiver and vice versa. So I don't think that's a bad one. I'm on board with that too. All right. We've got an email from John wanted flex advice to flex 18 PPR. Breeze. So we need to Breeze hall, Calvin Ridley, Devante Smith, and Jacoby Myers.
Starting point is 00:33:12 Ridley and Myers? Wow. I'm not going to bench Ridley or Myers at this point, so I'm good with that. I mean, just Hall going against the Eagles run defense could be a little bit problematic. Hey, Dan, listen, when you're coming to Florida, we have to pack up my house because we're doing some renovation stuff. Can you bring some clothes for my kids to wear? I'll just bring them this shirt, and then they can become Mets fans. Speaking of Florida, I have a bone to pick, by the way, with all of you.
Starting point is 00:33:38 I got bashed, and we'll make this quick because we've done a lot of this on the show. More Florida bashing, okay. What'd you say? More Florida bashing. No of this on the show. I've got bashing. OK, what'd you say? More Florida bashing. No, it's the opposite. Oh, I got bashed the other day for talking about and mostly in defense of New Jersey,
Starting point is 00:33:51 which gets a lot of crap because that stupid show Jersey Shore where no one was really even from Jersey was on that show. It ruined our reputation. But I got a lot of crap for talking about how I can go within five minutes here
Starting point is 00:34:01 and I get to a mom and pop shop for Greek food, Italian, Indian, all different cuisines. And you're like, no, Florida has just as good food. And yet this week, Adam, I told Jamie, I told Dave, I told Heath, I told, well, you're not going to be down there. But I told the people who live in Florida and Fort Lauderdale, I'm coming down Fort Lauderdale for a week. I'm going to be there for a week.
Starting point is 00:34:20 I got a rental car. Nights are going to be mine. Anyone have some good food suggestions? Anyone have some good restaurant suggestions? Anyone have some good restaurant suggestions? I got nothing from these guys. Supposedly, oh, you come down to Florida. There's all sorts of good places. And don't give me a chain restaurant.
Starting point is 00:34:31 I don't want to hear about a chain restaurant. I don't like I'm talking about a mom and pop's homemade food store. Yes. And so, yes, I will. I will. The best burger that I've ever had. Whoa. It is not too far. It is not too far from the office.
Starting point is 00:34:48 Okay. And I'm sure you can get some of the guys to go with you. Georgie's Alibi, it's called. And I don't know if they still have the same burgers. I haven't been there in years. But the Knockout and the Champ, you can pick which one. One of them has a jalapeno cream cheese. It's really not too spicy because I don't like spicy stuff.
Starting point is 00:35:03 Georgie's Alibi is the best burger that I've ever had. It is so damn good. Yeah. And also, what's the place in Boca, the burger place, with the cowboy style?
Starting point is 00:35:14 You already gave me the best burger. I don't want another one. Charm City is another one that's fantastic. It's not Boca. It's Deerfield. Deerfield. All right.
Starting point is 00:35:20 Yeah, great. But do they bake their burgers? Yes, they do. That's the secret. All right. Back to the emails here. We'll give you some recommendations then. Okay, great. But do they bake their burgers? Yes, they do. That's the secret. All right, back to the emails here. We'll give you some recommendations, Dan. Okay, good. And I mean, you sent that email.
Starting point is 00:35:30 The first thing I said to you was, we'll go out to lunch. I know, that was very nice of you. And we will go out to lunch. But I was just hoping, you know, get some names of places we all hear. Oh, Florida, great for food. I don't think you need to make any reservations. So you should be okay. Okay.
Starting point is 00:35:43 From Sean, 10 team. Oh, by the way, Miles Sanders is out. We'll talk about that in a second. Cool. From Sean, 10 team PPR Superflex. I was offered this trade. Give up in Superflex. Give up Howell, Tyreek Hill, and Sam Laporta.
Starting point is 00:35:58 Get Lamar Jackson, Devante Adams, and Dallas Goddard. Howell, Hill, Laporta. Get Lamar Jackson, Devante Adams, and Dallas Goddard. How will Laporta get Lamar Jackson, Devontae Adams, and Dallas Goddard? 1QB League? 2QB, Superflex. I'm taking it for Lamar Jackson alone. Yeah, if it's 2QB, Superflex, you have to take the Lamar Jackson side of this. From Kenneth, Damian Pierce, Jonathan Taylor, or Amari Cooper? Taylor.
Starting point is 00:36:26 Damian Pierce, Jonathan Taylor, or Amari Cooper? Taylor. Damian Pierce, Jonathan Taylor, or Amari Cooper? Yeah. Definitely not Cooper with Walker. Definitely not. Yeah, not Pierce either. I guess Taylor. From Nathan. Two running backs and a flex in PPR.
Starting point is 00:36:40 Zach Moss, Kyron Williams, Montgomery, ETN, Kamara, Waddle. Wow. All right, it's not going to be Moss, Kyron Williams, Montgomery, ETN, Camara, Waddle. Wow. All right, it's not going to be Moss, so pick two. Kyron Williams, Montgomery, ETN, Camara. Ooh, that's tough. Montgomery and Camara. I don't think I can bench ETN, so I'm going to go ETN and Montgomery.
Starting point is 00:37:02 All right, then give me two flexes. Kyron Williams, Montgomery, ETN, Camara, W to go ETN and Montgomery. All right, then give me two flexes. Kyron Williams, Montgomery ETN, Kamara Waddle. Williams and Kamara. Williams and ETN. The four running backs. One flex, my bad. One flex. I'll go ETN.
Starting point is 00:37:17 Kamara. All right, from John, start three. Montgomery, Eckler, Pollard, ETN. You have to sit one of these guys. Montgomery, Eckler, Pollard, ETN. You have to sit one of these guys. Montgomery, Eckler, Pollard, or ETN? Montgomery sits. I guess I'm sitting Montgomery, but I could make... Yeah, I'll sit Montgomery.
Starting point is 00:37:33 Actually, no, I'm going to sit ETN. I was thinking Pollard, maybe. I have not liked what I've seen from Pollard or that offense. Yeah, but this is... This should be a get-right spot. Yes, it should be, yep. From Rick, I have to drop either JSN a get-right spot. Yes, it should be. Yep. From Rick, I have to drop either JSN
Starting point is 00:37:47 or Quinton Johnston. Who do I drop? Great question. I would drop JSN right now just because at least there's a path to success right away for Johnston. I'll say this
Starting point is 00:38:00 with regards to that. I thought... The dynasty conversation we had. What are you laughing at? I'll say this with regards to that. Yeah, dynasty conversation we had what are you laughing at i'll say this with regards to that yeah that was a funny way this is a little bit of filibuster to get to in my head where i want to set where i want to talk about on the dynasty show this week with matt wallman we discussed that situation with jsn and a good point was made about how those two offensive tackles have been out and it's really led to a lot more 12 personnel which is two tight ends and some 13 personnel,
Starting point is 00:38:25 three tight ends. It's limited his possibility, maybe coming out of the bi-week, like, cause the idea was they always did want to go to more of what, you know, comes from that McVeigh tree, which is 11 personnel,
Starting point is 00:38:35 three receivers on the field, let JSN eat. And so I think I would actually keep JSN there. Okay. Uh, next email after the emails, we'll, we'll get to miles Sanders.
Starting point is 00:38:44 I promise. Oh gosh. Oh the emails, we'll get to Miles Sanders, I promise. Oh, gosh. Oh, that was brutal. Yeah, that's a Commanders fan controlling the comments. He's right, though. That's the worst part. Yeah. Dan is trying to be Shakespeare.
Starting point is 00:38:55 I don't quite know what that means, but neither does Dan. I'll tell you that. To be or not to be. Not to be wearing that shirt. Not that bad. This shirt is not that bad. This one is from Ben. Hey, Tony.
Starting point is 00:39:08 Romeo, Romeo, where far out there will my hair go? That is the bigger problem. Tony, Troy, Danny, and Andy. It's not Toy Story. Tony, Troy, Danny, and Andy. Cowboys, quarterbacks?
Starting point is 00:39:22 Yeah. There's an Andy in Toy Story, right? No, in Toy Story? Andy's the main kid. Okay, that's what I thought. I haven't seen it that way. I've seen like,
Starting point is 00:39:30 I'd like to be more into Toy Story. 10-team PPR, rank these waiver wire priorities. Deontay Johnson, Tajay Spears, JSN, Quinton Johnston, Jeff Wilson,
Starting point is 00:39:43 and Tank Bigsby. Wow. Do you need somebody for this week, or is this more of a long-term play? I think long-term. Because I think the long-term play is probably TyJ Spears. I mean, I got to, yeah, maybe.
Starting point is 00:40:02 But Jeff Wilson, I got to pick up Jeff Wilson. Well, I mean, the second guy for me would be Deontay Johnson, just because I think if he comes back healthy, that's going to be six, seven catches a week, potentially. And yes, you should drop Ferguson for some of these guys. Jalen Warren. I think I'd rather have Warren or Spears. I think I'd rather have Spears.
Starting point is 00:40:23 Spears. I would rather have Spears, Spears. I would rather have Spears too. All right, from Craig. I need to find a wide receiver for this week. Michael Thomas. Deontay Johnson, Michael Thomas, and Rushie Rice are all available for week seven. Oh, okay, this is a week seven question, sorry.
Starting point is 00:40:43 Deontay Johnson, Michael Thomas, and Rasheed Rice are all available. For week seven and rest of the season, who would you choose? And I think he might have to drop Tank Dell for one of them. So I don't know if you should do that. But Tank Dell is on a bye next week. And he's not playing this week. He's already been ruled out. So if you're in a league where there's no IR spots and Deontay Johnson's been on the waiver wire,
Starting point is 00:41:03 I'm going to guess Tank Dell probably will make it on the waiver wire too, or, you know, at least there's the hope of that. So if you have to plan ahead for week seven, drop tank Dell, pick up Deontay Johnson and just hope that you can maybe get him back. All right.
Starting point is 00:41:15 How about from Phil? Hey, Tommy, Arthur, John, and Finn feels like a show Dan should watch. Tommy, Arthur, John, and Finn.
Starting point is 00:41:26 If I hear Finn, I just always think of Sopranos, Meadows' boyfriend, but that can't be right. I think of Glee, but I think it's Peaky Blinders. Oh, I have heard that show's amazing, and it's one of the rare elite shows I haven't watched. Kate just said, oh, no, that's not true. Dad type of dude who kisses biceps
Starting point is 00:41:47 before he bench presses. I don't even do... The bicep is the one area of muscle group I don't actually work on ever. Nice stretch there. Very subtle. All right,
Starting point is 00:41:55 grade the trade from Phil. That is an actual stretch. Gave up most... That's what Sung said. My niece could use Dan's shirt. Oh, my God. Give up Mostert and Garrett Wilson.
Starting point is 00:42:07 This is the second time I've been bashed for this shirt. I tried two different groups of friends. I can't believe I decided to wear this game. I guess I have to throw this shirt out. I loved this shirt. No, no, no, no, no. Such a good shirt. Give it to a five-year-old Mets fan.
Starting point is 00:42:17 It'll fit perfectly. You should know that Jamie gave me two of his shirts from when he was about 10 years old, and I wear them to this day. They fit me perfectly. Phil said, I traded Mostert and Garrett Wilson for Devante Adams. Mostert and Garrett Wilson for Devante Adams? Wait.
Starting point is 00:42:38 It sounds great, but then Mostert still has some good time left. I mean, I guess if you have running back depth, which no one has. I would do this. B plus. I just, I wonder how much of last week was Devontae Adams' shoulder really being a problem. Interesting. Yeah, whatever.
Starting point is 00:42:57 Like, I don't know. I'm fine with it. I feel like Adams is going to be awesome. On paper, it's fine. All right. Which two would you want rest of season? Russell Wilson, Justin Fields, Matthew Stafford, Deshaun
Starting point is 00:43:10 Watson, Brock Purdy, Jordan Love. Pick two rest of season. Fields is an easy one. Let me read them again for the audience. Fields and one more. Wilson, Stafford, Watson, Purdy, Love. Purdy for me. I would say Purdy although if
Starting point is 00:43:29 Stafford is going to look like he did last week there's a higher ceiling for Stafford and that'll be that's it for that all right we'll take a break when we come back we'll talk about the Panthers backfield against the Dolphins and read your YouTube questions so get those YouTube questions, go.
Starting point is 00:43:48 Dan, the type of guy to say there's no good food in Florida and then eat at Denny's. That's not true. I don't eat at Denny's. No. Moons over Miami. Have you ever had a moons over Miami from Denny's? No.
Starting point is 00:43:59 I don't think I've ever been to a Denny's. Oh, it's so good. It is so good, man. It is definitely a good stop on the way home from a night out yeah oh yeah nothing better all right we'll take we'll be right back nothing better adam there's nothing like that kind of food that's what i'm gonna drive right now you're the designated driver what do you mean oh you don't have to be drunk i'm just saying like it's it's late you're in good mood. You're with your friends.
Starting point is 00:44:25 Those types of places are the best. Way to spin it. Way to spin it. Great memories. All right, folks. Joe Petonio out. David Njoku out. Are questionable.
Starting point is 00:44:35 Tank Dell out. No, nothing yet on the show. All right, we'll be right back. Get those YouTube questions in or comments about Dancer. We'll be right back. All right, everybody. Let's talk about Chuba Hubbard in or comments about Dan Sarah. We'll be right back. All right, everybody. Let's talk about Chuba Hubbard. Jamie, where do you think you're going to rank him?
Starting point is 00:44:48 I kind of already ranked him as if Sanders wasn't playing. I just have to remove Sanders, so I put him at 23. So low end number two running back. I would start him ahead of Jonathan Taylor. I would start him ahead of Jerome Ford, ahead of Rashad White, ahead of Damian Pierce, that group. I always get concerned about... Oh, wait, before I get onto this random topic.
Starting point is 00:45:12 How about the Joshes and KJ Osborne? Josh Palmer, Josh Reynolds, Josh Downs, KJ Osborne, or Chuba Hubbard? The only one I would put Hubbard ahead of as of now because Laporta has not been ruled out is Josh Reynolds. But the other Joshes and KJ I would start over Chuba. Foreman or Hubbard? Question from YouTube.
Starting point is 00:45:34 I would go with Foreman. Yeah, me too. Alright, if you guys have any Chuba Hubbard questions, go for it. He's only, last check, about 62% rostered. Here are our YouTube questions. Full PPR. TyJ Spears
Starting point is 00:45:50 or Justice Hill? You've got to go with Hill for now just because he's getting more opportunities. The one thing I think that if you are in the Spears camp for this week is if the Titans are trailing he'll be on the field probably a lot more. True. And so that could certainly help him. But I think if the Titans are trailing, he'll be on the field probably a lot more.
Starting point is 00:46:06 True. And so that could certainly help him. But I think if the Titans are trailing that justice, he'll probably had some hand in it. So I would lean toward him. Okay. Um, trade hurts and Olave from a homes and ETN.
Starting point is 00:46:21 That's interesting. I would do it. It seems like you're in a position where you need running back. So I would do it. Yeah, I think so. Just knowing that ETN's been fantastic so far. Traded Garrett Wilson, Brian Robinson, Chris Godwin, Jordan Addison. For Ken Walker, T. Higgins, and Brandon Ayuk.
Starting point is 00:46:42 10-team half PPR. Oh, I like this a lot feels like an A plus to me actually yeah I don't know if I like it a lot because I don't really know what I can expect from T Higgins well let me ask you this question which B Rob is it it better not probably Brian Robinson
Starting point is 00:46:58 if it's B Jean then forget it then it's a terrible obviously then it's a horrible trade but assuming it's Brian Robinson I just think this is like Kenneth Walker and Iuke alone I don't know if there's any Obviously, then it's a horrible trade. But assuming it's Bryan Robinson, I just think this is... Like Kenneth Walker and Ayuk alone, I don't know if there's any player from the other side I like more than those two movie corps.
Starting point is 00:47:12 Yeah, do it. Do it and let the English see you do it. But it's so lopsided that maybe it is Bijan Robinson. What an amazing reference from you just there. I used to be able to do the accents, but... What's that from? My favorite movie, Braveheart. What's that?
Starting point is 00:47:27 Okay. Pierce... I've never seen it. Non-PPR. Is this a trade or... Pierce for Stevenson. I don't know if that's supposed to be Pierce or Stevenson. But who do you like rest of season?
Starting point is 00:47:38 Who do you like this week? Stevenson this week. Yeah. Rest of season is a great call because how bad are the Patriots going to be? The schedule lightens up for both of these guys. I think there's more touchdown potential for Pierce, so I would lean that way. But it's close.
Starting point is 00:47:55 I know Dan has to leave now, so you can leave whenever you need. You can answer this last question from David A. Which two rest of season? Bad haircut, tiny shirt, or picky eater? I'm not a picky either let me make that clear david i eat everything so i will try this the snail the rabbit that adam said he wouldn't eat i would eat all that i eat everything i ate it i just i just like quality food okay and i like
Starting point is 00:48:16 homemade picky it's snobby eater snobby's fine if you want to call it that i'm okay with that even i don't agree with it i'm okay with it i just like quality and i like mom and pop's homemade food not just chain crap i don't mind if you if you um if you come to florida and eat at let's say one of each of the recommendations dave will give you yes you will never fit in that shirt ever again uh now she had before i before i get out here can i get a grade the team name because adam always says oh dan's not creative he doesn't have a team name okay i got brock purdy in a lot of leagues this year i played a lot of super flex so one that i've gone with in multiple leagues and i didn't see anyone pick it yet and and that's the other thing adam used a lot of team names that
Starting point is 00:48:58 he already found online and just like copies them found a lot of his own original idea yeah that happened false uh no i'm kidding know. I'm just joking. Obviously. I hope people understand that. But mine that I thought, I think I came up because I don't think anyone had it is pretty, pretty good. Not bad.
Starting point is 00:49:13 Right. Adam, I got a team name for you. I'm going to grade it. It's an a plus. Okay. I can leave on that note. Goodbye.
Starting point is 00:49:20 I'm going to give you the team name. You sing it. Ready? Yeah. Hold me closer. Tiny shirt guy. We already left or I would have. No, sing it.
Starting point is 00:49:30 No, I cannot do that today. Najee Harris or Chuba Hubbard. Rest of season. Oh, still Najee. A half point. I need a running back and a flex. Barkley, Pierce, Hopkins, Devante Smith. Devante Smith would be the receiver, so the flex.
Starting point is 00:49:49 And if Saquon plays, I'd play Saquon over Pierce. Yeah, well, if he doesn't play, it's Pierce. Brian Robinson or Devon Achan, rest of season? Wow, factoring in the four games missed. You ain't got to go Robinson just to be safe. But that's the thing, unless I miss something, I don't know that it's four games. Right, no, that's the thing. It's a gamble.
Starting point is 00:50:10 Yeah. But if you, you know, like, so I made one offer for A-chan. I forget who I was trying to acquire. I'm not sure. I don't remember. But it got rejected. And then the counter was Javante Javante Williams for HN. Oh,
Starting point is 00:50:26 and I was like, no way, no way. Like would you trade Damian Pierce? Would you trade HN for Damian Pierce? In that league? I would. Yes.
Starting point is 00:50:34 I mean, here's the thing. If you do that though, just that specifically, you don't want to start Pierce this week and he has a buy next week. Yeah. That's the thing you got to take into account. Like,
Starting point is 00:50:41 you know, so in the, in the, I have HN in two leagues, I think at least two. And one is four four and one and one is one and four, the one in four, one I'm desperate to trade him the four and one, one I'm desperate to keep him.
Starting point is 00:50:53 Right. Okay. Uh, Hollywood Brown or Deandre Hopkins. I would go with Brown this week. Garrett Wilson or Alexander Madison. And PPR is close. I or Alexander Madison? In PPR, it's close. I'll go Madison.
Starting point is 00:51:09 Colin wants a quarterback upgrade. Who's the best wide receiver you'd trade for Lamar Jackson? No, we would not trade Chase. We would not trade Cup. Would you trade any of the other guys? Puka, Olave, Kirk, or Gabe Davis for Jackson? If you can turn Kirk into Lamar Jackson, I would try to do that.
Starting point is 00:51:26 I would probably go as high as Olave. I would leave the other three alone, unless you just want to alleviate the problem of having the two Rams. It may not be as great as we saw last week. I wouldn't be surprised, but it just might be a headache that you're dealing with. Yeah, but don't trade Kopp. Do not trade Kopp. Do not trade Chase. Those two
Starting point is 00:51:41 are off the table. Chuba Hubbard or Josh Downs? We kind of said table. Okay. Chuba Hubbard or Josh Downs? We kind of said that earlier, but Chuba Hubbard or Josh Downs? I'm going to go Downs and PPR. Jamie, the type of dude to whistle while he organizes his sock drawer. I like to whistle. I'm a whistler, so I might be doing that. Yeah, he is a whistler.
Starting point is 00:51:58 I definitely whistle while I work. Also, if you ever are around Jamie, don't give him a clickable pen. He clicks the hell out of the pens, right? Don't you do that? You like click the pen?
Starting point is 00:52:11 Oh, I, so I always, I'm usually like fidgeting with something. Right now, I have our St. Jude clip in my hand,
Starting point is 00:52:19 the magnet. So I'm constantly like tapping the magnet back and forth. Like if you hear, I do this a lot. And then I also have, always, you probably see me like reach for stuff all the time.
Starting point is 00:52:27 So when I redid the setup, I have one of the little wrenches here, I think, I forgot what these are called. Are those Allen wrenches? I think so. And I play with that all the time. I'm always fidgeting with that. And then also, these are little things we plug in for our microphones.
Starting point is 00:52:41 So these little things. So I always have the little knob thing, and I'm always doing this a lot too, so you probably hear this from time to time. That's a quarter inch. Yep. Yeah. Okay. Brian Robinson or Andre Stevenson. I didn't hear what you said, but I think I know what you said and I'm ignoring it. Brian Robinson. I would go with Robinson. Josh Downs. Do you hear that or do you hear this right now yeah i did all the time i don't know how you've never said anything i wouldn't hear it unless we were totally silent and listening for it downs or rashad white uh downs all right uh A few more here. Deontay Foreman, Kenneth Gainwell, or Tajay Spears? Foreman.
Starting point is 00:53:32 And Rashad White or Tutu or Amari DiMarcato? Oh, if there's no Keontae Ingrams, easy DiMarcato. If there's, I'd probably still go Rashad White. So DiMarcato or Rashad White. Tutu is going to be touchdown or bust, I think. Last one here. Let's get a good one. Zacherts or Dalton Schultz? You ended on a great one.
Starting point is 00:53:54 I'll go with Schultz. Debo Samuel or Gabe Davis? Davis. Okay. Phelan or Ayuk? Phelan. All right. We're out of here.
