Starting point is 00:00:00 You know, some trips are just better when you can really unplug. Spend time with family, see friends, or hit the course with the guys on our yearly golf trip. This year, me and the boys stayed in a home on Airbnb, which happened to be a guest favorite, and it was right on the course. We could walk straight to tee off every morning, and it was just a short stroll to the local shops, bars, and restaurants. Staying in a place on Airbnb gives you plenty of room to spread out, cozy living areas to hang out in, and all the privacy you need. Staying somewhere like that makes everything feel more like a home than a hotel, and you get a real feel for the neighborhood. I'm already planning on how to go bigger and better next year. Luckily, there's so many options to choose from on Airbnb.
Starting point is 00:00:43 So whether it's family, friends, or golf getaway, my biggest tip is to check out Airbnb, check out their guest favorites, which are the most loved homes on Airbnb, and you'll be amazed at what you find.

Starting point is 00:03:21 whoever's the healthiest team at this point, as opposed to whoever the best team is. Not that the teams that are going to make the playoffs are bad, but I mean, we've lost a lot of great players this season and, you know, probably going to lose one or two more, unfortunately, as the next couple weeks unfold. Dan will be here soon.
Starting point is 00:03:35 We're going to give him a colorblindness test, see if you can do better than me. And we'll get your emails, fantasy football at CBSI.com. We have some Apple podcast questions. We have some YouTube comments. We have the fantasy. and we're going to start with your YouTube comments.
Starting point is 00:03:53 Oh, here he comes. Here he comes. Oh, nice to see you, Dan Schneier. I told you I was running a little late. What do you want for me? I want you to get your mic settings proper. That's what I want you to do. And happy holidays, Dan.
Starting point is 00:04:12 Happy holidays, boys. You ready to take a colorblindness test? After YouTube, you're going to take a colorblindness test. Oh, boy. On air? Yep. What do you mean after? After we do our YouTube comments,
Starting point is 00:04:23 we're going to do the colorblindest test. Okay. I'm going to see if you can do better than me. I did horribly. We'll see. I'll tell you what I got after we do your. All right, here we go. Any concern about A.J. Brown and his wisdom teeth.
Starting point is 00:04:35 It says his Wilson teeth. All right. We're good. Oh, we're on air already. Oh, hello. We're on the air. I didn't know we were alive yet. Yeah, I'm not waiting six minutes for you or four.
Starting point is 00:04:49 I told you. I was running some Christmas errands. It was a little bit late today. Yeah. That was Dan lady. He works from home. I thought you were going to wait to start the show for me. We usually do that for Jamie, for other people.
Starting point is 00:05:02 He never waits for me. No, I don't. What's that time comes? It's there. All right. Who's winning this? The only person he waits for is Dave. True.
Starting point is 00:05:10 Oh, this is a, this is like. Definitely shows favoritism towards Dave. Such a disadvantage for one side. Christian McCaffrey and James Cook versus Josh Jacobs and Derek Henner. Henry, who wins? Who's going to score more? What do you think? Yeah, it's not even close.
Starting point is 00:05:23 We think not even close McCaffrey Cook. Yeah. Here we go. Parker, Becky Irving, Ken Walker, Teddler-O-Mcillian. Is it Emma today? I see some comments from producer
Starting point is 00:05:34 in the comment section that I'm not appreciative of. Who got today? It's Emma. Okay, Emma. You're building something up here, Emma. We might have to have a little talk after the show. All right, pick two.
Starting point is 00:05:47 Are we sure it's Parker, Washington, or somebody named Parker and somebody named Washington. Devante Parker, George Washington, Bucky Irving, Ken Walker, Tetero, McMillan,
Starting point is 00:05:57 pick two. I'm trying to think there's another Parker. It's got to be part. Oh, because there's Parker and Washington. Parker, Washington.
Starting point is 00:06:04 Give you a break. There's definitely no other Washington right now. Yeah, I guess they're not Washington on the Steelers. So yeah, go,
Starting point is 00:06:10 who'd you say, Jamie, who do you like? I would go, Bucky and Tederoa. Yeah, I mean, I don't think so.
Starting point is 00:06:17 I don't think I want Tetaro It's the Seahawks. I mean, we're not talking about the slam dunk options here. No, these are bad. These are real bad. Bucky has the most upside. I may go Bucky and Walker.
Starting point is 00:06:29 Drake May or Josh Atlin? May. Drake May. Um, let's see. Half PBR. Give me a wide receiver and a running back. Brian Thomas Jr. Oh, AJ Brown.
Starting point is 00:06:44 And the running back is Ken Walker or Ranjay Stevens. Stevenson. What if Henderson plays? Stevenson. Hampton or Henderson, if he plays? I'd probably go Hampton. With and without Vidal? I assume Vidal's out, right?
Starting point is 00:07:08 Don't know. Okay. Hampton. This is one of the toughest weeks right now for our purposes, because there have been no practice reports, basically. Right. Just estimations. So I don't, hopefully, this is about the time where we start to get more updates by about 12, 15 p.m.
Starting point is 00:07:28 I watched a movie last night, boys. Mega Fitzpatrick was ruled out. Oh, there we go. See, we're getting updates. The new Knives Out movie. You guys see it? Oh, no, no. It was very good.
Starting point is 00:07:38 It was, rolled out. Yeah, let's go back to the fantasy, though. No, that's okay. Hampton, Bucky, Ken Walker. Um, I'm Hampton Hampton for sure I think I'm going on Walker
Starting point is 00:07:55 I'll sit Walker I'll sit Walker too Kenneth Wayne Keneth Gainwell Jalen Warren, Teterole McMillan pick two I'm going to start the Steelers Gainwell and Warren for me too I'm not high on Tetero McMillan at all this week Okay so
Starting point is 00:08:10 Can you name 20 receivers you are high on because that's I know this is true this is sad Jacob and I were going over this week. There's just like nothing left at receiver. Bucky Irving or DeAndre Swift. Swift. Lab McConkey or Travis E.T.N. E.N.
Starting point is 00:08:28 I would go with... Oh, full PPR. E.T.N. Still going E.T.N. Pick two. Drake London, Teterole McMillan, Devante Smith, or Stefan Dogs? I would go Diggs and London.
Starting point is 00:08:44 Definitely not tat So Smitty and Whoa What the heck is that That was Stefan dogs Wow That was
Starting point is 00:08:58 Don't ever do that again That's alarming That's better Do you think that's a dog Or is that somebody impersonating a dog Somebody impersonating a dog Ruff Ruff Who is it who
Starting point is 00:09:11 That's somebody impersonating a dog Who is it Rough, rough, rough, rough. It's you. No, it's Dave. Really? Yeah. Oh, Cameron Dicker or Cam Little, Jamie?
Starting point is 00:09:26 Little. Eliminate kickers from your league, but for now, I'll go with Little. So, Warren or Tassum Hill, Tyler Warren or Tassum Hill? Still Warren. I'll go Taysam Hill. Devante Smith or Jalen Warren? Jailen Warren. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:44 Dylan, Samson, or Michael Carter? Samson even playing? We don't know. He's limited. Yeah, I'd go Carter, but it's close. Carter. Okay, and last one. Bucky Irving, Tetero McMillan, Luther Burden, or Parker, Washington, full PPR, pick one.
Starting point is 00:10:05 Bucky, T. Mack, Burden, Washington. Full PPR. I think I might go Washington. I would go with I'm most faith in him I'd just go with Bucky I hope he scores I guess
Starting point is 00:10:21 man um I should get some catches and it's gonna be a nice environment for throwing the ball Jeff's here Jeff who got 17 questions We cracked a new code for Adam picking questions What is it?
Starting point is 00:10:34 He picks almost all of Jeff's questions Jeff Sills because of the Homer Simpson avatar Adam doesn't notice it I don't. It's a coincidence, I swear. Adam's a very biased question, Jr. I am not.
Starting point is 00:10:47 It really is. It's so obvious. So, Dan, I love the first Knives out. I was pretty bored by the Glass Onion one and couldn't get through it. He did that one, not bored. I thought it was an abomination of it. Oh, okay. This one's better?
Starting point is 00:11:02 This one, some people thought it was better than the first. I still think one is the best, but this one had the best ending. I hope that's not a spoiler. It's really not. The first one was the one with Chris Evans, right? The first knives? I don't know who Chris Evan really is. Captain America. Was he in that?
Starting point is 00:11:18 My memory's bad. Yeah, I think he was. I never saw the second one. The first one was good. I mean, Daniel Craig's like the main guy in it, but he's in all of them, right? Yeah, he, what's his name again? He's got the Dwarland's accent. Wham! Yeah, it's good.
Starting point is 00:11:34 I watched, I've been watching the night before trying to get through it. It's so funny. I love that movie. So this is family. But last night was family movie night, and tonight is another family movie night. Oh. And we're choosing a movie that I've never seen my brother. It's a movie I've never seen and my brother's never seen.
Starting point is 00:11:55 And it's a movie that, quite frankly, without having seen Rocky, I'm willing to suggest is a much better movie once again than Rocky. Yeah. Apocalypse now. I guarantee it's going to be better than Rocky. It is. I mean, it's just a better movie. It's going to be longer.
Starting point is 00:12:09 talking about a great take on war versus like another movie about a guy coming up and he's a boxer. Yeah, another one. Another one from 50 years ago. Are you kidding? Same story over. He's a tough boxer.
Starting point is 00:12:22 He's down on his house. He's got a fight. He's an underdog story. Like, I'm sure it's amazing. I'm sure it's amazing. But it's not really that unique. But it's not apocalypse now, which I've never seen. It's not going to be Apocalypse now.
Starting point is 00:12:33 It's not going to be Goodfell. It's not going to be seven, no. It is a interesting choice for family movie night. Yeah, it is. Yeah. I wonder how my mom's going to like and my dad loves it. I've never seen it either, actually. All right, you ready to take the test?
Starting point is 00:12:46 Yeah, let's see how colorblind we are. I'm red-green. I know what I am already, but let's see how bad it is. Jamie, who do you think we'll do better? I've already taken it. I know what I got, but who do you think we'll do better? Me or Dan? You.
Starting point is 00:12:58 Okay. Dan, you see this 12 here? Yeah, I see the 12. Okay, so we're going to have a series of numbers that are written in dots in circles. I got to turn up the brightness on my computer screen. I'm cheating now. Geez. All right.
Starting point is 00:13:12 You need to put on special glasses to help you with this too? All right. Ready? Here we go. That's a great comment from front row. That looks bad.
Starting point is 00:13:19 Oh, wait, first of all, before you even do this, in the chat, do not give the answers. Dan, go to the private chat. Go to the private chat.
Starting point is 00:13:26 Go to the private chat. All right, Dan, go for it. What number do you see here? It's already struggling. 21. 21. Okay.
Starting point is 00:13:37 What next? Oh, man. This is a nightmare. Ready? Eight. Next. Maybe. Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:13:45 You're supposed to be able to see a number here? Two numbers. Two numbers? I can't see anything either. This is crazy. Who could see anything? I have no guess. I have no guess for this.
Starting point is 00:13:56 Next? No guess. No guess here either? Oh, wait, wait. I might see a two in there. I don't know. Is that a seven? Something like a seven or a two.
Starting point is 00:14:05 Go, which one? I'm going to go, but then there's probably a second number. No. Just go with one. Yeah, there's only one number. This is two numbers. This, I think I see, 29. Okay.
Starting point is 00:14:15 Next, one number. No shot. When it gets this red-greeny, it's real tough for me. Zero. Two numbers. No, no, no. Next year, we have two numbers. No, no, no.
Starting point is 00:14:32 This is nothing. No guess. Okay. No, what I'm going to do to say random? One number. What number here? This may be a two. This may be a two.
Starting point is 00:14:39 All right. Like a, more so looks like a snake. Two numbers here. Oh, man, this is bad. I don't see anything either. I can't guess when I have no like, Jamie, you can, hold on,
Starting point is 00:14:53 Jamie, what are the two numbers here? 97. Wow, you're going to do XX. Deb in there? Yeah, it's amazing. I see nothing. One number here, Dan. I see nothing.
Starting point is 00:15:03 I see nothing. Nothing here, okay? Again, nothing. Jamie, what's the number there? No, no, no, but, but, but, but, by. Dan, I think you might, be able to get this one. All right.
Starting point is 00:15:11 This is one of the easier ones. Two numbers. It's colors that I should be able to see, but I can't see anything. Really? This is crazy. I can't see anything. I didn't know I was this badly colorblind. All right.
Starting point is 00:15:22 I know it's bad. Nothing here. Last one. One number. It's crazy. Jamie's just picking these off easily and I can't even see a thing. What number here? I got nothing.
Starting point is 00:15:33 Jamie, what do you see? Three. Where is the three? Before I hit the X here, I got a four out of 20. Dan got a two. A two out of, oh, out of 18. Okay, I got a four out of 18 then. You got a two.
Starting point is 00:15:47 All right, you're worse than me. Wow, how about that? I can't believe that. I can't believe you could just see those, Jamie. Yeah. I can't see anything. I don't even understand how anyone could see anything there, honestly. That's, it's a different world we live in.
Starting point is 00:16:00 Apparently, there are glasses that can help us. Wouldn't you love to see all these colors? Should we wear the glasses? I think so. You wear the nose strip or the glasses. I mean, Dan wears a nose trip on a live stream. Of course they'll wear glass. Yeah, really.
Starting point is 00:16:10 I'm not afraid of that. Would that be great if he had, like, these dorky glasses at a nose strip? Just like, it's just, this new look. All right. Listen, we'll be right back on fantasy football today with your, you two, with your emails. Oh, crazy. And we'll be right back after this. Tyler Reddick here from 2311 racing.
Starting point is 00:16:30 And Bubba Wallace. You know what's the worst part of a race? A rain delay. Sitting around, waiting for the track to dry is dull. But instead of waiting, We hang out with Chumba Casino. Social casino slots, bingo, solitaire, plenty of fun to keep us entertained. So why let a rain delay slow you down?
Starting point is 00:16:48 Play now at chumbacasino.com. Let's Chumba! Sponsored by Chumba Casino. No purchase necessary. VGWPortwear prohibited by law, 21 plus. Terms and conditions apply. We're back. I'm stunned at how bad that was.
Starting point is 00:17:00 By the way, I got Lasic vision. Just so those notes, people are saying, oh, my God, is the worst. I say, even laser surgery couldn't help me. Yeah, but that's totally different than colorblindness. No, but they should be able to fix both. All right, there's a question here. Jamie was wondering about this. So it says, I wonder if Dan and Adam have trouble with stoplights.
Starting point is 00:17:19 By the way, Simpsons Avatar. Yeah, no trouble with stoplights. It's only when they're together. It's when the colors are together, like in the colorblind test we just took. When it's separated colors, we're fine. Yeah, yeah, we're good. We're good. Okay, emails.
Starting point is 00:17:31 We got two questions here. I have George Kittle. Do I start Brenton Strange or wait until Monday and start Cody Parkinson? and that's number one strange but yeah kiddle i would drop parkinson oh kiddle was in that and so he's waiting and he'll play parkinson if kiddle doesn't play type of thing yeah but i would do it with johnson for tongus yeah it's drop parkinson for tangus and wait it out uh number two i'm projected to beat my opponent by 15 plus points right now he's already had three guys go i haven't had anyone play he has tray mcbride should i start jacobby
Starting point is 00:18:08 over Josh Allen to offset some of the McBride impact? I wouldn't do that for that reason. If you're concerned about Josh Allen against the Eagles at less than 100%, even though McDermott said today that he's fine, then you can pivot to Brissette. But, and I'm saying this but because Josh Allen was bad last week too, the last thing you want to do is go into your offseason knowing that you benched the number one quarterback in fantasy
Starting point is 00:18:32 right to try and offset something from somebody else. Yeah. I actually kind of I'm feeling this strategy up 15 he's got McBride who could just have a huge game I guess taking that into account
Starting point is 00:18:46 I wasn't really thinking about that that's not a bad call I think I'm going to do that I think in this case I'm going to start I'm going to start and I'm almost always that you start the guy
Starting point is 00:18:53 you think is going to score the most points I am always you start the guy but I have a little bit of concern about you what happened there my elbow slipped off the armrest that was really
Starting point is 00:19:04 pathetic Like, I have a little bit concerned. I need a jiff of that. That was really, it was like, really bad. Oh, man. Yeah, I don't know. I would start percent in your specific scenario. Dan apparently would not.
Starting point is 00:19:20 I would not. I mean, I guess the, the negative would be is that Josh Allen goes off and you lose because of that point differential. Right. But his, this opponent's best player at this. point is probably McBride, you know, or very close to it. And how can McBride have a great game if Preset doesn't? It has to be a lot of catches and yards, no touchdown. It's very possible. Right. It's full PPR. And it is. All right, so you got two different
Starting point is 00:19:50 perspectives there. Here's a good one from Scott. I understand a lot will transpire between now and next season, but assuming that the Titans do right by Cam Ward and surround him with legit weapons, which quarterback are you going to have the most shares of in 2026? Cam or Caleb Williams. Caleb Williams, for me. He'll just get better and better in Ben Johnson system, I think. Though, Cam Ward with, if Kubiak comes over as their coach, is definitely intriguing for fantasy next year.
Starting point is 00:20:19 I think from what it sounds like, they're targeting Nagy. Yeah, I don't, oh, ew, what? Oh, boy, seriously. Who's targeting Nagy? That shouldn't be a target of anyone. That should be a, oh, I couldn't get anybody. Let's go to Matt Nagy. Yeah, it's a little strange.
Starting point is 00:20:35 Who's targeting Matt Nagy in 2025 or 2026? Crazy. From Kyle, full PPR, Drake May or Matthew Stanford. And Stafford. Stafford, okay. And Flex. It's a great comment from Big Farts. I haven't seen it.
Starting point is 00:20:52 Big Farts always coming at me. Oh, my gosh. I'm not reading that. Oh, man. So, Dan thinks the Boise State football field. looks perfectly normal. I'm just laughing at the other one. All right, from Kyle, PPR.
Starting point is 00:21:12 We're saying Stafford over May. We need a flex. Mike Evans, Ramandre Stevenson, or Kenneth Gainwell. Stevenson would be the easy choice if Henderson is out. I'd go Evans otherwise. Okay.
Starting point is 00:21:26 It's PPR at him or no? Yeah. Oh, I'm going Evans. All right. Actually, you know what? Stevenson would know Henderson and probably is the play over Evans. It is time for football with BetMGM.

Starting point is 00:22:08 do you think I should start Brees Hall and Kenneth Gainwell or Jalen Warren and Kenneth Gainwell half PPR I think both Steelers I mean Bruce Hall is gonna what has he done that warrants any consideration
Starting point is 00:22:24 in the last month that you feel comfortable I'm doing this in a league where I have these exact choices in our podcast final I'm starting both Steelers running backs over Bresol. But you look at what these two guys have done.
Starting point is 00:22:37 Basically, it's been 12.4 PPR points or more for Jalen Warren. I think it's four of his last five games. And Gainwell has got five catches or more, especially if it's PPR, five catches or more. In five of his last six games, in three of those, he's been 100 total yards or more. And now you're taking D.K. Meckoff off the field. I would do that. And plus, you don't have to worry about if the Steelers get to the goal line, who do they give the ball to you've got both of them unless they give it so uh what do they did
Starting point is 00:23:08 a tush push with like a tight end or something didn't they i don't remember maybe i'm thinking of a different team they gave john to smith some carries last week i think that honestly the only concern i have is that if the ravens lose uh saturday night do the stealers start to pull guys off the field at some point during the game yeah it could happen i i would have to completely agree with jim i will say there have been some weird pre-shaul breakouts at the end of seasons over the last couple years, 2023 comes to mind where he's just like
Starting point is 00:23:33 the best running back in fantasy out of nowhere the jet just kind of rode him into the ground but it doesn't feel like we're trending toward that direction this year with Brady Cook a quarterback, Patriots run
Starting point is 00:23:42 defense just doesn't feel great. Patriots run defense has actually not been good lately. It's been worse, but like not against a Brady Cook offense whether it's so one dimensional and nobody cares at all
Starting point is 00:23:52 about the past game. All right, this is D in a PPR league with a half a point half a point per yard rank these guys. Nico Collins, Mike Evans, Drake London, Alec Pierce, and Bucky Irving, half a point per yard. Nico Evans, London, Pierce, Irving.
Starting point is 00:24:15 I would go, Evans, Nico Irving, London. Yeah, I like that. I probably have Nico first than Evans, but as far as like the last part of it, I agree. I just, yeah, yeah, I didn't really like what I saw from, from Cousins in London. I do think there's been some leakiness to that Rams past defense, though. Yeah, for sure. If he was 100% healthy, it'd be London by and mile. Yeah, right, right.
Starting point is 00:24:44 Okay. Well, even if he's under healthy, London with Pennix versus London with Cousins is a different breed to me. I just watched last week. It just, we talked about this on Beyond the Box Corps on Monday, Adam. It's just, Cousins is not the quarterback for London skill set at all, in my opinion. Okay. from Marco I have three tight ends
Starting point is 00:25:01 I need to start one Hunter Henry Dalton Schultz or Taysam Hill Shultz Shultz easy for you I think I'm just starting Taysom Hill
Starting point is 00:25:11 and going for it and having fun Yeah he has upside None of them have I don't find upside With the other two Oh Maybe Schultz
Starting point is 00:25:17 A luck his way Into a touchdown Other than that He's doing nothing He scored in two of his last two games And I know I know He's been so consistent
Starting point is 00:25:24 Not only that He had a touchdown Against the Chiefs What is he done Outside of the score? shultz well this ppr is an 11.1 ppr points of more than six of his last eight games he's underrated away the touchdowns i'm saying what is he done he's been 11.1 ppr points or more and six of his last eight games with only two touchdowns over that stretch yeah you're underrating
Starting point is 00:25:40 dalton sholts i'm underating shultz you can go with shultz it's fine all right i need a why i'm i'm with you on taseem that i think he could be great yeah he could have fun he could help you really win but there's also the scenario of the running production is probably going to be limited because the Titans are really good against the run. True. And it's not like he's been super involved in the passing game. That being said, last week was the first game
Starting point is 00:26:04 with their whole running back cord depleted and they just lost their number two receiver. Yeah. Yeah. All right. I'm too nervous to start Taysam Hill, but it's risky. It's got fun upside potential. I will start Tazam Hill in one league if
Starting point is 00:26:21 George Kittle is active. If George Kittle is out, I'm going to play Tanges. Oh. Oh, okay, I see. I need a wide receiver two and a flex out of these four. Michael Wilson, Michael Carter, Devante Smith, Wondell Robinson. You need how many? I'm sorry?
Starting point is 00:26:41 We need two of these four. Michael Wilson, Michael Carter, Devante Smith, Wondell Robinson. You are or no? I don't know. Is Harrison back to being out? I saw he was back on the injury report. No, I think he's just going to be on the injury report the rest of the season. Okay.
Starting point is 00:26:53 I would go Wilson and Wando. And who were the other two? Michael Carter and Devante Smith. Yeah, wow, you're very low on Smith. I mean, the bill's past events has been good, the last few, however many games. Plus, the weather could be awful. And the weather could be awful. You're right.
Starting point is 00:27:11 And I hate betting on those types of games. Okay, I'm good with that. I think Wando will be surprisingly good this week for fantasy. We talked about on Beyond the Box score. Okay. He's averaging 15.8 ppr points per game on the road. Wondo. That's such a fluke, though.
Starting point is 00:27:26 It is because it was the Cowboys game and the Detroit game with Winston and Russell. But there is so much buzz this week around like DART not liking in the post game having comments about the game plan and Kafka. I just think they're going to come out pass first this game. From Sean, four point. By the way, we really need a loss, man. We really need a loss.
Starting point is 00:27:45 I've been in the spot a lot as a Giants fan. Don't sweat it. Don't sweat it. What do you mean don't sweat it? Listen, who turned out to be a better pick, Chase Young or Andrew Thomas? I don't care about that. I care about being able to trade. You're going to be able to trade.
Starting point is 00:27:57 You think there's only going to be one quarterback. This happens every year. People go Gaga for quarterbacks. Nobody trades for anybody but the first. No, that's not true. What do the Jaguars just do? In good classes, they may do it. This is not a good quarterback class.
Starting point is 00:28:09 What are the Jaguars just do? I don't. They traded out of, they did trade out of the Travis Hunter spot. That's a good point. But is there. They traded into the Travis Hunter. They traded into the Travis Hunter. No, I mean, yeah, I'm sorry.
Starting point is 00:28:20 Cleveland was able to go from two to five and get what I want. for the Giants. But I really feel like at one, it's the much better chance, especially with this class is like Mendoza, nothing. But you also, if you stay at two,
Starting point is 00:28:30 you get the best player non-quarterback, which is not a bad place to be there. I don't want that. I want to trade it back. We have so many holes. It's going to take so long to get this team good if we don't pick up picks and stuff. All right,
Starting point is 00:28:40 let's fire away here on these e-bails from Sean. There's just no, the game by winning. The problem is there's nothing to gain by winning. I mean, I'm like, I'm here. I'm trying to read the email. I think you guys next year are going to be like the,
Starting point is 00:28:51 Not as good, but Patriots, Bears. Come on, Jamie. New coach with the young quarterback. Come on, Jamie. Don't put that in, out. You know you don't believe that. You're just trying to rile us up. No, I'm serious.
Starting point is 00:29:03 I know you don't. I thought the Patriots is going to make the playoffs this year. You can go back to our. I know. I believe that you thought the Patriots are going to play. Because of this situation, get the right coach. The Giants are the next Patriots or Bears. That I don't believe.
Starting point is 00:29:13 If you get the right coach, you're going to be fine. All right. I hope so. So from Sean, Drake Mayer. Go get him. Or Joe Burrow. Four point for passing. Who is it?
Starting point is 00:29:26 I'm sorry. Mayor Burrow. Burrow, yeah, for sure. Okay, from Roy, from Israel. He made the playoffs in all four leagues. Excellent. Okay, two championship games, though. If Travian Henderson is out,
Starting point is 00:29:39 would you start Brian Thomas, Tai J Spears, or Christian Watson? Watson. Watson. If Love plays. Oh. Ryan Thomas. I'm going BTJ. I'll go Watson if Love plays, I'll go, I go BTJ if Love is out.
Starting point is 00:29:55 I want in on, like this week, I want, there's a few past games I think I know I can count on. Jaguars are one of them. I don't know how we got here, but we are here. And that's, I want players in that, in that game. And from. Another example. Sorry. The Giants for next year.
Starting point is 00:30:09 Jaguars. No, again, Jamie, we can't be the Jaguars. Okay, first of all, are we going to get Liam, Liam, Leam Cohn, and Ben Johnson are not in this cycle. I guess you could say maybe Kubiak is that, but I don't feel that. confident about that. Oh, really? We're just pretty confident about that for Cam Ward. No, I just said it could be exciting for fantasy,
Starting point is 00:30:29 not for us making the playoffs and becoming the Patriots or the Bears of next year. All right, the Giants suck. Who cares? Let's go. Next question. Pick two. I'm trying to read these questions.
Starting point is 00:30:39 Wondale, McMillan, Marks, Brian Thomas, Jr. Pick one? Pick two. Wondale, McMillan, Marks, Brian Thomas, Jr. Wandale. and B.TJ for me. Okay, Matthew says, my favorite gag of the week is the game of the week song.
Starting point is 00:30:59 If it inspired us to create a fantasy game of the week contest where I pick one game each week and we all pick who we think will win. I use the CBS projections and pick the closest matchup. Has us rooting for and against other teams each week. We tossed in an extra $30 and the top three pickers cash out at the end. I'm singing in my head when I'm singing in my head when I make the pitch
Starting point is 00:31:19 pick each week. Is that cool? Yeah. That is a very cool setup. I like that a lot. May steal that. Yeah. It's occurred to me,
Starting point is 00:31:26 I think just because we're in so many leagues that I don't have enough fun with our fantasy leagues. We don't do anything different. Different, yeah. What I really want to do. I think when you take over
Starting point is 00:31:35 the Superflex league next year, you can do it. What I really want to do. The Super Flex team that I'm about to win. Is that the one we're talking about? I want to stop. I'm not, I'm not,
Starting point is 00:31:43 I'm not, I'm not, does not busting your balls at all. I cannot believe you lost in the big burger league. Your team was so stacked. I know. It is incredible. It just shows how fan... I had three leagues like that, man. And I'm not the only one. We talked about a lot this week on BTB.
Starting point is 00:31:56 Like, there were a lot of one seeds that lost this past week in the semis. It was a weird fantasy week. It was. But yeah, I can't believe that team didn't win at all. What I can't believe more is that Adam's such a bad commissioner that isn't reward any of the pot for first and points. What I want to do is eliminate matchups in the playoffs. Because if you have six teams made the playoffs, you have two matchups each week. And you just have the two.
Starting point is 00:32:16 two highest scoring teams advance each week. There's just, yeah, let's get rid of matchups. Just remind me before the season. Or at least, but also reward for points, man. You got a reward for points. It's not enough money to do that. There's not enough. It's a percentage.
Starting point is 00:32:30 It's out of respect. It's a principal thing. You reward the team that was the best team and didn't get screwed by the playoff bad luck. That's part of like, fan, like, I just, I mean, my league, my home league is like a 50% of the pot goes to that. First and second. It's too much.
Starting point is 00:32:43 We believe, we really believe in, like, we're not just going to give all the money to the luck of the playoffs great great great great stuff very inspiring or a two week matchup in the playoffs that's another option next question here's the next question it's from matt uh superflex sam darnold bryce young or malik willis uh uh uh uh darnold d'arnold disgusting but darnald from devon uh dalton schultzer taysam hill they did that already Yeah. And Nico Collins or Tetero McMillan with 40-yard bonuses.
Starting point is 00:33:22 Nico. And he says, I'm facing Bijon Robinson in three matchups. What could go wrong? Bejohn v. the Rams. It's not a lot of them. I can go wrong. Just look what Jemir Gibbs just did. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:32 Didn't I tell you, did I say on Friday show that I felt like Gibbs could have a bad game? Do you know who outscored Gibbs? On Thursday. On Thursday, Wednesday show, Wednesday show. Yeah, the Friday show. I said on Friday that Philip Rivers was. go for 277 and two against the 49ers. There was a huge blowout in one of my leagues a few months ago where somebody traded
Starting point is 00:33:54 a guy who had no running backs and had a lot of receivers, traded George Pickin straight up for Jacorri, Bill Crossgame Marit. And it was like at the time where like he was really starting to struggle Merritt. And it was like a joke and like whatever. This guy made it to the finals. Wow. His running backs are so bad. He still has to start Bill.
Starting point is 00:34:12 And now he gets that. And like Bill has outscored Gibbs in the fantasy playoffs. Bill has out, like he's going to outscore like half the running, everyone with five running backs. And like, it just goes to show, I think it was a great. I sent this to the league last night. It just goes to show like vetoes, unless there's collusion, I don't really believe in vetoes because we cannot predict what's going to happen. Would you rather Bill or George Pickens at the time it was ridiculous to even consider now the way things have played out? You'd rather Bill.
Starting point is 00:34:39 Bill won you. You're like, Bill might win this guy this league. Yeah, it's ironic for sure. This is how it goes a lot more than people realize. Time for some fantasy cops, week 17 edition. This is from Justin from a city near Scranton. I am in the championship of a 12-team league. The commissioner, who is a close friend of mine,
Starting point is 00:34:59 messaged me a few days ago and said that we are short in payouts for the winner and the runner-up due to one member of the league going AWOL. No one can contact him, and we do not have his league fee. So the commissioner suggested that me and the other member who are in the championship come to an agreement on how we are going to reconcile being short on payouts.
Starting point is 00:35:20 I said this was ridiculous and that we are being penalized for making the championship game as everyone else gets to slide by. He thinks I'm being ridiculous and doesn't want to go back and collect extra money from the rest of the league
Starting point is 00:35:30 to cover the missing members dues. Please tell me I'm not crazy and give me a ruling. Well, you deaf, the second idea is just beyond. Yeah, right. Beyond absurd. You are never collecting the money
Starting point is 00:35:42 from the rest of the league to make up for this person. That's crazy, but these leagues just like, I don't get them. Like, is it a friends league? Is it an league of online people you met online? Like, how do we get to this point of somebody going AWOL? This can't happen in a friend group, right? This has to be.
Starting point is 00:35:57 I think it is. I'm pretty sure it is. Well, if it's a friend group, that's why, like, because people are saying in the comments, like, you've got to collect dues up front. I never collect dues up front in my home league because I trust the people. They're my friends. Yeah. And nobody screwed me over yet.
Starting point is 00:36:08 But like, it seems like, it's just, it's very interesting. Like, I guess this friend just, it's such a weird. So he blew up the friendship over $150 or like a, you know, a league due for one year. I'm never one to say like fantasy leagues or ruined friendships. If somebody's not going to pay, like that's, yeah, that's a questionable friend. That's it. No, a questionable friend. If you join and you quit for whatever reason, there's too much time, you didn't like it,
Starting point is 00:36:32 whatever, you still got to pay. Like, if you agree to join, you got to pay. So that's not the issue here, right? So we all agree on that. You just take out whatever the entry fee is and you just split the pot differently. Yeah. Or the only other option is you take it out of next year's pot. So everyone equally gets penalized for it.
Starting point is 00:36:51 No, you got screwed. I mean, it is what it is. You're still winning money. I don't understand what the... But none of us think the commissioner should pay for this guy. No, no, no. The commissioner does not have to cover this. Okay.
Starting point is 00:37:03 Gotta be honest with you. We didn't have a lot of fantasy cops this week. I answered some of them privately. But this one is from Brett. Brett sent this Sunday, December 21st. Okay. during week 16. He says,
Starting point is 00:37:14 I'm currently playing for fifth place consolation. This is definitely my last week. I saw that the Pittsburgh DST was available
Starting point is 00:37:22 and had a prime matchup in week 17 against the Browns. I dropped Dibo Samuel, who had already played and sucked
Starting point is 00:37:29 once again. Nobody wants Dibo. But I grabbed the DST just to mess with the championship options for DST. I'm the commissioner. So he's telling on himself
Starting point is 00:37:40 for screwing the people who were playing in the actual playoffs because he stole a good DST from them. That was it. I said, okay, that was pretty bad.
Starting point is 00:37:52 I'm glad you're confessing. Yeah, I just had that this week. In one of my leagues, somebody who got knocked out last week added someone to win the third place game, but we don't even pay out the third place game. So it's like really frustrating. I'm thinking about texting the commission.
Starting point is 00:38:07 Can you force drop this place in case I want to use that player? The only way that people, out of the championship game should be allowed to make ad drops is if your consolation game is for money. Yeah. What if there's a last place punishment? That too.
Starting point is 00:38:22 If there's something that's on the line. No, but that's supposed to end at the regular season. I've seen people that, in fact, I just answered an email about this exact. They have a last place punishment. Someone's making transactions.
Starting point is 00:38:33 I said, that's fine. You know, if you're going to have something on the line. If there's something on the line, that is important, yes. In the case of Dan's situation where they're just playing a game for fun, yeah there should not be add drops a lot yeah i agree dan come on man that's you're the commissioner in that league no my friend is the commissioner i'm in the finals in that league and i might he
Starting point is 00:38:51 it's dk so i don't really care and i'm not going to play this player but if it was somebody i wanted i would definitely be like drop this player yeah that's bad it's bad commission i think you should you should go on some diatri about how bad of a commissioner he is just like you no i i save those for you that's good thank you so much all right that's fantasy cops we got apple podcast questions spotify youtube when we come back after this I'm Fantasy Football Today. So should we do, let's do a big thank you. Dan, give a heartfelt thank you to our audience first.
Starting point is 00:39:20 No, we're doing one next week. I'm not sure we're doing a mailbag next week. Yeah, we are. Why not? I'm on vacation. I'm out of town. No, you're not. We've got to do a mailbag next week.
Starting point is 00:39:30 One more next week, it's going to be wide open. Ask us for everyone. That's what I mean. Yeah, it's going to be a fun one. Those are the ones I hope. Let's do one more. We can record it another time. It doesn't have to eat Friday.
Starting point is 00:39:40 There's no game. Yeah, okay. Maybe we'll do that. do it a different time so I can go out to lunch or something good yeah yeah uh all right uh so question on apple podcast from carlito's way brown standard scoring jacobi brisette or brock purdy purdy yeah it's got to be purdy same standard scoring two running backs one flex Josh Jacobs, Brice Hall,
Starting point is 00:40:08 Zach Charbonnet, Dylan Samson, and then A.J. Brown is going to be your flex. Yeah, AJ Brown for sure. That's obvious. Maybe Jacobs. What's the format?
Starting point is 00:40:22 Standard scoring. Standards, Jacob. Two running backs, though. So it's Jacobs, Bruce Hall, Zach Charbonnet, Dylan, Sampson. If it's standard,
Starting point is 00:40:30 I'm going to go Charbonnet. Touchdown potential is too high for him. It's Charbonnet just because there's nothing to look forward to a breeze hall and dylan samson may not even play i think samson will play but i don't want to trust samson in anything yeah ppr okay uh question from big spoon championship game ppr pick two terry mcclorin bucky irving givante williams sorry and tetarole macmillan i mean this so what do you want from about that i would have said
Starting point is 00:41:05 This is really bad job. I also would have said the third. No, I would have, I would not have started McLauron. Oh, yeah, you would have done whatever's. Okay, yeah. I would have started Giovante and probably Bucky Irving. I was pretty much out on the commanders guys,
Starting point is 00:41:19 which sort of kind of worked, but not really. I mean, Debo had a solid game. Javante would have a huge game if you didn't get hurt. Yeah. Let me see if I have any more. I don't think I do. That's it.
Starting point is 00:41:35 from Apple Podcasts. I don't have much from Spotify either. I have to check my phone. It's weird how like the way this fantasy season ended, a lot of the players that carried us there are now just like total disappointments, pick-ins, Devante Williams, like the list goes on at Bucca, like, and the guys who are coming up are just not, we're just guys who disappointed us during the year. It's really, it's an odd way to end the season, it feels like there's still obviously
Starting point is 00:41:57 the stalwart. I would say Puka was at this point. What did you say? Why'd you say Puka was a disappointment? No, Eg Buka, I said. Oh, Ibuka, sorry. Yeah, the players like that who like, broke out, carried us.
Starting point is 00:42:06 Jvante, Bucca, those players. Okay. I think you still might be saying the G in there. It's just a Buka. Oh, I actually did think it was like Buka until you just said that. I told you this already. I have really bad pronunciation issues with player names. Well, the G is in red, so he can't see it.
Starting point is 00:42:20 Yeah, exactly. George Kittle will likely be a game time decision, which is the worst possible scenario, the worst. Okay, so Spotify questions. That's game Sunday night. by the way. That's why I said it's the worst. I think Dan's toothpick finally figured out why I haven't watched Rocky yet. The reason Dan dislikes Rocky is more of the stain for Philly for stealing his idea.
Starting point is 00:42:44 Dan put steak, cheese and onions on a hoagie first, called it Danny Steak and Cheese. That's great. All right, the questions from Spotify. I have Drake May and Lamar Jackson. Should I drop Lamar Jackson for Trevor Lawrence? Yes, you definitely should. I did that in a guillotine league. And then who would you start, Lawrence or May?
Starting point is 00:43:04 Lawrence. Lawrence is the number one quarterback if I were doing rankings this week for me. Wow. Okay. Love him this week. Standard scoring. Oh, I think I just answered some of this. No, I didn't. Purdy or Brissette? Purdy. Yeah, this one we did Jacobs Hall, Samson, Charbonnet. Okay. And then Brenton Strange or Tyler Warren? Strange.
Starting point is 00:43:31 Yeah, strange. Okay. That's it for Spotify. So we'll finish off. I'm playing Dave in the finals of a league, by the way. First time I've ever had that. I'm excited for that. Playing what? Dave in the finals of the league of a league, his auction league.
Starting point is 00:43:43 Very nice. You're having a great year. Good for you, man. I am having a great year, but it's also disappointing because my biggest stake leagues, I got knocked down in the semis. Let's take a look at something real quick before we get into, before we get into the, sorry, the YouTube comments to end the show. What am I looking for?
Starting point is 00:44:01 Here we go. Share screen. Okay. let's take a look at this matchup between Dave Richard and Jamie Eisenberg in the podcast
Starting point is 00:44:11 What's this league? Whoa, Jamie is a heavy underdog I don't know We've got a lot of good fun FFT in matchups this week Dave versus Jamie
Starting point is 00:44:20 Mevers Dave Mevers Jack We uh We went into the championship game FFT2 I figured you weren't in any Well, well do you're in the finals
Starting point is 00:44:29 The FFT league Oh the main FFT league Yeah You made it in that one? I did. Interesting. Yeah, horrible team. All right, Jamie's got Jordan Love
Starting point is 00:44:42 and if he doesn't play, you've got Malik Willis. All right, you're in good shape. You do have Bijan, Jalen Warren, and Kenneth Gainwell. You have Darren Waller at tight end. You know, that'll be either Taysam Hill or Tongass. Okay. Waller, Pickens killed him
Starting point is 00:44:56 and said, Jefferson. What a disappointment all year. Started Jefferson and Pickens. Dave started. What were your options over, Jefferson? Anything real or not. really. Matt Collins was the only one.
Starting point is 00:45:05 You know where you might win? You might win with DST. You got the Patriots and he has the bucks. That might be your ticket to getting back in. I wouldn't be surprised if Love has a good game. And I do think that Bijon will play well and the Steelers running. And I don't think JSN's going to do that great for him against Carolina. I'll say that.
Starting point is 00:45:21 Oh, why? I'm zero concerned about that. I do not think that's going to be a high scoring game at all. I do like the fact that that burden is back to impact DJ more a little bit. I don't think Tyler Warren will have a great game. Yeah, no. I mean, listen, we have a long way to go, but he's starting. Is that H.N. versus Tampa, that's not great.
Starting point is 00:45:41 No, H.N. does great against everyone, but, like, that's not. As someone who's starting H.N., one thing that concerns me a little bit is, I don't know what Quinn Ewer's tendencies are. And he got three targets last week. I feel, you know, if two over the quarterback, I could feel like he'd get five or more catches. I have no idea how many targets he's going to get. So, by the way, what you're looking at here is a 14-team league.
Starting point is 00:46:02 if you're wondering why are these guys starting, you know, play quorum. But these are good lineups for a 12-team league. Go to my matchup versus Dave, Adam. I'm not in the league. Oh, wait. You're too scared to play in the auction league. I forgot.
Starting point is 00:46:14 Yes, exactly right. He used to have a legitimate excuse because we used to do the auction live. Now he has no more excuses. It's unbelievable. It's like, Adam, why won't you play in the auction league? I would love to. I just don't want to play in any more leagues. I respect that.
Starting point is 00:46:27 Honestly, with how many we've got going right now, I respect that. Yeah, thank you. I don't respect much for me. Okay, let's get to the YouTube comments. YouTube comments to finish the show. I got a big issue today, too, Adam. I'm real nervous. I'm playing my brother after this in tennis.
Starting point is 00:46:40 Oh. I tell you about the time when he almost beat me recently. Yeah, because you were getting a gas. I was 5, 3, and then I won 4 straight to go 7.5. Playing him today, he continues to take lessons. He's playing all the time. I haven't picked up brackets his last played him. And I just had like 6,000 grams of sugar over the last two and a half days.
Starting point is 00:46:58 And I feel totally in terrible shape. but it's going to be bad. Yeah, man. I think you're going to... Is he going to get his first set ever today? You might beat you. I've officially been moved up to a 3-5, so I'm coming forward. Oh, you're at 3-5 now?
Starting point is 00:47:11 I am. Do you feel confident you're going to get a set off of me next year this coming in? Ask me in a few months. Okay. By the way, I think we're going to play before the summer. I know. I'll come out to Jersey. That's not going to be the first time we play.
Starting point is 00:47:24 We got a lot of matches we have to play. Me and you, a couple just warm-ups. Me, you versus my brother, singles, has to happen. He really wants. He desperately wants that. He desperately wants that back. He's disrespected me big time on the live stream, big time. He feels disrespected by me because I told him that I think you would beat him, which he did not like at all. He just, I'll be honest, he did, first of all, I wanted to clear up a few things. First of all, when you watch a tennis match from the angles we had, so he watched
Starting point is 00:47:50 the first match and the second match, it doesn't really show well for us. The first match we used our phone for a camera. The second match, we had a camera set up at the back right of a court, like at height of like me it was like a six foot height so it doesn't really you know what I mean like he feels like you're he doesn't respect your game he doesn't respect it because you played well in that side it's that you're starting to rip the ball he started to take advantage of points like let's get aggressive so we'll see but also he wants to do me and him versus you and your brother yeah which i definitely want to do that because that's the that's the most confident win for me all right tray Tucker or jaden read Tucker Jeff still says body cams for next year's match we do need
Starting point is 00:48:27 body cams. Oh my gosh. What does that mean? AJ Brown or Tyrone Tracy? Brown. Brown. Look at all these Homer Simpsons. Amazing. Yeah, now everyone's changed to Homer Simpson.
Starting point is 00:48:44 They get at their questions. If you guys want to laugh, this is only for the YouTubers. Look at this comment here from Silent Flow. So why do you guys like Bucky Over Walker? Now look three comments up at the typo he had. I can't see it. Oh, I can't even put it on the screen, but... I don't even...
Starting point is 00:49:05 Oh, I can find it. Oh, was it with an NFL? Yeah, yeah. It was a Bucky typo. Why do you like Bucky over Ken Walker? I think the matchup is probably just as good if not better for Bucky, because I don't think the Dolphus' run defense is playing very well right now, and I'm more confident that Bucky will get...
Starting point is 00:49:23 I'm confident that Bucky will get more touches than Walker. They're both going to potentially lose... those goal line opportunities. So I'm going to lean towards the player, I think, is better right now, which is still Bucky. I like Walker, actually, over Bucky. I just felt like Walker played, look the best I've seen him look in this past game against the Rams.
Starting point is 00:49:39 My guess is if you watch tape of the week and you're preparing as a coach for the next week, you look at it and you're like, our best snaps are when he was on the field. We have to find a way to get him a little bit more involved. That was the same case for the first Rams game, though, and then they went back to it never matters with them. It is weird, yeah. Taysome Hill or Brenton Strange. I'd go strange
Starting point is 00:49:59 Drake May or Matthew Stafford Stafford For me it's actually No because the game script's going to kill May Okay we can go Stafford Waddle or Michael Wilson Schultz or Strange Wilson and Shultz
Starting point is 00:50:15 Wilson and Strange for me Dan you should wear the nose strips for the match today You know I really should I bet I'd be better with those nose strips I'll probably wear them I'll probably wear them for our match this year. He says, Dan's toothpicks says,
Starting point is 00:50:30 Dan, wear those nose strips today for the match. And later on, me and you will celebrate the win with a sandwich you invented. Grilled Dan sounds good. Cheese and bacon grilled on two slices of bread. As I said, back in 2011, when not a lot of people were doing it, I honestly do feel like I invented the chicken cutlet sandwich
Starting point is 00:50:46 with add the prosciutto to it. A lot of people weren't doing it at the time. Now everyone, they have prosciutto on it. But I do feel strongly about it. All right, Drake London, Jacobi Myers, RICO Dowdell, Tetero McMillan, Ramandre Stevenson, start three. Drake London, Jacobi Myers, RICO, T-Mack, Stevenson.
Starting point is 00:51:05 Stevenson, for sure, if there's no Henderson. And then I'd go London and Jacoby. Yeah, just, I'm going with the receivers and not Tetral-McMillan. Jacobi Myers, Drake London, Wondale Robinson, Michael Wilson, pick two. Wondale Wilson Yep That's so funny
Starting point is 00:51:26 I was going to go with the other two Oh really Oh you hate Wondo I like Wondell this week Yeah I don't know They have to They're not going to let Dargo down like this With these like 33 yard games
Starting point is 00:51:38 Dude they don't have Andrew Thomas You know what that means I know but it's the Raiders It's I glad you said that They're not that bad Against quarterbacks There's something like 20th 19th they're not good
Starting point is 00:51:51 I know, but like there were times this year where it didn't matter what he matched up against Dart had big games against the Eagles, the Broncos, like I just did Chargers. That was when they were designing runs for him though. Drake May or Trevor Lawrence.
Starting point is 00:52:04 He said they called two design runs for him last week in the Red Zone. Lawrence. Lawrence is my number one QB this week. Yeah, I was wondering about this too. Since when did Dan grow to six feet? What do you mean? He said, the camera was like my height.
Starting point is 00:52:16 It was six feet. Oh, no, no, no, no. A little bit tall. than me oh tough one here fanning or pits pits fannin both close Caleb Williams or Tyler Shuck Caleb Williams Stafford or Lawrence
Starting point is 00:52:35 Lawrence Stafford Borough or Lawrence Borough Lawrence Waddle or Michael Wilson Wilson or Michael Wilson Wilson and Strange I think we've answered this in different ways
Starting point is 00:52:48 Adam just this is just you just I'm going to model i would go wilson and shultz how many more times you want to ask us is adam did i really ask you this already oh yeah it was different different person but yes okay uh alec pierce or parker wisconsin ppr parker uh i'd go pierce dan do you like dandre swift or kyle pitts as a flex is ppr i like pits regular i like swift um or standard i don't know why Not only did Jeff ask this question in the first show. He asked it now for Dan in this one.
Starting point is 00:53:25 Yeah, I know. He's curious. I wonder who he goes with, whose advice he goes with. Waddle or Myers, PPR? Waddle. Adam two times. Get the papers.
Starting point is 00:53:37 Get the papers. I think it's, is it get the papers, the papers. Yeah. What's that? What's that? He says. You really just said,
Starting point is 00:53:46 what's that? You're such a jerk. Honestly, I, that's amazing. I'm done with you. I'm done with you. done with you shnard what you don't know who john he can not say you love a movie and say it's better than another movie and not know one of the best lines from the movie yes no i'm not i'm not i'm not i don't
Starting point is 00:54:00 know i'm not jimmy two times jimmy two times my bad that's a memory issue that's on me that has nothing to do with liking movies or not that's disgraceful that you don't know that said to get the papers the paper you don't know that and you're willing to say that that movie's better than than rocky that's just unbelievable you have to understand something me liking a movie more than another movie isn't being fan-boying. Oh, I've watched it a thousand times. I could re-watch it a thousand times. Like, I'd rather watch a new awesome TV show

Starting point is 00:57:23 Well, I think it's better than seven. No. Well, I think it's a top 25 movies. You can't say that. I can say that. I like movies. It's my opinion, first of all, right? I'm not saying I'm right and there is such a thing as a top 20.
Starting point is 00:57:37 It's an uninformed opinion. What? It's an uninformed opinion. You haven't seen the other movie. To some extent, right? But like, it's like saying, like, I've told you this before. You can guess on some things, right?
Starting point is 00:57:49 Like, I know some movies are better than others. Like, let me name a bad movie. What's a bad movie? G, G. G, G, G, G, G, G. Jennifer Lopez back in the day, Gigi, right? Gile, Gile, okay. I know that something is better than Gile, right?
Starting point is 00:58:02 I don't have to see Gile to know that. What's one of the worst movies you've ever seen? What's the worst movie we've ever seen? Yeah, there's one that comes to mind. Oh, man, what a horrible movie. I'm trying to think if I can remember what one of the worst movies I've ever seen I remember my parents taking me to a movie called Miami Rhapsody with Antonio Benderas and Sarah Jessica Parker
Starting point is 00:58:22 when I was a kid. That movie I hated. No, your worst movie is gravity. I hated gravity. I hated Gosford Park. Oh my gosh. It was just like this movie that was supposed to make people like me feel stupid or something. I hated that movie.
Starting point is 00:58:37 What a dreadful movie, Gosford Park was. I wish I could think of this. I don't know, like the worst movie, like a movie I just was totally bored of or walked out of. Jamie, what do you got? Oh, Anchorman, too, I walked out of, I think. Never saw that. Horrible.
Starting point is 00:58:51 What do you got, Jamie? Worst movie? It's a tough question. Like, that second nudge out was terrible. I didn't like that. That's up there. I don't remember. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:59:02 I'm trying to say, this is a great question. Yeah, thank you. Like your contribution to the show. Have a great weekend, everybody. Good luck. Let's win a championship. See ya. Paramount Podcasts.
