Josh could get in an airplane, fly straight from Jacksonville to Denver. I still think he's the better quarterback. This is the playoffs. I mean, you don't have like your picks written out. I kind of do. You should have a head-to-head against each person, just on principle. I've never before seen anything like it. History has been made on backdoor cover.

White Steve. Gentlemen. I take my glasses off. Steve. Mixed emotions. So I could look you in the eye. I. Tough. Tell us about your emotions.

Head to head with Chris. One head to head with making bullshit loss. Cam Little misses a field goal for the first time this year. Oh, you think it was about Cam Little? Yeah. And the bills beat me by a half point. Damn, Steve. Well, was that all of them?

Well, Greg Roman forgot to have an offensive game plan. You're talking about Cam Little. you know the OC that I was betting on just didn't come to work evidently I'm one tackle away yeah now he doesn't have a job right total hitting all right you don't hear me bitching and moaning you weren't one tackle away bullshit and you did it continue to pour on yeah with like the pick six at the end none of that would have happened no everything was about to be shut down that was a blood bath I'm surprised you're still you were still awake watching that make hey lock of the year Monday night

Monday night game shouldn't have been eligible So I Steve make I think sometimes True I think sometimes The key is knowing when it's the lock of the year And just going all in on it

And I chickened out like a motherfucker I should have put My house on Houston Second half Like literally the house That my kids sleep in It was so obvious to me And I only put like a unit on it

But it was a blood bath all they had to do was score one more time and it was fucking over. They might not even had to like kick a field goal. No, I know. It was not scoring. No, they were not. That was, uh, that was damn impressive, man. Because it felt, I don't want to say last hurrah deal, but like in Pittsburgh, like you,

you knew it was their one shot. They felt fortunate that they got the shot because they came back and beat Baltimore in that crazy game. And it was like, all right, we're here. again, could this be the time it's different? And we actually win. Like it was big. And we were in the Houston side of the field. I tried FaceTime and Chris so we could watch some D-line individual. I mean, that group, I mean, Will Anderson never changes. Like on the interview with Scott after the game, he comes to the set and he still has to look like I want to play 12 more quarters. And watching

them, that's what I like they don't, they're so young and together. And, into it. CJ Stroud could throw seven interceptions. They don't care. It's like, all right, we got four more downs. We get four more sex. Let's go out there. Like it's it's amazing. The energy, the togetherness, the, the they don't give a fuck about anything. They want to go out and play fucking defense. And it's unbelievable to watch. They take pride in in whatever the situation is. You can tell when you watch the defense that they they almost salivate at the opportunity to take the field after a sudden change. The way that they played after sudden changes,

it was like they tackled harder top down. The rushers were faster. It was, you know, it's just a well-coached group. Burke, fucking stud doesn't really have to do much as far as blitzing or anything like that. And,

and Demico's got a culture. So, so yeah, if fucking CJ Stroud wasn't playing hacky sack, they might have scored 40 fucking points, dude. anyways do you know who i find extremely handsome jesus who

denille hunter what the fuck where do we go from here i don't know pull up a picture of denial hunter maybe really yeah you're looking at the next i don't know brad pit you think he's the next brad pit potentially nice way not to choose idris elba edris

whatever it is handsome handsome guy. Stringer bell. You know, I saw some people this week saying Justin Herbert gets a pass because he's handsome. He ain't fucking handsome. If he didn't play quarterback in the NFL, I'm just telling you. Good hair.

Looks like an IT professional. Hair, though. He's 5-7. No, I mean, no disrespect. The guy's doing well. But, you know, on the, on the top. He's no DeNeal Hunter. He's no DeNeill Hunter.

Whatever the fuck that is. Oh, come on, dude. I don't, dude, you know, I can only see the bottom 10 and the, in the top 10%. That's how my straightness is set up is, I can see, you know, when Brad Pitt walks by, I'm like, yeah, it's fucking Brad Pitt. That's a good looking dude. Yeah. And when, like, Beetlejuice, God rest his soul walks by, you're like, it's an ugly motherfucker.

But the in between 80, I don't know. Beal Juice died? I think he's dead. Yeah. Yeah, I think so. I rest his little soul. God rest his little soul. Beetlejuice is a lot?

Hank's, dead. Hank is definitely deceased. Michael Keaton is alive who played beetle juices. No, I'm talking about beetle juice.

Come on, guys. He said Michael Keaton is alive. Come on, Reed. Mike, Reed, how old are you? 32. Too old than I don't know

who beetle juice. I follow beetle juice on socials and... You understand the top 10% bottom 10%. Yeah, the only thing you're missing here is that to Neil Hunter's top 10%

I just didn't know I didn't know that's why I leave it to a guy that sees the the whole 100%. That's me. Just sliding up and down the scale. I'm pretty sure we asked for him too to come up with Will and he's like

nah, I don't want to do that. I don't want any of that. I'm going to hook up with a bunch of beautiful women. Or making. Come on, man. Hey, be careful. Last time you did that, you shot yourself.

Beetle juice is alive. 40-day-I. Oh, man. Well, I'm glad he's okay. Man, am I fucking relieved, dude? Not every day. You know, this is... He's just hanging around.

Calves, what do we have? Calps tech. Do you want to do the, hey, I think the people should know. What happened last week? The standings. Yeah, I think they should. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. That's not right.

It don't matter, but that's not right. I think my record's right. I didn't go one and four player. I went three and two. I know you did. Three and two, I texted it out. All right, dog. Says one and four right there.

Well, you must have printed out as I was updating it. I mean, this system. Your fault. Yeah, my bad. I went one and four. Yeah. No doubt about that. Chris, four in one last week, 53 and 42.

What's his percentage at making? 55.8. And is that number one? Yep. All right. Oh, damn, dude. Shut it down. I would like to be a little bit better than that.

Well. I would like to be like 58 to 60. Yeah. What do they say? We all would. What do they say the real pros are? You have to be 56. Yeah.

I need a little bit better this week. Three and two will get me there. The headline, though, is, all right, keep going, Cubs. You have a first pick, so you want to keep going? Bitch, what about everybody else's record? They just said it, one and four for Steve, and you just said three and two. But we're not going through everybody else's overall records. 53-42 for Chris, Steve, 5142 and 2.

Oh, we're doing third place after first. 5141 and 3. Okay. A lot of ties, man. if you could just eliminate those ties. Hey, man. 11 and 9 is 20 and 10 is 30. We're a collective 30 over 500, I think, is the headline.

That's true. That's true. And I've seen some of these other podcasts the way that they, you know, stinky. Hate to be them. It ain't easy. It hate to be their listeners. Mm.

You know? Five and all in college football playoff. Having to probably suck dick for household items and stuff. Yeah. Steve does deserve a, I think we need to give Steve another win because last week you did say Indiana and Miami Monillon. Oh, he did. He did?

Yeah, Steve. Steve. I told you, but I told you, Steve, I texted you from the vacation. I said this is an Indiana spot. That was the Rose Bowl. Yeah, well, it's always an Indiana spot, no matter what game they're playing. It's getting a little out of control now, though. Okay.

I tied him into like six teasers. Yeah, I know, but the NFL teasers, I got them at like minus. minus a half point, minus one and a half. Teesgot's back for 2026? Oh, Teesgot is doing pro football, minor league football. Put them together, making teasers. Nice. But I can't wait until Miami loses.

Hey, Steve, what's going to happen? Cristobal. What's going to happen? Please. Do you know what Miami team we're going to get? Yeah. Are we going to get the team that played Ohio State? Or we're going to get the team that played Ole Miss.

Either one. Indiana clears. The team that played Ole Miss. Hey, here's one for you, Steve. You can use this on your TV shows. I think they're playing at home is going to hurt them. I agree. I agree.

The way that is. They're driving all over the show. He's not drunk, but they've got to go. They're my friends and family. Oh, they're over in Miami Gardens. Let me show out. Oh, you're in three hours. You're in Hia Leia.

You need to get to Hollywood. Exactly. Yeah. Florida. Whatever. Adventura. Oh, you're in Boca? Kyle's in Boca.

Good spot. Yeah. The game's in Bofa. All right. Macon, your pick. Nice job, read. No, I'm not sure who to pick. Yeah, no, I got you.

You know what I'm saying? Yeah, there we go. No, for serious. Played a Jeopardy, Threem. I've got two when I know they're going to get taken. I got Shoot, should I be smart? No, because I really...

I mean, you don't have like your picks written out I kind of do. You should have a head to head against each person just on principle this week. You got the first pick and the fucking thing, dude. Hold on. I know, it's just, you know, this is like having a bad script. Hold on.

Because... Roman? I'll take you behind the curtain here for a second. There's a total I like more than any other total. Mm-hmm. Oh, I know what it is, guaranteed. You do. Oh, I do.

And maybe I should take that now. Oh, just take it, Mr. Ziggy, Ziggy Marley. But. Zaggy Marley? I'm not going to do it because totals are hard. And. Why don't you tell us, just in case it hits and you don't pick it? I'll let you know when it gets picked.

Okay. And I want to root for this club, all right? With the first pick this week, the divisional round. The Denver Broncos. Go ahead. Say it. Second place team making selects the Denver Bronco. He's so fucking predicted.

Laying a point and a half against Buffalo. Uh-oh. Stevie boy. Uh-oh. One down, pal. One down. Let's ride. Minver.

Where my men at? Where my men out? That's why I wanted a live draft for a draft order this week. Let's try. That's right. Books back there in Charlottesville. Are we ready? We're ready.

So he wanted Memver, huh? Uh-huh. That's cool. I don't have to pick the bills right now. I'll take the Rams. That's smart. Smart guy, huh? Got a head on your shoulders. That's where the two are. Touch grass, Steve. TV guys rattled.

Wow. What an idiot. The podcast world. Man, I think you threw a pin. Yeah. damn call hembo maybe hembo can get you a pick nineers nineers you motherfucker I'll take my half point right there

relax and Steve and great question can I take two totals yes sick I'll take good question are you I don't know what to do prop wise oh I got one really

Oh, I got one. I'm going to take... I don't have to open that. The Patriots under 21 and a half. I'll be damn. Is Christian Gonzalez playing? We don't know. Do we know?

Not any of all know ball. He hasn't practiced either. Nico's out. I'm not counting on Nico. Nico's head hit that turf, flush. Man, you could see it immediately. probably felt like concrete. Christian Gonzalez.

Trending up according to a Parker Washington catching seven more balls. Yeah, that was cool. We got a live feed this week. Great effort. Which game? Did you like that live stream? Fucking awesome, dude.

Yeah. Dr. Fax, like, legitimately was going to, I don't know what he was going to do if the Jags won. That was like winning World War II. Honestly. I felt that. I felt it. Yeah, it was.

I was wondering if he could say Duval one more time. You think 80 years from now the Jags are going to take over the world again? That's good. Yeah. That's good. Chris's pick. Oh, Chris's pick some info that does need to be shared. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

He doesn't affect. He's got a mobile device. He can do his own research. Sam Darnold has been added to the injury report with an oblique injury and is questionable for Saturday's divisional round. against the 49ers. Yikes. Thank you for saying that.

Yep. Yep, you're welcome. Thank you so God much for saying that. Okay. Steve should feel pretty good. So how did the, you got to tell us the updated line. It doesn't matter, does it? I already got it in.

Well, yeah, he, yeah. That motherfucker Steve. Yeah. That MF, Calbs, because I was going to take Seattle to go against. Well, he saved you. Yes, correct. Save your bacon. Saved me.

Hurt you guys. Saved your bacon. I'll take the I think the Niners Hawks under. Calbs, I got to be honest with you. Can you feel it? You feel the tension in the air.

I'm not sure to pick. You feel of my plums. You're going to say this five times? He's in a fucking blender mentally right now, Steve. Hmm. It's got his little pointy condom hat on. Looks like you've got a little reservoir.

A bunch of scrambled eggs underneath it. Yeah, there's nothing nothing coming out of that head. Make, you ever had a concussion? I don't know. I don't think so. That's crazy. I've never really been in contact with anyone or anything.

You haven't hit your head on the new kitchen? That's too low. Oh, he's a kitchen joke. Kitchen's not too low. Although, I got some bad news about the induction range. Makes a real high-pitched shrill sound that the fellows can't fix now four times.

No way. We'll figure it out. Hey. Figure it out. Calves. How about two picks? You dick. I'm gonna go.

I'm, uh, all right, whatever. I don't care about. Okay. Here we go. Come on now. Uh-oh. There was an uh-oh there.

You had an uh-oh, didn't you? Give me the. Oh, for him. Yeah, yeah. Nothing new. No, no, no, no, no. No news. I'll take the New England Patriots.

Minus three points at home. against Houston. Cowboy breaks news and then a pick later, somebody takes the under involving the news and we're just all acting like it's business as usual. Dog, I got my phone with me for things just like that. I have an ESPN app. In fact, I got the same alert 30 seconds later.

30 seconds later. Yeah, but it took me longer than 30 seconds to make my pick. Okay. All right Why don't, hey, well, no, there's, there's my. I'm sorry, player? Nothing. Hey man, you ever heard the, the, the, fuck,

the old adage, control what you can control? Yeah, yeah, yeah. How about this one? Control the controllables. Yeah, that's a good one. Yeah. Hey, you ever heard about adversity? Oh, I got one.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. If you learn to use it right, it can buy you a ticket to a place you couldn't have gotten to any other way. Do it. Oh. Thank you. I like that. Yeah.

Are you up? Yeah, I'm up. Here's another one. Don't sweat the small stuff. You know what I'm saying? Here's another one. We all die one day. Bless it. All right. Let's see. How you doing, Steve? My man.

Plenty good picks out there. You should take the bears, man. Thinking about it. You should. Did you see the throw that Caleb made on fourth down? last week. Sure did. How many human beings can make that throw? Dozen.

Dozen? Yeah. I don't know about that. I'm not convinced as to who to pick at this point in the process. You know? Ten.

Pat's Texans under. Fuck. You bitch you. You bitch you. you you bit you thank you appreciate that now i know what you're going to say i don't want to put too much on that game do it i mean i'm taking the bills i'm taking the bills right now don't i know you guys don't want them i'll take the bills you could give fucking bo necks eight years what was that you could give bo necks an eight year by josh could fucking get in an airplane

Yeah. Suck it. I literally almost let that slip when I was like, hey, what? It's available. And you didn't take it. Yeah, I know that's what you were going to say. You were going to get karate chocked. Karate chocked.

Whatever, man. Sam, Sam, not the ram, is a horse. He'll be fine. All right. Hmm. I'm going to go Rams bears under 48. And a half. That's the right play, Steve.

You guys are just two peas in a pod. That's the right place, Steve. Oh, zag, zag, zag, zag. Zag, zag. It's cold. It's cold. It's going to be zero, you know? Zero degrees?

Yeah. Man, who gives a fuck? Matt Stafford? Who gives a fuck? Maddie Stafford. I've read the stats too. Los Angeles. So is the rest of the country?

Oh, so he's going to zag on not being able to throw a ball and cold. Well, it's not the cold. It's more the rain and the rain and the snow. And you hear about the gusts and everything, but. I wonder what that feels like. If you guys get a chance. Chris, I know you're might have some time on your hands

like when the kids are sleeping and everything. Go on YouTube and look up the 1980. Go ahead. Go on YouTube and look up the 1985 NSC Championship on CBS. Just watch the Open. It's Summerall voicing over Chicago's quest to get back to the Super Bowl.

They go through Dick Buckkiss, Walter Payton, George Hallis, and his voice is over the training montage from Rocky 4. Oh, man. It's unbelievable. And then you get Soldier's Field on AstroTurf. Hey, here's my Summerall. You ready?

No. Aikman. Irvin. Touchdown. Pretty good. Thanks. Yeah. Thanks.

Hey, a quick, an update, Ian Rappaport. Kyle Shanahan says Fred Warner won't be activated this week. Oh, Fred Warner? Oh, Fred Warner. Fred Warner. Is that really him climbing the world? Is that really him climbing the walls like Spider-Man? Did you see that video?

No, it is not. Unfortunately. If Fred Warner plays next, if they win this game, Fred Warner plays next week, who they might go. Oh, they're going. Chill, dog. Hey, man. Can you erase all your, your, your, your fuck up around the number 40 a little better,

like respectfully? Hey, who's the Seahawks kicker? Like, I got a dirty board. Myers. And what is the Jason Myers kicking total? Jason Myers. There we go. Hey man, this is my corner. You could step off. I don't even know where to find it anymore. One and a half is minus 155. I'll take one and a half please. No, no, no. Miner's one. Oh, what's the, wait, didn't he do like a minus 600 one of them? Yeah, it was, it was 740. I mean, these things are stupid anyway.

fact um let's see i will take you really got that fucking under in new england that's the one yeah i hate betting you don't think the winner's going to score 20 it's you know one i see 2320 in that game well i mean yeah and and if it's making he's probably going to end up you know, 2017. You know what I'm saying? Appreciate that. No, I mean. All right. Let's see.

Let's see. I hate doing this. God, I hate doing this. We decided whether we can take both sides of the same game or not. What's our cutoff on the money line? Like props? 130. Yeah, 130.

How about 133? I'll give, I'll allow, What? To take a team money line? No, no, no, like a prop. Oh, okay. 133 for a prop. Okay, I got you.

Yeah. I got you. Do you allow that as well? I don't give a fuck. All right. All right. I don't really do that stuff. Sincerely, who gives a fuck.

I don't need to this week, Christopher. All right. All right. All right. Give me the Houston Texans. Oh, I knew that was coming. I like it. I like it.

I couldn't not. I like it. It's just something I couldn't not. That's my favorite game this week. I could not. If I can be honest with you, though that's a loser for you. Yeah. I have both of them underline.

Okay. Now, the line probably moves when he can't is ruled out, which is going to bother me. But, you know, in the spirit of not tying, I'm probably going to buy a half point here and take home the W. Relax. Yeah. that's the way to do that.

That's the way you do it. Look at them yo-yo's. This fuck's up for two again. What? What? Oh, me? Yeah. Oh, shit.

On a lot of sides here. You want another total out there? What total you want out there? I'll take it for you. No, I can't tell you. Just so it's in play. A wild card is your remaining. That's all I got.

That's the way you do it. I'm going to do something. I'm going to do something. Do it. Chicago Bears. Good luck. Plus three and a half. At home.

It's the Rams. God, this could make my whole weekend go up and smoke. Isn't it fun? Like the first game of the week, I could be 0 and 2 or I could be 2 and 0. You know what I, you know what my picks have done? What? Showing a ton of resilience in the face of adversity.

Yeah. I tend to lose my first one or maybe my second one, you know? Yeah. And then we just keep plowing ahead, you know? God, I don't know. Every pick has a life and history of its own, all right? Yeah. So make the next one.

Am I up? It's my turn. Am I up? No, it's making. Oh, it's making. Oh, it is making. All right, relax. He's doing that whole rigumeral.

Hey, chill. So what do I need to do? You got a pick. Yeah, you need a wild car. When you come to the Super Bowl, we should take a ride out to Alcatraz. Okay. And then you should just leave him there. Correct.

Correct. The night tour is crazy. If you can do the night tour. Is there a night tour? Oh, yeah. Are these team totals a while? It's awesome. What time?

Uh, that sounds like a fun thing to do on some boomers. Yeah. It's. Real, real. We're going to have, we, we are right across the bay from Alcatraz. Yeah. Are you on fishermen's dwarf? Yeah, right next to.

We're at the marina. Yeah. Like Marina, Arlen Greenwood. What are the accommodations like? You are living. Yeah, really good. Better than New Orleans. At least I expected it to be.

New Orleans was great, but I expect better. What kind of animals are? Yeah, New Orleans for you was great. No, it wasn't. I had to fucking walk to the, some hotel in the middle of night. I had a roommate called Fax Collins, who not a lot of downtime.

No, a lot of scrolling. A lot of scrolling. Not a lot of down time. I love that set up. This one's better? Arguably. Wow. We get a menu yet?

What animals we got? Oh, no, not yet. I guess, yeah. I wonder what, what, I bet a lot of seafood. fresh caught. Fax will catch you some. Damn right. Yeah. How do we get there? Well, there's a plane. You're going to fly.

You're going to have to take a commercial flight. And then you're going to take a driverless car because they got those out there. A Waymo or something? Waymos. It's crazy. I am finding a fucking robot and I'm going to beat the shit on the thing. I know there's some robots running around in San Francisco. Call it a hate crime, whatever you want.

I'm going to beat the shit out of that thing. The complete Alcatraz tour, two and a half hours available Tuesday through Saturday, 5.55 p.m., 6.30 p.m. and 705 p.m. Oh, yeah, that might be what I'm doing Tuesday night. November 3rd through March 20th. November 3rd through March. Pick your time with it. Not important. Hey, go ahead and pick. Yeah, you fuck. Seriously, half this podcast is

I saw a guy giving a TED talking how many months you have left in your life and you spend them spend all these months in the car spend months eating spend months scrolling spend a lot of months waiting for you to fucking pick no shit

I'm not sure who to pick is what's the problem this is a tough time of the year dude this is just not an easy time of the year we just have to we have to persist My picks have faced a strains of adversity. That's a good face, too. They've done that.

That's a good face, Steve. Good face, Steve. Oh, my God. I'm currently looking at a game log, Steve. If you want to relax for two seconds, I'll be right with you. You know what a game log? It's been there for. for weeks.

Can I pick? No. I know what I want. I'm picking. All right. I don't know what to do. Remember when he said I'm in a blender? Yeah.

Truly, truly in a blender right now. All right, fine. Puka Nakua under 98.5 receiving yards. Chris, you're up. That's right. I'm going to take a second, too. What do you guys think about that? I don't.

I don't know. don't have any feelings about it either. I don't think about it at all. I don't think about it at all. All right, my team. I'll take the under in Denver. Got to be a walker. Oh, fuck.

All right, hold on a second. Oh, dude, give you some help. That's rich. Can I take back that puka pick? Nope. Nope. You like that pig? You like that pick?

That's what I'm looking for, Tamman. Hell yeah. What's really bothering me is that Chicago pick. That's going to be the right pick, though. Tamman got extra pair of monarchs for Super Bowl week. They're shipping in soon, Steve. There we go, buddy. So I haven't done a team total.

Got a little in-and-out burgers, fishermen's wharf, will be all right. You'll be all right. Had yourself a little something, Chris. I did. I will, I will. But I'm not going to. No, I don't hedge. I don't try to tie.

Not a giant pussy. I just, I just try to, I just take shots, dude. You heard what Josh said in the locker room, shoot or shoot? Yeah. Keep firing. Yeah, they keep firing. Let's see. Look at them props.

That's, way you do it. You got anything to say to him, Steve? Well, this is the first time I've ever done this. You're mighty ugly when it comes to me. The first time I've ever done this. He just gets a pass. I think it's fine.

What's James Cook's total yards prop? James Cook rushing in receipt. I thought you had the app. Why Steve don't like that? That's crazy you don't like that. Why don't you like that, Steve? Because I've watched. 93 and a half.

Total yards. It's minus 135. That's fine. And we're good? Yeah. I'll take it. Fuck. Steve?

I'll take under rush yards, 75 and a half. Is that your number? Why is he fading me? Steve, I'm willing to give Chris the minus 135. But we had said... Yeah, it's fine.

Okay. Yeah, 75 and a half, Steve. So, Steve, truth be told, Do you think Cook's going to have a big day or a small day? I don't think he's going to run it a lot. Oh, I think he's going to run it some. Not for 75 and a half. Oh, he might, though.

Oh, Steve, he might. Did you watch the tape from last wildcard game? J-Vill? Yeah. No, I'm talking about the one last year. Who's going to garden a kua? No one cares. I said over.

Okay. I said over combined, right? Isn't that total? Oh, I like that. I'm just going, I'm going under rushing. He didn't actually catch the ball in that game, but boy, did they have some vertical seams in that motherfucker? We're an OZ.

Damn, damn. Y'all are pretty high on veteran tight-in. Jared Cook this week. You know what I'm saying? Oh, God, you scared me. Y'all know I'm a bit more selective of my nicotine pouches these days. For me, the quality of the pouches is what I'm which is why I'll pop in a zone wintergreen.

Chris has the Rams minus 3 and a half, the 49ers, Seahawks under 45, the Bills plus 1 and a half, the Texans plus 3, James Cook's total yards over 93.5. Steve has the Niners plus 7 and a half. the Patriots under team total 21 and a half the Seahawks under team total 26 and a half the Rams Bears under 48 and a half

and James Cook's rush yards under 75 and a half and making Chris I need a half point from the both of you I have a question yeah why do you write rush yards are receiving yards in between he what Steve can do three wild cards yeah he did one of each one one

no he did he did one That's actually unreal. One of a side and one of a total. Yeah, but you know what, you know exactly what we're seeing right now. He did three team total. You're playing like you don't see it. It's four picks of either a total or a side and a wild card as a fifth pick.

Yeah, my wild card's the player prop. And the team totals are a wild card. Yes. Must be one of each. Can't do all four. You see exactly what we see, Reed. I see what you're saying, but. But you're acting like you don't.

No, no, no. This is week This is week. This is week. One must be one of each. Can't do all four of one or the other. Now keep reading. Plus wild cards is a fifth pick.

And you've agreed that he's done three wild cards. Three wild cards. Take one away. Fuck. Four picks of either a total or a side. Do you see that part? Yes. I understand.

I'm going to let my lawyer handle this. I understand. Now, Steve, I'm not mad at you. I thought Team Totals were part of the totals. Oh, I didn't. No, they are a wild card. Oh. So that's my fault for not catching us.

Well, we should have caught your bitch. That's unreal. Oh, my God. Did he abscond with... Wise. Wise, Steve. I've never before seen anything like that. it history's been made on backdoor cover oh that is wild you know what though

divisional you don't not too many picks you know what oh shit that's why it's so hard for the two people playing by the rule yeah James Cook though is gonna butt fuck that total on the ground yeah but he's right on the they ran the ball for 200 and something yards last year on this on this Denver outfit but he's right on the team totals. He might be, he might not. He also said, I see this being 2320 in New England, and he took the under team total. Can you imagine if he wins this contest? Oh, it's going to be an asterix for sure. I've, his, he just left. That's unreal. That was the coolest part. His, uh, Mike stand here was, was blocking or else I would have said something. I just wasn't paying attention.

Oh, he's bad. Hey, Steve. Oh, guys got a shred of. Chris's arms were up like this. You ready to start the draft? Yeah. Really? You just might have to take a,

you might have to take a side with your fifth pick. That may be, even though that's a loser. There's no sides left. Oh, the Buffalo under. was there. You might have to take a side or a total. You're in violation of every law there is. Calps. All right. I did not know. Calbs doing a pat down. What's the main with. All right. So what do I have to get rid of? I think you can take away anyone you like. What did I do? Can you imagine if I had done

this? Oh my God, dude. I would have fucking set me on fire. your house. I made sure your family was out, but then I would have firebombed your house. Caldbs, why don't you decide it since you're royally fucked this up? I have the Niners. You have nineers? That's good. Patriots under team total 21 and a half. Your wild card under team total 26 and a half and James Cook reshards under 75 and a half. So one of those has to be a side or a total. Yeah. Well, technically two of the three, but I guess we're letting you do whatever you want. Do it every one. I'll get rid of.

No, I'll tell you what we should do. Honestly, what would be fair is Seattle, post-knowledge of inside information, he should have to change that team total. And I know I benefited from that, but I also followed the rules. Wow. But that's just me posing a solution. I don't actually want to be involved in the solution here, because no matter what I say, people are going to say,

hey, Chris rigged it for himself. Right. No, I will never say that. Only little bitches say that, huh? Bacon would only rig it. I'm not, I also... Known this guy since he was born. When he was a baby, he used to rig stuff.

He used to rig all the little children's games. Back in Pasadena, wherever the fucking grew up. Santa Monica ass kids. Hey, cows, wildest. you decide what we should do here. Well, taking James Cook off the board since it was the last pick. Okay. Seems fair. I think that's a winner. I mean, I, it's a loser. What do you want? Okay. I would get rid of the Seattle. Why don't we draw out of a hat? You take the three, whichever he draws out, he has to replace it. Here, here. It's a, it's a cheater's lottery.

Yeah. You need, we need a, you need a, you need a fucking scarlet letter for. what you did. Hugo. I got it right here. I didn't try and do anything at purpose. Tax evasion. I didn't know. I don't know how taxes work.

And then you turned off your computer screen. That was interesting as hell. That shit froze. That shit froze. Wow. For the first time all year. So are we set on only changing one? Do you want to?

You tell me what I have to do. We got to pick it. You got to pick out of a hat. Okay. I have a number. Okay. I got it right here. Here.

They're labeled 1, 2, 3 for his first fuck up, his second fuckup, and his third fuckup. Hey, hey, Reed, do you want to be Steve's proxy here? You want to add another one that says change two fuckups? Oh, add another one that says, yeah,

or it has to change two fuckups, has to swim to Alcatraz. There's only 25% chance. How much money would it take you to swim to Alcatraz? Yeah. Oh, God, dude. There's 25% chance.

Can you forget how to swim? because I think I've forgotten like I learned and I knew I guess I haven't seen you swim in sometime and then back since the growing up days and then now I'm not so confident in there I think it's quite possible yeah I agree

all right do we want Steve to make his other pick before we see which one is removed God he's texting people oh my God he's like hey Hymbo I'll see if the team total changed oh look what is Did it? What a little gangster.

No. He's probably not out at all. Sam Darnold's not going to fucking oblique. Oh, I hurt my oblique. All right, Calh. Don't look. Don't look, Calbs. Who needs an oblique?

What's it say on there? Three. All right. Oh, my God. James Cook, rush yards. That's unreal. So I have to change James Cook? Yep.

All right. Give me. All right, but we have to pick your prop. His side, his total. Can I take the over in the Patriots Texans game? Yeah, man. Yeah. Have that it, bro.

And then I'm good? You're good. So in your world, New England has to go under, but it goes over. Correct. That's interesting. So you like my Houston pick. And you guys think I cheated. No, I don't think you cheated.

I think it was the, I think it was. was a perfect storm. I think I just lost it wasn't really in there. It's going to go over because probably going to go over. Because fucking, you know, no, no problem. You know what? We get multiple totals next week. Maybe there's not enough to go around.

We shouldn't have any rules. Just take whatever you need. There's two fucking games. Next week, no rules. Yeah. There we. Woo! Gotta get a little crazy.

And each pick's, doubled. I swear to God if this goes over. No, no, each pick's doubled. You fuck boys. This is fuck boy Central. But you can make one pick. Oh, they're rigging it against me. I figured it out. What? If, if, if, if, if, if, you think that Steve bribe read. If no, if, if all the way, Steve's board is still is still wrong. It's wrong, dude. It's still against the rule. But if, if, if, if, if the Pats and the Texans go over and James Cook rushing goes under, all good, cool. If one of them loses, he should take the L, no matter what's on the board. I don't know, man.

I can't make any decisions like this because people are going to say I break the game. Isn't this an ironic moment? You need my influence right now, but you don't have it. Like this affects my life. Picture this. Picture this. Yeah. New England 22, Houston 19.

Cald's, I'll take my half point on New England minus three down to two and a half, please. After that news. Oh, we should get a point, dude. Steve's just qualified. We should get a full point. We should get a full point. That's interesting. Just give me 0 and 5.

No, no. We should get a full point. We really should get a full point, shouldn't we? That's interesting. Because he got an extra team total. We should get a full point. What about a tie? Full point.

What do you think about us? And I keep my original five picks? I give him fucking James Cook You want to give him James Cook Fine yeah Give him James Cook You guys want a point Take a point in a half

And James Cook Okay I'll take a fucking point in a half Take a yard and a half On your James Cook prop No I don't want a yard It's gonna clear easily Okay

17 carries 88 yards Wow Nor Easter coming into Denver Oh really According to who No one I saw 36 and sunny. Yeah.

Oh, wow. You checked the weather this week? Usually it's always this point. You're like, this is where I forgot to check the weather. This week I did. There's less games. All right. So I will take my point.

I'll take Houston to a half. Anarchy. Three and a half. And then I'll take Buffalo. No, no, hold on. I'll take Charlottesville versus the world. So three and a half here. And then I'll take my other half point.

I don't do ties I do so obviously God please tie this week we want San Francisco and Seattle up to 45 and a half I don't play for fucking ties so we're really doing this it's a wins league yeah

second half point yeah you're two half points bro who's gonna be a second half team second half team I know a second half team the Buffalo Bills and Houston Texans Houston Texans for sure

I don't know if I should take the Bears to four plus four or Houston, New England to 41 points. Can I leave? No, not yet. Damn, you're playing for a bunch of ties. There are a lot of 40. Use a whole point and get something away from the ties, man. Oh, you're saying I go back to New England. I would take New England minus one and a half. I'm at it already started at New England minus three. Oh, okay. How did my fuck up and redraft equal a new pick and you guys getting a point? Well, Honestly, you ended up with your same pick. Yeah, you got all your three wild cards.

You got all your, the last 20 minutes means nothing. Sorry to the people that were listening. No, people like this. They're going to be really confused by the graphic. They do. They like the content. There are a few people to listen to this podcast and they all love this one. Hey, Calves.

I don't know what to do here. They say it's fucking magic. Because I hear him say, I don't know what to do. He said 2219. I'm leaving. There's 2318, there's 2417, there's 2714. Well, now we're good because I know what it's going to be. It's going to be 2017.

For sure? Texans. And Houston's going to kick a field to tie it and it goes to overtime. Winner. Kaimi, field goal will probably be pretty good. Yeah, it's a lot of minus money. Yeah, is it? I'm not sure what to do here.

All right, boys. many Christmas. So Steve, you're good. You've picked your... I'm good. You don't know where I'm going though, Steve. Do whatever. I don't care. It's been an hour. And every single time it's come to you, you said, I don't know who to pick her.

Well. That's right, Steve. Let them have it. All right. A little reservoir tip. I'm real freaked out about this 41 number. You know what I'm saying? What's interesting is if I take that little...

Ties lose on. totals, right, Chris? Ties lose. Shut up. Yeah. Ties lose on totals. Not a win, dude. I'm not sure.

It's a wins league. It's a wins league. This is no boys allowed, like the NBA. It's a wins league. If that, if I take Chicago up to four and that total lands on 41, I will, hmm. I will be upset. What are you going to do? I will be really upset.

What are you going to do about it? Throw a pen. What you go? I'm gonna do about it. Jesus. Easy on the biting name. I would rather lose the Chicago game than the New England Houston at 41. Why? But then what if LA wins by four?

Then I look like an idiot. Huh? Look at yourself right now. You've all moved on. You kind of look like an idiot. You're chasing your tail right now, dog. Yeah. Have a good weekend, guys.

Here we go. I don't think this is not what the pros would do, all right? But I'm freaked out by that number. I want that New England. Houston total under 41 please. Thank you. Wow. All right. Hey Steve, nobody circles the wagons like the Buffalo Bills.
