Latest / The Cubby and Christine Morning Show / NFL Survivor Pool Week 5 Results
Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: White FM, it's Cubby, Christine, producer Kristen. We have a
- 0:03Speaker 1: controversy on the show for the first time ever with
- 0:06Speaker 1: our NFL survivor pool.
- 0:08Speaker 2: I don't know how to handle this.
- 0:09Speaker 3: What to do.
- 0:10Speaker 1: So as we all know, producer Kristen, last year's champion
- 0:14Speaker 1: among us, is done.
- 0:15Speaker 2: She's done. So that's not the controversy. It's about you, Christine.
- 0:19Speaker 3: I can't believe it. Me.
- 0:21Speaker 1: So during the weekend games, I picked Texans to beat
- 0:26Speaker 1: the Titans.
- 0:27Speaker 2: And that was an easy one for me. Texans beat
- 0:29Speaker 2: the Titans 26-3.
- 0:30Speaker 3: I almost went with that game, too.
- 0:32Speaker 2: Did you? I did.
- 0:33Speaker 3: That was the first one I was going to go with.
- 0:35Speaker 3: I should have just stuck with that game. But, okay,
- 0:37Speaker 3: go ahead.
- 0:38Speaker 1: Sorry.
- 0:38Speaker 2: No, I was going to say, so you picked the
- 0:41Speaker 2: Commanders over the Giants.
- 0:43Speaker 3: Right.
- 0:44Speaker 2: And you were saying, sorry, New York.
- 0:45Speaker 3: Sorry, New York.
- 0:46Speaker 2: That game was a tie. And we don't get ties
- 0:49Speaker 2: often in the NFL.
- 0:51Speaker 3: I didn't know that we ever did. I had to
- 0:53Speaker 3: actually ask friends. I'm like, wait, games can end in ties?
- 0:56Speaker 2: Yep, regular season. Not playoffs. It wouldn't happen in the playoffs,
- 1:00Speaker 2: but regular season, yeah.
- 1:01Speaker 3: Couldn't they just have played this out and make it
- 1:03Speaker 3: easy for us?
- 1:04Speaker 2: Like come down to sudden death or something?
- 1:05Speaker 3: Yeah, do something, guys.
- 1:06Speaker 2: Because a tie does nothing.
- 1:08Speaker 3: I know what.
- 1:09Speaker 2: You didn't win, but you didn't lose. Right.
- 1:11Speaker 3: Well, and there's our point.
- 1:12Speaker 1: Right.
- 1:12Speaker 3: I didn't lose.
- 1:13Speaker 2: I looked it up.
- 1:14Speaker 1: According to Google, in a standard survivor pool, the rule
- 1:18Speaker 1: states if your chosen team ties, you are eliminated.
- 1:22Speaker 3: Hey.
- 1:22Speaker 1: Because a tie is not considered a win. Because survivor
- 1:25Speaker 1: pools require an outright win to advance. A tie counts
- 1:29Speaker 1: as a loss in most official rule books. But that's
- 1:31Speaker 1: another thing. We never came up with rules for our
- 1:35Speaker 1: survivor pool. We never talked about this.
- 1:36Speaker 3: Okay, technically I didn't lose, though, because the commanders didn't
- 1:40Speaker 3: lose and the giants didn't lose.
- 1:41Speaker 1: But technically you didn't win outright.
- 1:43Speaker 3: No.
- 1:45Speaker 2: Oh, boy. I don't know. Now, what do you think, Kristen?
- 1:48Speaker 2: I'm leaning towards what you're thinking. Keep her in.
- 1:52Speaker 3: I can stay in. Thank you, Kristen.
- 1:53Speaker 2: Yes. Thank me, too. I could fight you on this
- 1:56Speaker 2: if I wanted to. I could be like, no, no,
- 1:59Speaker 2: Christine's not in. She's out. But no, but I don't
- 2:02Speaker 2: want this to end.
- 2:02Speaker 3: I feel like producer Kristen should have the deciding vote.
- 2:05Speaker 2: How about we let Kristen back in?
- 2:07Speaker 3: Let's let Kristen back in. That would be more fun.
- 2:10Speaker 3: Then we get three strikes. Then we have to move
- 2:12Speaker 3: to three strikes.
- 2:13Speaker 2: You want back in?
- 2:14Speaker 3: She does.
- 2:15Speaker 2: She does want back in.
- 2:16Speaker 3: Come on. So let's do three strikes then.
- 2:18Speaker 2: All right. So we're all back in.
- 2:19Speaker 3: We're all back in and we're all happy now.
- 2:21Speaker 2: And we're starting all over week five.
- 2:22Speaker 3: It's like it never happens.
- 2:26Speaker 2: Okay.
- 2:26Speaker 3: So let's go like this. So we're back, but Kristen
- 2:29Speaker 3: has two strikes. You'll maintain that, right? I have one.
- 2:33Speaker 3: Cubby has one. So we're back to three strikes. Yay.
- 2:37Speaker 3: All right.
- 2:37Speaker 2: Well, that's all settled.
- 2:38Speaker 3: So we're making it up as we go.
- 2:40Speaker 1: Okay. Welcome back, Kristen, to the NFL Survivor Four. Let's
- 2:44Speaker 1: play more.
- 2:44Speaker 3: Yes.
- 2:45Speaker 2: All right.
- 2:45Speaker 3: Good.
- 2:45Speaker 1: And we'll have picks for this week coming up tomorrow
- 2:48Speaker 1: or Thursday.
- 2:49Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 2:49Speaker 2: So, all right. Congratulations, everybody. That was team effort.
