- 0:36Speaker 3: What's up, everyone? Tyler Tamburlin here, a.k.a. Totag and Tambo.
- 0:39Speaker 3: Back for another edition of Showdown Shippers here on the
- 0:42Speaker 3: Ship It Nation YouTube station. A very special edition. I
- 0:46Speaker 3: know you want to talk showdown. I know you want
- 0:47Speaker 3: to talk about captains and ownership and roster construction. And
- 0:50Speaker 3: the man, the myth, the legend probably wants to get
- 0:52Speaker 3: into that stuff, too. But we got the GOAT, Hebrew Cheetah,
- 0:55Speaker 3: here with us, fresh off the Millie Maker winner. Got title,
- 0:58Speaker 3: got hoop, as usual. We will get to the showdown content,
- 1:01Speaker 3: all the other stuff after that. But Hebrew Cheetah, Rio,
- 1:04Speaker 3: the man. What's going on? New newest Millie maker in
- 1:06Speaker 3: the world right here with us out of his garage.
- 1:09Speaker 3: Love to see it. What's happening, my friend?
- 1:11Speaker 1: Yeah, not much.
- 1:12Speaker 4: Thank you guys for having me on. First time I've
- 1:14Speaker 4: ever been on a show with all three of you guys.
- 1:15Speaker 4: So pretty cool to to do that. But yeah, I
- 1:19Speaker 4: just wanted to hop on here and just kind of
- 1:20Speaker 4: recap everything. Obviously had a ton of support over the last,
- 1:24Speaker 4: you know, 12 or so hours, whatever it's been. Everybody
- 1:27Speaker 4: reaching out couldn't get to all the messages. It's been
- 1:29Speaker 4: honestly overwhelming, the amount of support that I've gotten. I
- 1:31Speaker 4: really do appreciate everybody reaching out. It's like all the
- 1:34Speaker 4: support has been amazing. I felt it all. And yeah,
- 1:38Speaker 4: just really appreciative. Feel great waking up this morning after
- 1:42Speaker 4: that Sunday. But yeah, just a good time. Good time
- 1:45Speaker 4: to be alive right now.
- 1:47Speaker 3: Yeah, definitely a good time, man. And congrats to you.
- 1:49Speaker 3: Just an extremely special accomplishment. Maybe we can start there.
- 1:52Speaker 3: I'll let Title and Hoop get in on the mix
- 1:53Speaker 3: as well. But just from the starting point, let's talk
- 1:56Speaker 3: about it, man. I know you and I were texting
- 1:57Speaker 3: back and forth, but not everybody is doing that and
- 2:00Speaker 3: going back and forth with you on it. But, you know,
- 2:01Speaker 3: let's end these games. We just got to see what
- 2:03Speaker 3: happens here. Nice to have the Pats D still in
- 2:06Speaker 3: the mix.
- 2:06Speaker 1: Right.
- 2:06Speaker 3: But Title said it yesterday on the show is I'd
- 2:09Speaker 3: want to be sitting up top. after that first set
- 2:11Speaker 3: of games and literally sitting up top after those games.
- 2:14Speaker 3: So talk to us a little bit about the sweat
- 2:16Speaker 3: and how you were feeling once it sort of got
- 2:18Speaker 3: to the point of like, OK, this is the case.
- 2:20Speaker 3: I'm up there now. And then how that feeling is
- 2:21Speaker 3: going into the afternoon.
- 2:23Speaker 4: Yeah, well, first and foremost, watching the the takedown breakdown
- 2:26Speaker 4: this morning, I think you guys did a good job
- 2:28Speaker 4: recapping it. So I would definitely suggest watching that because
- 2:31Speaker 4: a lot of what you guys said was true. But yeah,
- 2:33Speaker 4: just with the way that the slate set up, it
- 2:35Speaker 4: was a little bit more unique than some of the
- 2:38Speaker 4: ones we've had in the past where the games were
- 2:40Speaker 4: front loaded, you want a lot of exposure to the
- 2:42Speaker 4: early games. Obviously you don't really know if you're sweating
- 2:46Speaker 4: that early on, but you know, you check around like
- 2:49Speaker 4: the third, fourth quarter of the early games and see
- 2:51Speaker 4: what you got going on. And then, you know, I
- 2:53Speaker 4: saw that I had that Michael Wilson team in there.
- 2:56Speaker 4: And I mean, honestly, the nut run out, like, I mean,
- 2:59Speaker 4: everybody talks about a lot. I mean, Zach talked about
- 3:00Speaker 4: a ton, like you need everything to go right to
- 3:04Speaker 4: even be close to winning a tournament, but, I mean, man,
- 3:07Speaker 4: that was the most insane run out I've ever had
- 3:10Speaker 4: go my way. What did he get? Like 18 points
- 3:13Speaker 4: on one drive. It was just absolutely insane. Yeah. So
- 3:17Speaker 4: I don't know. The sweat started after that. And yeah,
- 3:21Speaker 4: it's just like the anti-sweat, I guess, because I didn't
- 3:24Speaker 4: have anybody going to the late game except for my defense.
- 3:26Speaker 4: And you can lose points with your defense. Like even
- 3:27Speaker 4: when I was in first, I was not guaranteed to
- 3:31Speaker 4: win it. And yeah, just kind of watching the game,
- 3:34Speaker 4: pacing back and forth for three hours was insane. just
- 3:38Speaker 4: anxiety filled.
- 3:39Speaker 3: Were you by yourself?
- 3:40Speaker 4: No, I was, I went over to a friend's house
- 3:42Speaker 4: down the street, had a couple of people come over
- 3:45Speaker 4: cause I kind of knew that the possibility was real.
- 3:47Speaker 4: So I wanted to celebrate and have my parents come too.
- 3:49Speaker 4: So yeah, but I was, I was with a couple
- 3:52Speaker 4: of people. I don't think like if you're not hanging
- 3:54Speaker 4: out with people that really understand the DFS game, it's
- 3:56Speaker 4: hard to really put it into, into words. But I
- 4:00Speaker 4: think that they understood once they saw me just pacing
- 4:02Speaker 4: back and forth for two or three hours.
- 4:04Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 4:05Speaker 3: Hoop, you know what it's like, man. You've been there.
- 4:07Speaker 3: You've got a Millie Maker yourself. You were off a
- 4:10Speaker 3: game stack in the morning. Rio obviously had, you know,
- 4:12Speaker 3: we popped it up here. I can show people quick. Obviously,
- 4:15Speaker 3: like you said, go back to the takedown break. They're
- 4:16Speaker 3: not going to spend a bunch of time on it.
- 4:17Speaker 3: But you had Burrow, Chase, Higgins. You had Helm to
- 4:21Speaker 3: allow you to fit everything else. And then you had
- 4:23Speaker 3: Braylon Allen, Tootin, two of the best plays at running
- 4:25Speaker 3: back yesterday based on everything else. You had Wilson when
- 4:28Speaker 3: you weren't on. McBride or anything, instead of Henry and
- 4:31Speaker 3: the Steelers, you kind of had the fanning against the
- 4:34Speaker 3: Steelers and the Patriots defense, but who you've been here.
- 4:37Speaker 3: What did you have that day? Jacobs was the guy
- 4:39Speaker 3: in the afternoon. Like you, you still had to have
- 4:41Speaker 3: somebody get to the house for you. Rio talked about
- 4:43Speaker 3: the anti-sweat. I'll let you hop in and ask some
- 4:45Speaker 3: questions yourself with them. But the, the, the sweats are
- 4:48Speaker 3: just crazy down the stretch like he said him entitled
- 4:50Speaker 3: talked about it you need everything to go your way
- 4:52Speaker 3: you get that feeling of momentum i talked about it
- 4:55Speaker 3: the previous week it felt a lot of things were
- 4:57Speaker 3: starting to go my way and rio was texting me
- 4:58Speaker 3: that day too like i said rio's always there supporting
- 5:01Speaker 3: people in the community his friends one of the most
- 5:03Speaker 3: genuine authentic humble dudes in the world but hoop you've
- 5:06Speaker 3: been there talk about it with your situation and compare
- 5:09Speaker 3: and contrast with rio and go ahead.
- 5:11Speaker 1: Yeah it's like a weird feeling i guess when it
- 5:14Speaker 1: kicks in that you actually really have a chance or
- 5:16Speaker 1: you think you really have a chance i guess you
- 5:17Speaker 1: really don't know like if you have a chance or
- 5:20Speaker 1: not like you you don't know what's behind you i
- 5:22Speaker 1: guess nowadays um with the the tracking and what some
- 5:25Speaker 1: people are doing like you have a little better idea
- 5:28Speaker 1: of where you're at but um you know one little
- 5:31Speaker 1: thing doesn't go your way and you're it's over like
- 5:34Speaker 1: you know the the chiefs and you know we're talking
- 5:37Speaker 1: about it the the coleman guy it's like that goes
- 5:39Speaker 1: to overtime that you just broke off a 50 yard run.
- 5:42Speaker 1: Let's say he does it again. And it's a 50
- 5:44Speaker 1: yard run for a touchdown. I don't know how close
- 5:46Speaker 1: the team was behind you. It could have been a
- 5:49Speaker 1: game over. So the, the sweat is it's yeah. I mean, it's,
- 5:53Speaker 1: it's fun, nerve wracking, like everything there. Cause you just,
- 5:56Speaker 1: you really don't, don't know. But in, in terms of
- 6:00Speaker 1: yesterday and you know, Rio situation we talked about on
- 6:03Speaker 1: the show. I mean, I think I said at one point,
- 6:06Speaker 1: it's like, Usually we say, you know, don't get too
- 6:09Speaker 1: comfortable going into the afternoon games. I don't know. We
- 6:12Speaker 1: had a conversation around it briefly yesterday where it's like, well,
- 6:15Speaker 1: today's the one day where if you're sitting pretty after
- 6:18Speaker 1: the early games, you might feel pretty good about your situation. So,
- 6:22Speaker 1: you know, I pulled up. I didn't pull. I never
- 6:25Speaker 1: really look until like later in the afternoon. Once those
- 6:28Speaker 1: games get kicked off, I pulled it up and I
- 6:30Speaker 1: saw Rio up top. I was like, OK, well, you know,
- 6:33Speaker 1: we said there was a chance that a guy sitting
- 6:35Speaker 1: up top after the early games could hold and it
- 6:38Speaker 1: was our guy Rio. So I'm like, all right, now,
- 6:40Speaker 1: now let's go, let's finish this off. Nothing was really
- 6:43Speaker 1: happening in those games. So I know, you know, you
- 6:46Speaker 1: put the graphic out there, they put them at what,
- 6:48Speaker 1: like a 60 some percent chance to, to, to win
- 6:52Speaker 1: it at some point. And yeah, again, but you still
- 6:54Speaker 1: just never know. You don't want to get too comfortable
- 6:56Speaker 1: because we talked about it, man. It's like, as soon
- 6:59Speaker 1: as you start dropping in those Millie makers, you go from,
- 7:02Speaker 1: It goes quick. You get out of that top five
- 7:04Speaker 1: or whatever it is. It's like you're going to be extremely,
- 7:07Speaker 1: extremely disappointed. But, you know, Rio obviously got the job done.
- 7:11Speaker 1: It was exciting stuff, excited for him. I pulled up
- 7:15Speaker 1: the I went to text him after and I pulled
- 7:18Speaker 1: up the text between the two of us. And the
- 7:21Speaker 1: last text I had was me to him after he
- 7:24Speaker 1: finished was a second place. Right. He finished second for
- 7:26Speaker 1: the hundred. And the previous text was solid run in Millie.
- 7:31Speaker 1: you will get it this season. And that was on
- 7:34Speaker 1: September 20th. So we're like six weeks ago.
- 7:37Speaker 3: It's nuts.
- 7:38Speaker 1: Six weeks ago. I was like, I said, I just
- 7:40Speaker 1: read that text. I said, I guess it came true.
- 7:42Speaker 1: I said a little quicker than I anticipated, but it's
- 7:45Speaker 1: so cool to see them. It's awesome. And I guess
- 7:47Speaker 1: like taking it outside of DFS, like when you, look
- 7:51Speaker 1: at somebody that has dedicated their life to a skill,
- 7:55Speaker 1: whatever it is, if it's a basketball player or an
- 7:57Speaker 1: accountant or a teacher, whatever it is, whatever the hell
- 8:00Speaker 1: it is, whatever industry you see someone that dedicated their
- 8:03Speaker 1: life to it has absolutely busted their ass at the
- 8:06Speaker 1: skillset it takes to get to the top level. Like
- 8:10Speaker 1: when you see somebody do that and then they actually
- 8:13Speaker 1: achieve it, it's so cool. And that's just outside of DFS.
- 8:16Speaker 1: That's just in life. Like you can see, from just afar,
- 8:21Speaker 1: like how hard somebody is working at a skill to
- 8:24Speaker 1: master it, to get better, to improve. And in this industry,
- 8:27Speaker 1: there's not many people that have put in the time,
- 8:30Speaker 1: the work, the effort. And I know this firsthand. I
- 8:32Speaker 1: know you both do as well, because, you know, we've
- 8:34Speaker 1: been close with Rio for years. Like, so cool to
- 8:39Speaker 1: see him finally get there because, man, he's busted his
- 8:41Speaker 1: ass in this industry. I mean, absolutely has busted his
- 8:44Speaker 1: ass and he deserves it and super excited for him.
- 8:48Speaker 1: And it's just really cool to see. Yeah.
- 8:50Speaker 3: I love that title. I'll let you hop in too, man. Just,
- 8:52Speaker 3: you know, you've been quiet. Obviously we had a lot
- 8:54Speaker 3: of conversations going back and forth, but you know, any,
- 8:56Speaker 3: any thoughts you've got here with Rio? I know you
- 8:58Speaker 3: guys are pretty close and like you said, you've got a,
- 9:00Speaker 3: a lot to look out for here. So.
- 9:03Speaker 5: Yeah, no, I, I mean, hoops at his point, I
- 9:06Speaker 5: think it was really good when you worked so hard
- 9:08Speaker 5: at something.
- 9:09Speaker 2: To see it pay off.
- 9:10Speaker 5: And I mean, Rio, even if he didn't win the
- 9:12Speaker 5: million in his whole life, like he's, I mean, he's,
- 9:15Speaker 5: he's made a stamp in this industry, but, I do
- 9:17Speaker 5: believe in good karma. You be a good person. You
- 9:20Speaker 5: get good things back. It's really, really hard to get
- 9:22Speaker 5: there at the top.
- 9:23Speaker 2: And yeah, I'm yeah. Believe it. Don't believe whatever. Maybe
- 9:26Speaker 2: there's still players.
- 9:27Speaker 5: It's outside your control, but you do need a little
- 9:30Speaker 5: extra luck and everything needs to happen. And yeah, no
- 9:32Speaker 5: one deserves it more than Rio. I've been blessed to
- 9:34Speaker 5: know him for many years.
- 9:36Speaker 2: Put in the work.
- 9:36Speaker 5: I mean, everyone knows if you're in the NBA discord
- 9:38Speaker 5: alone and he's not, I mean, he's going to be
- 9:40Speaker 5: in the NBA discord, not tomorrow. There's actually no show tomorrow,
- 9:44Speaker 5: but Wednesday, Thursday, all that. Totally well-deserved, and it was
- 9:47Speaker 5: really cool to see my boy Randy Moss Jr. get
- 9:50Speaker 5: the job done. Broken ribs and all, and a perfectly
- 9:53Speaker 5: constructed lineup.
- 9:54Speaker 2: But no, I hope I hope you get a fan
- 9:56Speaker 2: in Jersey.
- 9:56Speaker 5: I hope you get a Michael Wilson Jersey, whatever you
- 9:59Speaker 5: do with it, but yeah, nobody deserves it more than real.
- 10:02Speaker 2: I was very, very happy for him.
- 10:04Speaker 3: Yeah. Love to see that. And by the way, the,
- 10:06Speaker 3: you know, talk about, I said earlier, Hebrew cheetah got
- 10:08Speaker 3: the three H's. It said hardworking, helpful, humble. And then
- 10:12Speaker 3: I'll add another just, you know, very happy today. I'm
- 10:14Speaker 3: sure Rio. So talk about the emotions after, right. You,
- 10:17Speaker 3: you know, you went into already what it was like
- 10:19Speaker 3: sort of pacing around in the sweat, but what's, what
- 10:21Speaker 3: is it? What is that feeling? Finally getting the job done.
- 10:23Speaker 3: You said it like I prayed for times that you said, finally,
- 10:26Speaker 3: like this is the, it means like, like hoop set,
- 10:28Speaker 3: you're putting in the work you've been waiting for this moment.
- 10:31Speaker 3: it finally happens. And literally just six weeks ago, you
- 10:33Speaker 3: had to deal with disappointment of being right there. And
- 10:36Speaker 3: it just comes up short, inspiring. I know for me
- 10:38Speaker 3: off of fourth place last week, seeing how quick you
- 10:40Speaker 3: can just have that turnaround and get it right back.
- 10:43Speaker 3: But talk about the feeling of finally crossing the finish line.
- 10:45Speaker 3: What were you doing? What was the celebration like after that?
- 10:48Speaker 3: I think a lot of people want to know.
- 10:50Speaker 4: Yeah. Firstly, thank you hoop and a title for the
- 10:53Speaker 4: nice words. Definitely got me feeling a little emotional over
- 10:55Speaker 4: here this morning, but yeah, I appreciate it a lot.
- 10:58Speaker 4: It means a lot. Um, Yeah, as far as what
- 11:02Speaker 4: went on afterwards, it was just kind of like, you know,
- 11:06Speaker 4: a couple moments where you're just in shock. I'm sure, Hoop,
- 11:08Speaker 4: you kind of felt that way where you're just like
- 11:11Speaker 4: waiting for the money to hit the account. And it's just, yeah,
- 11:14Speaker 4: it was crazy. Just really just in shock. And yeah,
- 11:17Speaker 4: I didn't play any lineups in the showdown game that night,
- 11:23Speaker 4: just kind of watching it and catching up with everybody
- 11:25Speaker 4: that was reaching out because there was a ton of
- 11:26Speaker 4: people I wanted to make sure I got around to
- 11:28Speaker 4: as much as I could. But yeah, I think just,
- 11:31Speaker 4: you know, the best thing was being with, you know,
- 11:34Speaker 4: close friends and family, people that know, have seen the
- 11:38Speaker 4: work that goes behind every, you know, every single week,
- 11:41Speaker 4: like the prep starts super early in the week for NFL.
- 11:44Speaker 4: So just being with people that have seen that firsthand,
- 11:48Speaker 4: I think was really cool. Celebrating with my brother and
- 11:50Speaker 4: my parents was amazing. You know, people that have really
- 11:53Speaker 4: seen it from start to finish. I mean, I started
- 11:56Speaker 4: playing DFS in 2016 and, And it was me and
- 11:59Speaker 4: my brother listening to Sirius XM videos, getting information there
- 12:02Speaker 4: before even knowing what projections and optimizers and all that
- 12:05Speaker 4: stuff was. So celebrating with him was, was amazing. Yeah.
- 12:11Speaker 4: I mean, just, you know, a lot of, a lot
- 12:12Speaker 4: of beers, a couple, a couple of whiskey drinks, good
- 12:15Speaker 4: time with friends. And yeah, I ended up, I got
- 12:18Speaker 4: a little e-bike, live pretty close to the beach. So
- 12:20Speaker 4: I took that down there and just run around for
- 12:21Speaker 4: a little bit, listen to music and kind of took
- 12:23Speaker 4: a moment to myself to just let it all soak in.
- 12:26Speaker 4: Cause yeah, I just needed to, really feel it. That's
- 12:29Speaker 4: when it kind of became real. Just being by yourself and,
- 12:32Speaker 4: and knowing that you finally done it was, was really cool.
- 12:35Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 12:36Speaker 4: I mean, it was, it was a great night. Really,
- 12:38Speaker 4: really good night.
- 12:39Speaker 3: Yeah. Can't ask for a better outcome. Like you said,
- 12:41Speaker 3: you gotta, gotta have everything go right to get there.
- 12:43Speaker 3: A lot of people pouring out even more support in
- 12:45Speaker 3: the chat. We appreciate all you. I know Rio does,
- 12:47Speaker 3: but you know, little things like this just add up, right?
- 12:50Speaker 3: James says, congratulations. You helped me win small wins, NBA
- 12:53Speaker 3: in the past. It's, you know, small wins can turn
- 12:55Speaker 3: into big wins and you're putting in that time. It just,
- 12:57Speaker 3: this is, everybody starts somewhere. And that's, you know, Rio's
- 13:00Speaker 3: explaining his story. He posted on his ex account last night,
- 13:02Speaker 3: 10 plus years of the grind, right? It's just, it's
- 13:05Speaker 3: a lot that goes into these things to get there.
- 13:07Speaker 3: Somebody else said this, I think, you know, Rio and
- 13:09Speaker 3: I talked yesterday and pre-show today of like, it's not
- 13:12Speaker 3: about like, everybody just doesn't see it the same way.
- 13:15Speaker 3: Hoops said it best. It's like when you put your
- 13:16Speaker 3: entire life around a craft, it doesn't matter what it is.
- 13:19Speaker 3: Some people it's golf. Like you said, they want to
- 13:21Speaker 3: get better at that and they go put in lessons
- 13:23Speaker 3: and keep playing the game. And then whatever the event
- 13:25Speaker 3: might be in this case, it's just, this is the
- 13:27Speaker 3: game we play. And that's why we play the game
- 13:29Speaker 3: right there. The million dollars important Rio, I think, right.
- 13:32Speaker 3: We talked about this, but you know, it's, that's the money,
- 13:35Speaker 3: but it's also, it's because it's the biggest event. I
- 13:37Speaker 3: always compare it to like a golf major, right? to
- 13:40Speaker 3: title's point. He said, there's a lot of people that
- 13:41Speaker 3: will never win the Millie maker, but still made a
- 13:44Speaker 3: stamp or had good results or crushed it there. It's fine.
- 13:46Speaker 3: Like you, you can't control all the outcomes. You got
- 13:48Speaker 3: to keep putting the time in work at it. You know, we,
- 13:51Speaker 3: we talk about it all the time, but achieving it
- 13:53Speaker 3: or hitting that, that big major feeling is what matters
- 13:56Speaker 3: so much. You say you took some time to yourself,
- 13:57Speaker 3: you know, whipped around, listen a little bit music, stuff
- 13:59Speaker 3: like that, but. Just incredible, incredible stuff, man. Who titled,
- 14:03Speaker 3: did you guys have anything else you wanted to hit
- 14:04Speaker 3: Rio with here before we move on to the other stuff?
- 14:07Speaker 3: I think we'll have some Rio at Stata guys, just
- 14:09Speaker 3: so you guys know for the Ship It Nation community,
- 14:11Speaker 3: we got some giveaways coming and some fun stuff there,
- 14:13Speaker 3: but got to let them just bask in it. It's
- 14:15Speaker 3: already cool enough that he just showed up right after
- 14:17Speaker 3: the celebration to hop on with us. Just such an
- 14:19Speaker 3: incredible feeling. Can't, can't imagine. Just amazing.
- 14:22Speaker 5: No, I love the whipping around. I would, I'd do
- 14:25Speaker 5: the same thing. A walk, whatever it is like that's
- 14:28Speaker 5: totally can resonate with me. That's how it hit. You
- 14:31Speaker 5: deserve it. Take it all in. Enjoy it for a week.
- 14:33Speaker 5: My question, though, is how did you sleep?
- 14:36Speaker 2: When did you go to bed? Did you wake up
- 14:37Speaker 2: in the middle of the night? How did that go?
- 14:40Speaker 4: I slept like a damn baby, honestly.
- 14:42Speaker 2: Okay, I love it.
- 14:43Speaker 1: The beers and the whiskey probably helped that.
- 14:47Speaker 4: They definitely did. A little late-night snack, too. I really
- 14:50Speaker 4: couldn't eat when I was watching the games. I was
- 14:52Speaker 4: just not hungry, so I didn't realize that I skipped
- 14:55Speaker 4: out on lunch and dinner. Basically, my diet was just
- 14:59Speaker 4: a lot of beers, but got home, just had some snacks, watched, uh,
- 15:03Speaker 4: watched super bad and just slept like a baby. Woke
- 15:06Speaker 4: up this morning, turned on the, uh, the takedown breakdown show.
- 15:10Speaker 4: Tambo asked me to come on and got ready real quick,
- 15:12Speaker 4: but yeah, I slept, slept great. It was hard, hard
- 15:15Speaker 4: to not sleep like that after, after that.
- 15:17Speaker 1: Type of night.
- 15:18Speaker 2: And I got one more.
- 15:19Speaker 5: Cause I think probably a lot of people in chat,
- 15:21Speaker 5: this will, this will hit them home. But yeah, you've
- 15:22Speaker 5: been playing since 2016, like a million maker, everyone's goal
- 15:26Speaker 5: or like the thing is that like, I, Personally, that
- 15:29Speaker 5: has never really been mine as much because I know
- 15:31Speaker 5: Top Heavy and how much you can lose while doing it.
- 15:34Speaker 5: Osimo back in the day posted that, how he was
- 15:37Speaker 5: down millions of dollars. I think he won a Millie
- 15:38Speaker 5: Maker and still is down in that contest. So having
- 15:42Speaker 5: goals and like, what did you start? I mean, I
- 15:44Speaker 5: met you at the live final before I even know
- 15:46Speaker 5: you and had a great time there. But like the
- 15:48Speaker 5: bankroll obviously grows when you have success, but you need
- 15:51Speaker 5: to still manage that bankroll to be there. So for
- 15:54Speaker 5: people out there listening and watching, how did 10 years
- 15:57Speaker 5: ago when it starts, What were you playing?
- 15:59Speaker 2: How did it grow?
- 16:00Speaker 5: Anything to now being one of the biggest crushers?
- 16:04Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, didn't really expect this type of success
- 16:07Speaker 4: when I started 10 years ago because I didn't really
- 16:09Speaker 4: even know that it was possible. Just kind of, you know,
- 16:12Speaker 4: watching sports and enjoying it and potentially making money off
- 16:16Speaker 4: of it. It sounded like something I was interested in.
- 16:18Speaker 4: So I started to learn a little bit more about that.
- 16:21Speaker 4: And then I think maybe in 2020, 2019 is when
- 16:25Speaker 4: it started to feel like, OK, this is actually something
- 16:27Speaker 4: that you could do for a living and you could
- 16:30Speaker 4: be really good at if you put the time in.
- 16:31Speaker 4: But yeah, I mean, for anybody, well, most people that
- 16:36Speaker 4: play DFS are like the winning the Millie is the
- 16:39Speaker 4: ultimate goal. That's it's either that or winning a live final.
- 16:43Speaker 4: And yeah, that was, I mean, for years, like I
- 16:46Speaker 4: really do believe in the power of manifestation for years.
- 16:49Speaker 4: I wrote it down like in journals, in my notes
- 16:52Speaker 4: app and said like, what goals for this year, win
- 16:54Speaker 4: a Millie in NFL. And to finally have that, It's
- 16:58Speaker 4: kind of why you do it. I feel really proud
- 17:03Speaker 4: of myself, honestly. I know how much time and effort
- 17:06Speaker 4: I put in. My family knows how much I put in,
- 17:08Speaker 4: and it just feels really good to do that. I
- 17:13Speaker 4: don't know. I really do believe manifestation is real. You've
- 17:17Speaker 4: got to believe that you're going to win. I'm not
- 17:19Speaker 4: going to step into any sort of arena with the
- 17:21Speaker 4: expectation to lose. I really want to hammer that point home.
- 17:24Speaker 4: You've got to be positive. Don't come into it with
- 17:27Speaker 4: a negative mindset.
- 17:27Speaker 5: 100% true, but you also have to put in the
- 17:30Speaker 5: work to then make it happen. You can't just, I'm
- 17:33Speaker 5: going to be a millionaire and then do nothing and
- 17:35Speaker 5: just wake up and it happened. But no, I couldn't
- 17:37Speaker 5: agree more. Yeah, big congrats. That's all I got.
- 17:40Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 17:41Speaker 3: I love one thing there too. I want to just
- 17:42Speaker 3: run off that quickly because it was to Hoop's point,
- 17:45Speaker 3: he brought it up. It's six weeks ago. I get
- 17:47Speaker 3: like everyone, again, I think this is where it gets tricky.
- 17:50Speaker 3: Cause obviously people like a hundred thousand dollars is still
- 17:53Speaker 3: important to everybody here, but it's also like when you're
- 17:56Speaker 3: going after that goal of a million, it's like, that's
- 17:58Speaker 3: a frustrating spot to be in where like that night
- 18:00Speaker 3: before I joked about it before I said, there's been days,
- 18:02Speaker 3: sometimes I want to throw this sign out because I
- 18:04Speaker 3: actually do care. Right. I do care so much. I
- 18:06Speaker 3: want to make this thing happen and try and get
- 18:08Speaker 3: to a goal and, In this case, you could have
- 18:10Speaker 3: done that. You could have been extremely frustrated by it,
- 18:12Speaker 3: but you got right back in the streets, grinded it out.
- 18:15Speaker 3: What is your ability to sort of turn it around?
- 18:17Speaker 3: Or what is your mindset? Do you go back to
- 18:19Speaker 3: the journal? You talked about manifestation, you're riding around, listening
- 18:22Speaker 3: to the music. How do you sort of separate it
- 18:24Speaker 3: to be able just to bounce right back? And again,
- 18:27Speaker 3: you wouldn't know that it's going to be six weeks later,
- 18:28Speaker 3: you ship it. But at the end of the day,
- 18:30Speaker 3: the idea of how do you handle something where it
- 18:32Speaker 3: was like, great, good, right there. Still get a bunch
- 18:35Speaker 3: of money. Awesome to start my season with 100K. But man,
- 18:39Speaker 3: the ultimate goal is right there. Like, how do you
- 18:41Speaker 3: handle that? How does that sort of work for you?
- 18:43Speaker 4: Yeah, great question. And I definitely know where to go
- 18:46Speaker 4: with this one because I've definitely been a person that
- 18:48Speaker 4: would extreme tilt and let it ruin a night, honestly.
- 18:52Speaker 4: And that like probably a couple of years ago is
- 18:54Speaker 4: over maybe a couple thousand dollars. Whereas now over six figures,
- 18:58Speaker 4: seven figures, I don't know. I probably have a different approach.
- 19:00Speaker 4: And honestly, a lot of that is due to Zach.
- 19:02Speaker 4: Like I've met him or we've hung out a lot
- 19:05Speaker 4: in person. He's always said like, never get too high
- 19:07Speaker 4: on the high or lows on the lows. And I
- 19:09Speaker 4: really started to implement that into my mindset. So like, yeah,
- 19:12Speaker 4: I'm upset when something like that happens when I don't
- 19:14Speaker 4: win a million, but you do need a lot of
- 19:17Speaker 4: things to go well or go your way. And to
- 19:19Speaker 4: know that you've at least put yourself in a position
- 19:22Speaker 4: to have a chance. I think you can't really be
- 19:24Speaker 4: too caught up on the results. Just know that you've
- 19:27Speaker 4: played the right game and you if you can seem
- 19:28Speaker 4: to do that over the time the law law of
- 19:30Speaker 4: averages are going to work out in your favor and
- 19:32Speaker 4: eventually happen you know eventually have things go your way
- 19:35Speaker 4: like just happened yesterday so yeah definitely got to attribute
- 19:38Speaker 4: a lot of that to learning from title love it yeah.
- 19:41Speaker 3: That's awesome man that's amazing just because i think a
- 19:43Speaker 3: lot of people go through that and obviously we've seen
- 19:45Speaker 3: people win big money and that you know maybe i'll
- 19:47Speaker 3: give it to hoop for a second, but if you
- 19:49Speaker 3: take the money, what do you do with it next?
- 19:50Speaker 3: But somebody will win the big money. And we've said
- 19:52Speaker 3: it before, like we're on a Sunday, we see somebody
- 19:55Speaker 3: win and Monday night football, they're in for 30 K
- 19:57Speaker 3: or something. They've never played that kind of money in
- 19:59Speaker 3: their life. Like, Whoa. whoa, taxes first and then this
- 20:02Speaker 3: and then this. But you see that, but also you
- 20:04Speaker 3: see people go on a downswing after something like a
- 20:07Speaker 3: close call, even though it's a good hit, it's they
- 20:10Speaker 3: let the negative thing affect them. Or it's the other way,
- 20:12Speaker 3: like they're winning money if you get pushed back to
- 20:14Speaker 3: a worse score than you thought you were going to get,
- 20:16Speaker 3: but it's not over till it's over. And then you
- 20:18Speaker 3: see them sort of spiral out. And I've even been
- 20:20Speaker 3: there myself personally, where that's happened of like a bad
- 20:24Speaker 3: downswing and then you just make it worse. So the
- 20:25Speaker 3: fact that you can keep yourself on that and love
- 20:28Speaker 3: that it comes from title and, and, you know, try
- 20:29Speaker 3: and put that some into my own game and I
- 20:31Speaker 3: hope others can as well. So awesome, awesome point on that.
- 20:33Speaker 3: Who did you have anything else for Rio?
- 20:36Speaker 1: I guess the question I always have when, you know,
- 20:39Speaker 1: something like this happens is like any initial plans, not
- 20:42Speaker 1: necessarily like with the money, but is there anything like you,
- 20:45Speaker 1: you're going to purchase or anything you're going to do
- 20:47Speaker 1: differently in, in life, I guess is, is the question.
- 20:50Speaker 1: I know it just happened last night, but you always
- 20:51Speaker 1: have that, those thoughts going through your head. If this happens,
- 20:55Speaker 1: I might do something as though just any, Any thoughts there?
- 20:58Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 20:58Speaker 4: I think one thing that I've really tried to do,
- 21:00Speaker 4: I don't know if this is a good or bad thing,
- 21:02Speaker 4: but celebrating the wins a little bit more. And that
- 21:05Speaker 4: maybe comes with, you know, having something that is like,
- 21:11Speaker 4: like buying something, even though it doesn't really mean a lot,
- 21:14Speaker 4: it doesn't have like a ton of true value. It's
- 21:16Speaker 4: more so just like a representation of the hard work.
- 21:19Speaker 4: So I always felt like if I were to win
- 21:21Speaker 4: a million, I have a lot of, vintage cars that
- 21:24Speaker 4: I'm looking at. Like I love vintage cars. I'm potentially
- 21:27Speaker 4: thinking about that. Like I think when I had a
- 21:29Speaker 4: pretty nice, uh, nice streak in, in, uh, MLB this summer,
- 21:34Speaker 4: like I, you know, splurged a little bit on some jewelry.
- 21:36Speaker 4: I never buy jewelry. So just things like that where it's,
- 21:38Speaker 4: it's not really about like the item itself, but more
- 21:41Speaker 4: so just a representation of the work. The items are
- 21:44Speaker 4: really cool, but yeah. Yeah.
- 21:46Speaker 1: That's neat. That's awesome.
- 21:50Speaker 5: Are you getting a jersey? I pretty much told you
- 21:52Speaker 5: to get one. Coop did– his wife, shout out Jen,
- 21:56Speaker 5: did a great– the poster.
- 21:57Speaker 1: That was really sick.
- 21:58Speaker 2: Is there anything like that that you're going to do?
- 22:02Speaker 1: We'll see.
- 22:03Speaker 4: Definitely get a jersey. I feel like I've put that off.
- 22:05Speaker 4: I've had a couple of nice wins in NBA where
- 22:07Speaker 4: I'm like, oh, I'm going to get a Max Christie jersey,
- 22:09Speaker 4: but never end up doing it. I've got to get
- 22:11Speaker 4: a Michael Wilson jersey, though. I think that's my guy
- 22:14Speaker 4: for life.
- 22:14Speaker 2: Yeah, hell yeah.
- 22:16Speaker 3: He's the man.
- 22:16Speaker 1: I was going to say, Wilson or Moss on the
- 22:18Speaker 1: back is the real question. Moss Jr. or Wilson?
- 22:22Speaker 2: He played like Moss Jr., and he came out with
- 22:24Speaker 2: broken ribs. He's the man.
- 22:25Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 22:26Speaker 3: He did it, man. He got the job done. Anything else, Rio,
- 22:29Speaker 3: you want to sort of pass along anymore? I mean, awesome.
- 22:31Speaker 3: Just the amount you share already is incredible. And just
- 22:34Speaker 3: have your answers. You're so well grounded, which is what
- 22:37Speaker 3: I love about you. Just being able to come out
- 22:38Speaker 3: like there's nothing like, oh, well, let me think about this.
- 22:42Speaker 3: You kind of know who you are. And I think
- 22:43Speaker 3: that's important. Just being yourself for everybody out there. But
- 22:46Speaker 3: you particularly do this better than most. So I love that.
- 22:49Speaker 3: Any other advice or anything else you want to pass along?
- 22:53Speaker 3: Any other thoughts or stories or anything else you want
- 22:55Speaker 3: to tell from this experience?
- 22:57Speaker 4: Yeah, no, I appreciate that, Sambo. I appreciate the kind
- 23:00Speaker 4: words always. I don't really know if I have much
- 23:02Speaker 4: to leave you guys with. I'm definitely not the type
- 23:05Speaker 4: of person that I don't think I'm old enough to
- 23:06Speaker 4: really be giving out any sort of life advice yet.
- 23:09Speaker 4: But yeah, I don't know. Whatever it is that you're
- 23:11Speaker 4: working on, just stay the course. Always believe in yourself
- 23:14Speaker 4: and definitely come with a positive mindset. Good things can
- 23:18Speaker 4: happen for sure.
- 23:19Speaker 3: Yeah, I like this one Choke said earlier, the affirmation
- 23:21Speaker 3: that you were right to stay the course means more
- 23:23Speaker 3: than the money. Like that's where maybe something to figure
- 23:25Speaker 3: it out from that perspective. Obviously, money's great and all
- 23:27Speaker 3: the different factors. But when you do really work on
- 23:30Speaker 3: a craft as much as all of us here and
- 23:32Speaker 3: a lot of people in the community do, that's what's cool.
- 23:34Speaker 3: That's why it's so fun. Yes, I like the community sweat.
- 23:37Speaker 3: as well. Right. We had so many people, I think
- 23:38Speaker 3: it was the minute you posted, there was automatically like
- 23:40Speaker 3: 200 emojis or something just hopped in right away. Like
- 23:43Speaker 3: people just really love you and what you do. And
- 23:45Speaker 3: then on top of it, you know, they want to
- 23:47Speaker 3: support you and show that back.
- 23:48Speaker 1: Right.
- 23:49Speaker 3: It's like, we all cheer for ourselves, individual game, but
- 23:51Speaker 3: when it comes down to the stretch, I love the
- 23:53Speaker 3: person in discord yesterday who said, uh, This is a family.
- 23:56Speaker 3: It's like you're cheering for your own family. That's really
- 23:58Speaker 3: what the fun is. We know enough about each other.
- 24:01Speaker 3: We're hanging out all the time on shows and chats
- 24:03Speaker 3: and discords and whatever. It's not always in real life, friends,
- 24:06Speaker 3: but it's also just the ability to be able to
- 24:08Speaker 3: support each other along the journey. And when you're out,
- 24:11Speaker 3: people always give Ricky Fowler shit for this back in
- 24:12Speaker 3: the day, like give him something to hit. He can't win.
- 24:15Speaker 3: The tournament ended. He's seven strokes back. He's going to
- 24:17Speaker 3: wait at the green and high five his buddy because
- 24:19Speaker 3: that's his buddy, man. He's cheering for him. He's out.
- 24:21Speaker 3: He can't win. Why would you ever... want someone else
- 24:24Speaker 3: to lose and be negative about it. Like root for
- 24:26Speaker 3: your people, man. That's what it's all about. So, Honestly, Rio,
- 24:29Speaker 3: can't say enough good things. Just so happy to see
- 24:31Speaker 3: you get the job done, actually get the ultimate ship it.
- 24:35Speaker 3: He said, finally, the text back and forth yesterday. We
- 24:37Speaker 3: said it was going to be a good day. I
- 24:38Speaker 3: texted yesterday morning, said it's going to be a really
- 24:40Speaker 3: good day over here, and it turned out to be
- 24:42Speaker 3: a great day, man, for you. So shout out to Rio.
- 24:45Speaker 3: Shout out to everybody that supported along the way. We'll
- 24:48Speaker 3: let him get back to it. Maybe he wants a nap.
- 24:50Speaker 3: Maybe he wants to just keep the party rolling. But Rio,
- 24:52Speaker 3: really appreciate you, man. Congrats again. Thank you so much
- 24:55Speaker 3: for doing this so quickly after the event. Of course.
- 24:58Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 24:58Speaker 4: Thanks for having me on. Got to get the NBA
- 25:01Speaker 4: slate plan up. We got a lot of a lot
- 25:02Speaker 4: of games tonight. So get that going pretty soon. But
- 25:05Speaker 4: I appreciate all that. Yeah. Right back to the grind, man.
- 25:08Speaker 1: Yeah. One thing to add. So this is a quick
- 25:12Speaker 1: little funny story about winning the Millie. All right. And
- 25:15Speaker 1: maybe hopefully hopefully it applies to you tonight. So the
- 25:18Speaker 1: night I didn't play the showdown slate when I won. Obviously,
- 25:20Speaker 1: I was. I was drinking during the day at my
- 25:24Speaker 1: buddy's kid's birthday party. And then obviously that continued on
- 25:27Speaker 1: to the night. So I'm like, I'm not fucking around
- 25:28Speaker 1: with the late slate, no chance. So I did have
- 25:32Speaker 1: a big party at my house the Monday after. And
- 25:35Speaker 1: for some reason in the morning, I registered for all
- 25:38Speaker 1: the showdown stuff. I'm like, why the hell did I
- 25:41Speaker 1: do that? So I was like, son of a bitch.
- 25:43Speaker 1: So friends, family, everyone started coming over and obviously drinks
- 25:46Speaker 1: started flowing. I'm like, shit, I set an alarm for like,
- 25:50Speaker 1: I don't know, like 745 Eastern, like 30 minutes before
- 25:53Speaker 1: lock is like, I just got to go upstairs and
- 25:54Speaker 1: just fire something in. I think I had like seven
- 25:57Speaker 1: K in action or something. I just had to fill
- 25:58Speaker 1: these lineups. I'm like, at this point, I don't care.
- 26:00Speaker 1: I like, I'll take the loss. I went, went upstairs, uh,
- 26:04Speaker 1: when my office for like five minutes and just fire,
- 26:07Speaker 1: I mean, they probably had to be like the worst
- 26:08Speaker 1: lineups ever. Just fire them, fired them in, ship that
- 26:12Speaker 1: for like, I think it was like 20, 20 some
- 26:14Speaker 1: K ended up winning the slate. So hopefully that happens
- 26:17Speaker 1: for you tonight.
- 26:18Speaker 4: Yeah, that would be great. That would definitely be great.
- 26:21Speaker 3: Hey, we said week eight is going to be great.
- 26:23Speaker 3: I know some people hate this week eight, but it's
- 26:25Speaker 3: not over yet. So you can still get yours tonight,
- 26:27Speaker 3: but very, very great week eight for Mr.
- 26:30Speaker 2: Rio.
- 26:30Speaker 3: So we appreciate you, man. Thank you again for hopping
- 26:32Speaker 3: on and doing this. It's going to be awesome. Yeah.
- 26:35Speaker 4: Thank you guys. Thank you everybody again for reaching out. Um, yeah,
- 26:38Speaker 4: I'll be tuning into the show the rest of the way,
- 26:40Speaker 4: but I'm going to hop out of here and I'll
- 26:41Speaker 4: let you guys.
- 26:42Speaker 1: Get to it.
- 26:42Speaker 4: Nobody wants to hear me yapping anymore. I've gone almost
- 26:44Speaker 4: 30 minutes. I'll let you guys get into the actual breakdowns.
- 26:47Speaker 5: Ride the high for a couple more days.
- 26:48Speaker 2: You deserve it.
- 26:50Speaker 1: Sounds good. All right.
- 26:50Speaker 4: I'll see you guys.
- 26:51Speaker 1: Congrats again.
- 26:52Speaker 3: Thank you so much, man.
- 26:55Speaker 2: All right.
- 26:56Speaker 3: Back to it. Shout out to Rio, man. That's just
- 26:57Speaker 3: an incredible story journey. You know, like title said, I think,
- 27:01Speaker 3: did you mean him saying them? I did in Denver.
- 27:04Speaker 3: Was that the NBA live final in Denver? You were
- 27:06Speaker 3: the one before that.
- 27:07Speaker 5: I was the one actually. Yeah, that was the exact one.
- 27:12Speaker 5: That was the exact one.
- 27:13Speaker 3: So that was sweet. Yeah, so we met him then,
- 27:15Speaker 3: and obviously, you know, you guys have hung out at
- 27:16Speaker 3: a bunch of different events, things like that. I've been fortunate.
- 27:18Speaker 3: Rio took me to a couple different live finals, got
- 27:20Speaker 3: to meet his brother, his dad, his family. Just awesome
- 27:23Speaker 3: all around, dude. What you see is what you get.
- 27:25Speaker 3: I mean, that's a lot of people over at Ship
- 27:27Speaker 3: It Nation, but Rio, truly outstanding. Great TFS player, even
- 27:30Speaker 3: better person. So shout out to him. And just, I mean,
- 27:33Speaker 3: the next day, the morning after, texted me, be like,
- 27:35Speaker 3: let's do this. Like, this guy is awesome, man. Just
- 27:37Speaker 3: love to see that. So, all right. We do have some...
- 27:41Speaker 3: Other things to talk about. I will say just from
- 27:44Speaker 3: a quick note, if you did want to get in
- 27:45Speaker 3: over at the Ship It Nation community, we did launch
- 27:47Speaker 3: the rest of season packages today. So you guys can
- 27:50Speaker 3: check those out. They're over on the site. Go to shipitnation.com.
- 27:53Speaker 3: Just go down to the single sport NFL. There's no
- 27:55Speaker 3: code needed. That is the rest of season right through
- 27:58Speaker 3: Super Bowl. But we do have some showdown to talk about.
- 28:02Speaker 3: Anything else you want to finalize there with the real conversation?
- 28:05Speaker 3: And if not, we can hop right into it. We've
- 28:07Speaker 3: got the Bears at the Seahawks. A fun one for tonight.
- 28:09Speaker 3: Trying to play running back roulette. for this slate, but
- 28:12Speaker 3: anything else there with the Rio interview, if you will.
- 28:15Speaker 1: Oh, I mean, I can talk about it for hours, man.
- 28:17Speaker 1: It's just so exciting to, to see that. And, um,
- 28:21Speaker 1: you know, rooting out, like you said, the main thing,
- 28:22Speaker 1: a lot of people struggle with rooting for, for others.
- 28:25Speaker 1: And I think that's where our, uh, community differentiates itself from,
- 28:30Speaker 1: from basically anywhere else where it's like, man, like everyone's
- 28:33Speaker 1: in there rooting them in. I got my ass kicked yesterday.
- 28:37Speaker 1: I'm sure a lot of other people that were cheering
- 28:39Speaker 1: for him got their ass kicked and they're in there
- 28:42Speaker 1: rooting him, rooting him along to the Millie win. It's just,
- 28:45Speaker 1: it's really cool to see. And again, I mean, I'll
- 28:48Speaker 1: reiterate it. And I'd say the same about you guys
- 28:51Speaker 1: as well that I said about Rio. It's like you
- 28:53Speaker 1: see someone absolutely busting their ass. And that's, I mean,
- 28:57Speaker 1: going back to the Rio thing, when we started this up,
- 29:00Speaker 1: Rio was entitled, you had introduced us to, actually, yeah,
- 29:04Speaker 1: that's how it happened. You introduced us to Rio and
- 29:08Speaker 1: you basically said this guy is the dude. He grinds
- 29:11Speaker 1: his ass off and just a super good person.
- 29:14Speaker 3: Like, sweet.
- 29:15Speaker 1: And met with him once. All right. Now you're the
- 29:18Speaker 1: head of NBA here at Shippen Nation. It was just like,
- 29:21Speaker 1: you know, not like it was like. I guess, love
- 29:23Speaker 1: at first sight, essentially not in that way, but you
- 29:26Speaker 1: know what I mean? From a business, from, from a
- 29:28Speaker 1: business perspective and we were in, and I mean, and
- 29:32Speaker 1: he would start doing the NBA content like the, the
- 29:34Speaker 1: night before. I mean, he was busting his ass and
- 29:39Speaker 1: from the playing side, you know, success. And then it's
- 29:42Speaker 1: hard nowadays. I mean, you don't see a lot of
- 29:44Speaker 1: people continue to get better and better and better. You
- 29:47Speaker 1: see the people that are at the top starting to
- 29:49Speaker 1: come down, come down, come down. He continues to get better, better,
- 29:53Speaker 1: better up there in multiple sports. And, you know, it's the,
- 29:57Speaker 1: the hard work for sure is paying off and you
- 29:58Speaker 1: absolutely love to see it. And just reiterating what I
- 30:01Speaker 1: said before, it's not just DFS applicable. You can apply
- 30:03Speaker 1: this to any aspect of life, whatever you're doing, uh,
- 30:07Speaker 1: training for a sport, you know, trying to get better
- 30:09Speaker 1: at your, your job to get a promotion, whatever it
- 30:11Speaker 1: may be. Um, it's very cool, rewarding and inspiring to see, uh,
- 30:17Speaker 1: someone put in that hard, that much hard work and
- 30:20Speaker 1: accomplish their, their main goals. So, um, We'll have to
- 30:24Speaker 1: see if I said I could, we could talk about this.
- 30:25Speaker 1: I know all three of us could talk about it
- 30:27Speaker 1: for the next hour, hour and a half if we
- 30:29Speaker 1: want to, but we do have football to get to.
- 30:31Speaker 1: So we can kind of leave it on that note.
- 30:33Speaker 1: If you guys want, we can get into the football.
- 30:35Speaker 3: Yeah. All, all of that was amazing. The, the big
- 30:38Speaker 3: extra takeaway, the bonus line for me was just take
- 30:41Speaker 3: titles advice on everything. Cause it's always been good. I
- 30:44Speaker 3: can't imagine. I can't remember first. I've known title for
- 30:46Speaker 3: a long time as well. Like you said, we'd say
- 30:47Speaker 3: the same thing for everybody on this panel, but I
- 30:50Speaker 3: don't know. any bad advice the title's ever given me.
- 30:52Speaker 3: And then people just re solidified good advice that he's
- 30:55Speaker 3: been giving them with Rio talking about the highs and
- 30:57Speaker 3: the lows. Love that. And then, um, you know, him
- 30:59Speaker 3: introducing us to Rio and saying like, this is the,
- 31:01Speaker 3: you'll put a bet on this guy, basically, but that's not,
- 31:03Speaker 3: don't go against titles bets very often either. So title,
- 31:08Speaker 3: you want to talk about there further? If not, let's
- 31:10Speaker 3: get to this bear Seahawks game.
- 31:11Speaker 1: We'll get it rolled.
- 31:12Speaker 2: I got to start tailing Rio more.
- 31:14Speaker 5: His bets are a little better than my bets, but no,
- 31:16Speaker 5: I mean, I knew right when you asked the question,
- 31:18Speaker 5: I knew what he was going to say. Cause I, Yeah,
- 31:20Speaker 5: I mean, as a gambler, as anything, when you have
- 31:23Speaker 5: money in the game and you lose more than you win,
- 31:25Speaker 5: that's the nature of what we play. Don't get too
- 31:28Speaker 5: high on your highs. Don't get too low on your lows.
- 31:30Speaker 5: I think that's great life advice for many of things. Yeah,
- 31:33Speaker 5: get a little higher than you usually would have, not literally,
- 31:36Speaker 5: whatever you want to do.
- 31:37Speaker 3: Some people limit it.
- 31:38Speaker 5: Yeah, exactly. I don't win this big. But I think
- 31:41Speaker 5: it's very important. And, hey, I mean, I'm human. I
- 31:44Speaker 5: have to remind myself, week two or week three, it's like,
- 31:47Speaker 5: all right, dial back in.
- 31:48Speaker 2: Listen to your own advice.
- 31:49Speaker 5: And yeah, just really happy two people hoop and a
- 31:53Speaker 5: real Millie makers.
- 31:54Speaker 2: You were almost there, Tambo. I think you're next.
- 31:56Speaker 5: Cause you play a little more of that stuff than me,
- 31:59Speaker 5: but maybe one day all of us will get there.
- 32:01Speaker 3: That's the key, man. Just got to keep playing the game.
- 32:02Speaker 3: That's the fun in it. So yeah, we're right back
- 32:05Speaker 3: to the grind. Weekend is not over. We've got a
- 32:07Speaker 3: football game tonight. It is Monday night football. We've got
- 32:09Speaker 3: the bears at the Seahawks, a little bit of running
- 32:12Speaker 3: back roulette. We're going to talk about that with the
- 32:14Speaker 3: Seahawks with, Charbonnet and Price and Wilson and Helani and whatever.
- 32:18Speaker 3: We'll see who's inactive and what ends up happening once
- 32:20Speaker 3: we get closer to the game, but really can't build
- 32:22Speaker 3: much till we get there, but we'll break it down.
- 32:24Speaker 3: Other than that here, a lot of injuries to the
- 32:26Speaker 3: Seahawks side for guys that are out. So we'll talk with,
- 32:28Speaker 3: you know, Shahid, Belus Jones, already we're out of Royo.
- 32:31Speaker 3: There's a bunch of guys out on that side, but Hoop,
- 32:34Speaker 3: give us your grand scheme overview here for this slate.
- 32:35Speaker 3: We've got Bears at the Seahawks.
- 32:37Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 32:38Speaker 1: I mean, you look at it and you got, you know,
- 32:40Speaker 1: probably one of the best offenses in football in the
- 32:42Speaker 1: Bears traveling to I don't know, probably the best defense
- 32:46Speaker 1: in the NFL. I mean, the Seahawks defense is no joke.
- 32:50Speaker 1: Just shut down the Chiefs. I mean, they're very, very good. So,
- 32:54Speaker 1: you know, what gives here is truly the big question.
- 32:57Speaker 1: But for DFS, you know, it is somewhat difficult from
- 33:01Speaker 1: the standpoint of, you know, usually when we play DFS
- 33:03Speaker 1: on the full slates, like you're picking on the bad defenses.
- 33:06Speaker 1: You don't really want to pick players against the good defenses,
- 33:09Speaker 1: but we have showdown here. So we're forced to kind
- 33:11Speaker 1: of go against the really good defenses. In the Seahawks.
- 33:15Speaker 1: I mean, the one thing that definitely stands out to
- 33:17Speaker 1: me is making the case for captains tonight, because it
- 33:20Speaker 1: is very difficult. You look at the projections and, you know,
- 33:24Speaker 1: JSN is going to be way above everyone else in
- 33:27Speaker 1: terms of projections on the slate. And again, making the
- 33:31Speaker 1: case for other guys is pretty difficult. So I think
- 33:34Speaker 1: that is really where the challenge lies on the slate. Like,
- 33:38Speaker 1: what do you do at the captain position? And then,
- 33:41Speaker 1: like you said, we have, you know, Seahawks now running
- 33:44Speaker 1: multiple running backs. We have the injury with Shahid. So
- 33:49Speaker 1: looking forward to this game for sure. But again, the
- 33:51Speaker 1: challenging part here for showdown is, you know, what do
- 33:54Speaker 1: we do at captain?
- 33:55Speaker 3: Yeah, we've got to see, again, some of the news
- 33:58Speaker 3: when it will come out. But like you said, we
- 33:59Speaker 3: definitely don't have one of those balanced captain slates tonight.
- 34:02Speaker 3: It is JSN heavy up top. I mean, there are
- 34:05Speaker 3: three and a half point favorites. It's not like they're
- 34:07Speaker 3: mass favorites here against Chicago. We'll see what Chicago does tonight.
- 34:10Speaker 3: They bolstered up, right? They got Jeffrey Simmons this last week.
- 34:13Speaker 3: So trying to get their defense in line a little
- 34:15Speaker 3: bit more. It's saying that he should play tonight and
- 34:18Speaker 3: could be held in check a little bit from a
- 34:20Speaker 3: full workload. But just coming across with all the trade stuff.
- 34:23Speaker 3: But we'll see how that all shakes out. Title, your
- 34:25Speaker 3: first thoughts. here on this game. And then we'll get
- 34:27Speaker 3: right into the captain conversation. Yeah.
- 34:29Speaker 5: The captain thing, obviously very, I mean, you know where
- 34:33Speaker 5: it's going. The other thing that stood out to me,
- 34:35Speaker 5: only three point favorites are the Seahawks, but I mean,
- 34:38Speaker 5: field's going to build like their 10 point favorites. Now,
- 34:41Speaker 5: the reason for that is the value, no rich or
- 34:43Speaker 5: no Shahid, but you don't think probably is too important,
- 34:46Speaker 5: but on a slate that's relatively tight in pricing and
- 34:49Speaker 5: you need value wide receiver to Cooper cup, 4,800 Torrey Horton,
- 34:53Speaker 5: wide receiver three, 2,800.
- 34:55Speaker 2: A.J. Barner steps into even bigger role, 4,600.
- 34:57Speaker 5: Where you go to the Bears side, clear running back one, Swift, expensive.
- 35:03Speaker 2: Burden, Odunze, expensive. Loveland, expensive.
- 35:06Speaker 5: The only one that's like okay to click, Kalief Raymond,
- 35:09Speaker 5: maybe Roshon Johnson, but it's going to be a lot
- 35:12Speaker 5: of four twos, even five one Seahawks more than you
- 35:14Speaker 5: think when you just look at the spread.
- 35:16Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree on that heavily. And it's also just
- 35:18Speaker 3: because it also it feels cleaner. Like people build it out.
- 35:21Speaker 3: They're already going to want JSA. And if you can
- 35:22Speaker 3: put those guys in it and the other thing too,
- 35:24Speaker 3: on the Seahawks side, and we'll get to it when
- 35:26Speaker 3: we go position by position to the running back stuff.
- 35:28Speaker 3: But when people don't feel comfortable about that, even when
- 35:31Speaker 3: the news comes out and we have everything, the final
- 35:33Speaker 3: stuff within actives and everything, people will still be trying
- 35:36Speaker 3: to look for a way to just move past that.
- 35:38Speaker 3: When you have cup Horton Barner as the fill-ins there,
- 35:41Speaker 3: I think that's what makes for those builds. And you
- 35:42Speaker 3: said it right. They're building like it's 10 point favorites
- 35:45Speaker 3: or something. So yeah, Hoop, I'll start with you on
- 35:47Speaker 3: the captains. We know JSN, we're pushing, you know, 25
- 35:51Speaker 3: to 30% up there pretty easily, I think with him.
- 35:54Speaker 3: But after that, I mean, not many Chicago captains outside
- 35:57Speaker 3: of Swift, even on the Seahawks side, it's Darnold is
- 36:00Speaker 3: popping up. Not sure if you did a dry run yet,
- 36:02Speaker 3: but it is kind of looking like, you know, JSN, Darnold, Swift,
- 36:06Speaker 3: and then maybe, you know, a couple of different places
- 36:08Speaker 3: after that, but not too much that people want to
- 36:11Speaker 3: move to differently. What are you doing here?
- 36:13Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll get us a dry run build as well
- 36:17Speaker 1: so we can kind of talk through it. But like
- 36:20Speaker 1: I said, it's difficult up top. I mean, JSN has
- 36:23Speaker 1: the massive projection way higher than everyone else really on
- 36:28Speaker 1: the slate. So the challenging thing is like, who do
- 36:32Speaker 1: you play outside of him up top? And I definitely
- 36:35Speaker 1: want him. I want to be overweight on him. And
- 36:38Speaker 1: we're showing the ownership to be 25%. And I think
- 36:43Speaker 1: needs putting the common in there. It is restrictive. If
- 36:47Speaker 1: you go with him up top.
- 36:48Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 36:48Speaker 1: I mean, he's expensive, so you do have to make
- 36:51Speaker 1: some sacrifices. So what do you do after him? The
- 36:55Speaker 1: one I don't like is the one that's getting the
- 36:58Speaker 1: next most ownership it looks like. And that is Deandre Swift.
- 37:01Speaker 1: Like I do not want to play Deandre Swift up top.
- 37:03Speaker 1: I hope that is the case. I mean, this Seahawks
- 37:06Speaker 1: run defense is, Really, really good. And I just I
- 37:09Speaker 1: don't have much interest playing him up top. I'll go
- 37:11Speaker 1: with the pass catchers over him. So I hope that
- 37:14Speaker 1: holds true where Swift is the second most popular because
- 37:17Speaker 1: I'll play Burden, Loveland, Caleb Williams. I'll play those guys
- 37:22Speaker 1: over Swift, kind of get easily get overweight on all
- 37:25Speaker 1: those other guys and just pass on Swift. So my
- 37:28Speaker 1: initial plan is heavy JSN, some Burden, some Loveland, and
- 37:33Speaker 1: then some Caleb Williams. And that is honestly probably it.
- 37:36Speaker 1: I'm probably just cut it off at that point and
- 37:38Speaker 1: just roll with those four or five guys. I'm not
- 37:44Speaker 1: playing Darnold up top. If Darnold has a big game,
- 37:47Speaker 1: it most likely goes all through JSN, and you're just
- 37:49Speaker 1: going to need JSN up top. So I'm going to
- 37:52Speaker 1: keep it pretty tight. JSN, Caleb, Burden, and Loveland is
- 37:57Speaker 1: what I'm looking at.
- 37:59Speaker 3: Title, what's your thoughts there? Because already, you know, sparking
- 38:01Speaker 3: conversations in the YouTube chat about the quarterbacks, which we'll
- 38:05Speaker 3: get there later. But just in general, JSN, your thoughts
- 38:09Speaker 3: there and then where you can move to from there
- 38:11Speaker 3: to different positions, different options, I should say, at the
- 38:13Speaker 3: captain spot.
- 38:15Speaker 5: Yeah, I love JSN for sure. No hot take. Yesterday, Daniels, though,
- 38:18Speaker 5: I think he was like 34%. I had like 50-something
- 38:21Speaker 5: at captain. Didn't work out, but I'm fine. It just
- 38:24Speaker 5: shows I'm fine getting well overweight, even if they are
- 38:27Speaker 5: mega chalk. Definitely on different sides with Swift, though. He's
- 38:30Speaker 5: my second favorite. He's minus 110 to score, which is
- 38:33Speaker 5: tied with JSN for the most in the game. The
- 38:36Speaker 5: next highest is Charbonnet, plus 135. Then you're in the
- 38:39Speaker 5: plus 200 range. He's also like minus 185 to catch
- 38:43Speaker 5: three passes. So I think there's a lot of different
- 38:45Speaker 5: outs for Swift to get there last week without Mnangai,
- 38:48Speaker 5: who obviously is out again. 86% of snaps. You give
- 38:52Speaker 5: me any talented running back that's playing that much and
- 38:55Speaker 5: can catch pass out of the backfield. by far my
- 38:57Speaker 5: second favorite. Kale Williams, my third favorite, can use his legs,
- 39:01Speaker 5: can throw it to different options. I already mentioned Swift, Burden, Loveland, Adunze.
- 39:05Speaker 5: Not hard to see him being optimal. Then yeah, it
- 39:08Speaker 5: falls off for me after that. Good with Burden. I
- 39:11Speaker 5: am fine with Sam Darnold. Just hoping that Ben Johnson,
- 39:14Speaker 5: and I know Ben Johnson's the offense of mine, but
- 39:17Speaker 5: you'd be silly to think he's not in defensive meetings
- 39:19Speaker 5: or at least, all right, it's clear. JSN's the guy.
- 39:22Speaker 5: How can we try and slow him down a little bit?
- 39:24Speaker 5: So I'm hoping that especially because Torrey Horton's going to
- 39:28Speaker 5: be owned, Barner's going to be owned, Cup's going to
- 39:29Speaker 5: be owned a little bit. How do you get different
- 39:32Speaker 5: with that? I think Darnold, that captain, I'm not even
- 39:35Speaker 5: necessarily sure I believe 9%. People just don't love playing
- 39:39Speaker 5: Sam Darnold, that captain, when they just know it's JSN.
- 39:41Speaker 5: So I would say Darnold number four, kind of with Burden,
- 39:45Speaker 5: but I'm going to keep it tight. JSN, Swift, for sure,
- 39:48Speaker 5: my favorites, and Caleb after that.
- 39:50Speaker 3: Yeah, I think we got to convince Hoop because I'm
- 39:53Speaker 3: going to go with that title advice again. And we
- 39:55Speaker 3: got to try and convince him to this because I
- 39:57Speaker 3: think it's really interesting. Like what Hoop said is right.
- 39:59Speaker 3: It's hard to run on them. I'm more thinking it's
- 40:01Speaker 3: going to be like dump off, dump off, dump off.
- 40:03Speaker 3: And then he is talented and capable. You look at
- 40:06Speaker 3: the stone over at Ship It Nation. Look at the
- 40:09Speaker 3: captain's ceilings. They're not as far apart as one might think.
- 40:13Speaker 3: And you could say, well, I believe it's actually this.
- 40:14Speaker 3: That's true and fair that you could make that statement.
- 40:18Speaker 3: But also then it's built into the 14, seven at
- 40:21Speaker 3: the captain as opposed to 18. And then to Nate's point,
- 40:24Speaker 3: which I do like is a lot of the, you
- 40:27Speaker 3: can say we're, we're all going to have a ton
- 40:28Speaker 3: of JSN. Everybody is, but there's only so many ways
- 40:30Speaker 3: that we can actually get different once you go there. So, um,
- 40:34Speaker 3: and I don't think also I will bring this up
- 40:36Speaker 3: quickly too. I think it was nuance had it in there.
- 40:40Speaker 3: Still more sneaky than most, because people watching this are
- 40:43Speaker 3: more dialed into the bubble than the people that aren't.
- 40:45Speaker 3: Most people that just put JSN on top immediately put
- 40:47Speaker 3: Darnold in. But just so you know, optimizers with good
- 40:50Speaker 3: data and good stuff that are doing it tonight, they
- 40:54Speaker 3: know that you don't need Darnold in the flex with JSN.
- 40:57Speaker 3: So you're not going to get as far ahead as
- 41:00Speaker 3: you think. It's definitely still a good move, because like
- 41:02Speaker 3: we said, we're in a bubble. But I do think
- 41:04Speaker 3: that's somewhat interesting too. So there's only so many ways...
- 41:06Speaker 3: that you can get different there. So we will have
- 41:08Speaker 3: to play others. So what do you think, Coop? A
- 41:10Speaker 3: little more swift, we can get them into your pool?
- 41:12Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, maybe. I just, I don't know. This
- 41:16Speaker 1: run defense is super, super legit. And I can see
- 41:20Speaker 1: him like 20 carries for like 70 yards and two
- 41:23Speaker 1: catches for like 10 yards or something. I'm just, I
- 41:26Speaker 1: don't love it. I mean, but.
- 41:29Speaker 3: Maybe he could still be good at those numbers.
- 41:30Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe.
- 41:31Speaker 3: What do you think the final score? We always ask
- 41:33Speaker 3: to chat this, but I'm curious from your perspective, Hoop, here. Like,
- 41:37Speaker 3: it's really tricky for me to put my finger on
- 41:39Speaker 3: that one. It's like a 40. It's a higher total
- 41:41Speaker 3: than I would have expected.
- 41:42Speaker 1: Same, yeah. Yeah, same.
- 41:44Speaker 3: You could go back and forth, but what do you
- 41:45Speaker 3: think the total, what do you think the final game
- 41:47Speaker 3: score is something like, or what type of score could
- 41:49Speaker 3: you see roughly?
- 41:50Speaker 1: The range of outcomes to me is just very large
- 41:54Speaker 1: in this game internally. I could see it being like
- 41:55Speaker 1: 13 to 10, and I could see it being like,
- 41:58Speaker 1: 35 to 30 or so i mean i could see
- 42:01Speaker 1: it all over the map i guess i i really
- 42:03Speaker 1: struggle to to you know pinpoint where it's going to
- 42:07Speaker 1: be i mean it could be anywhere so um i
- 42:10Speaker 1: don't know i don't have a good answer that's why.
- 42:12Speaker 3: I asked but i was just curious because it does
- 42:14Speaker 3: kind of to me tie a little bit more to
- 42:16Speaker 3: the swift stuff you can play swift than anything i
- 42:18Speaker 3: get it like but but title are you thinking high
- 42:20Speaker 3: score low score you're just on first glance what are
- 42:23Speaker 3: you thinking If.
- 42:24Speaker 2: I had to bet, I'd bet the over.
- 42:26Speaker 5: But 28-24, I'll say something like that, which is a
- 42:29Speaker 5: good bet over or good. It's well over the over
- 42:33Speaker 5: the 46 and a half. But no confidence. I'm not
- 42:36Speaker 5: putting my heart and money on it. So take it
- 42:38Speaker 5: with a grain of salt.
- 42:39Speaker 1: Go ahead. No, I was going to be separate from that.
- 42:43Speaker 1: I was just going to.
- 42:44Speaker 3: Say quickly, they just heard us all say, take titles advice.
- 42:46Speaker 3: And now the sports books are just getting crushed with
- 42:49Speaker 3: exact score.
- 42:49Speaker 4: 28, 24.
- 42:50Speaker 2: I'll do that.
- 42:52Speaker 3: To the maximum level. Now, like, Hey, they say that
- 42:54Speaker 3: bet every bet he bets, but go ahead.
- 42:56Speaker 1: Sorry. I was going to say one thing you guys
- 42:58Speaker 1: brought up that I think that is definitely important is
- 43:00Speaker 1: if you do play a JSN captain, do not think
- 43:03Speaker 1: that your next click needs to be Sam Darnold flux.
- 43:06Speaker 1: Like I don't think you need that at all. And
- 43:08Speaker 1: a lot of people just do that by nature. If
- 43:11Speaker 1: they're playing a, captain pass catcher, they think they have
- 43:15Speaker 1: to put in the quarterback. And a lot of times
- 43:17Speaker 1: it's the right move. Like it definitely is the right
- 43:19Speaker 1: move more times than not. But tonight, I don't think
- 43:22Speaker 1: it's a necessity. I actually like it better with, you know,
- 43:26Speaker 1: JSN up top and Caleb in there over Sam Darnold.
- 43:30Speaker 3: Yeah, definitely a good way to go about it. And
- 43:31Speaker 3: I think just go back to captains for a second,
- 43:34Speaker 3: because just using the Caleb conversation as well as if
- 43:36Speaker 3: you don't, you know, if you want to get different altogether,
- 43:39Speaker 3: if people are on JSN, they're on Darnold, JSN lineups
- 43:42Speaker 3: lead to Torrey Hortons and Barners and all those guys
- 43:45Speaker 3: down there. We know what Darnold lineups lead to, JSN,
- 43:49Speaker 3: and then still down there with those guys because if
- 43:50Speaker 3: you're putting him, you're going to want to put multiple
- 43:52Speaker 3: pass catchers in. So it's like at least one of
- 43:53Speaker 3: those two probably with JSN. If you go Swift up top,
- 43:57Speaker 3: those guys can still be used on the run back
- 43:59Speaker 3: because you get JSN. And then once you go Swift, JSN,
- 44:01Speaker 3: and whatever else, you're probably running out of money too.
- 44:04Speaker 3: If you go Caleb up top, that's where you can
- 44:07Speaker 3: start getting into the Kalief Raymonds of the world and
- 44:10Speaker 3: all of the stuff that are literally flipping that build
- 44:12Speaker 3: up some for you. So I do think Caleb is
- 44:15Speaker 3: interesting up there. He's not DeAndre Swift. He's not Darnold
- 44:18Speaker 3: on the opposite side, up, up, down, all around. However,
- 44:20Speaker 3: the game goes over or under, I think it could
- 44:23Speaker 3: still make sense and gets you a bit of a
- 44:24Speaker 3: more unique build. And then the only other thing is like,
- 44:27Speaker 3: nobody really wants these guys, but you know, burden Odunze, uh,
- 44:32Speaker 3: I don't know. I just, anything on those guys title,
- 44:35Speaker 3: if you think about flipping it some or like a two, four, or,
- 44:38Speaker 3: you know, we talk about it all the time, like
- 44:39Speaker 3: go doomsday up top or burden up top with Caleb
- 44:41Speaker 3: and then other side. Is there any interest in any
- 44:43Speaker 3: of that that you can think of?
- 44:45Speaker 2: Definitely burden.
- 44:46Speaker 5: I mean, his upset, we just saw, was it like
- 44:48Speaker 5: two showdown game slates or like, like he just absolutely nuked.
- 44:51Speaker 5: He's I know a doomsday is out snapping them. And
- 44:54Speaker 5: a doomsday is look closer to burden this year than
- 44:57Speaker 5: I expected coming into the year. But it still feels
- 44:59Speaker 5: like if someone's a, someone not named JSN or Swift
- 45:03Speaker 5: is the leading or Caleb or whatever, not the leading
- 45:05Speaker 5: score on the slate. Burden feels like he has the
- 45:07Speaker 5: most 120 yard, two touchdown upside. So he'd be the
- 45:11Speaker 5: guy of the most interest in, if you're playing a
- 45:13Speaker 5: bunch of teams, sure. You can play Loveland and Dunesay. Heck,
- 45:16Speaker 5: we just saw fricking whatever the Stevens or whatever the
- 45:19Speaker 5: kicker was captain optimal yesterday. So when, when that happens,
- 45:23Speaker 5: usually it's lower scoring games or yeah, just blow it
- 45:26Speaker 5: or something.
- 45:27Speaker 2: But yeah, hopefully we don't get that today.
- 45:29Speaker 3: Yeah, it could be a spot tonight if it is
- 45:31Speaker 3: the under type of game where you don't need, like
- 45:33Speaker 3: somebody said in the chat, the first prophet said, don't
- 45:35Speaker 3: need any quarterbacks. We'll get to that in a second.
- 45:37Speaker 3: I will say this, though, too. People get this stuff
- 45:39Speaker 3: confused all the time. This could be a great bet.
- 45:43Speaker 3: And then Swift could still be needed in DFS tonight.
- 45:46Speaker 3: Like it's just how people view stuff. Well, if he's
- 45:48Speaker 3: not going to rush for 60 yards, he's not going
- 45:50Speaker 3: to be useful at all. We don't know yet. And like,
- 45:52Speaker 3: if it was an under and he caught a bunch
- 45:53Speaker 3: of passes and got the touchdowns, he could have 48 yards,
- 45:56Speaker 3: have two touchdowns, just the way it works. Odunze get,
- 45:59Speaker 3: you know, um, dpis and stuff like that and he
- 46:02Speaker 3: gets these touchdowns that way it's like yeah if you
- 46:04Speaker 3: say yesterday people always view that and they always go
- 46:06Speaker 3: to the negative outlook of it okay you say yesterday
- 46:09Speaker 3: the buccaneers are going to complete zero passes today oh
- 46:12Speaker 3: man i gotta go bad against them there's no way
- 46:14Speaker 3: they're going to win the game if they're not going
- 46:16Speaker 3: to complete any passes well actually they won 16 it
- 46:18Speaker 3: was a shutout i think 16.
- 46:20Speaker 5: Yeah 16 nothing one of the craziest stat lines of
- 46:23Speaker 5: all time i mean man weather i don't want to
- 46:26Speaker 5: get into that stuff but man it's gosh i i
- 46:29Speaker 5: should have wanted to be a meteorologist and then play
- 46:31Speaker 5: dfs on weather slates because yeah if i knew i.
- 46:35Speaker 3: Think you're making more than the dfs meteorologist make.
- 46:37Speaker 5: I guess man if i knew it was gonna look
- 46:39Speaker 5: like that i could have made all my i could
- 46:41Speaker 5: have made a million betting yesterday and uh and that
- 46:44Speaker 5: that's that was wild so tilting yeah.
- 46:47Speaker 3: All right it's too good all right um one thing
- 46:52Speaker 3: about the quarterbacks is usually we just say this and like,
- 46:53Speaker 3: we literally just talked about them and captain and we've
- 46:55Speaker 3: been trying to like gear it when we get to
- 46:57Speaker 3: the position by position to the flex today, at least
- 47:00Speaker 3: is somewhat interesting hoop already kind of mentioned it. So hoop,
- 47:03Speaker 3: I'll stay with you. But like the idea of the
- 47:04Speaker 3: chat mentioned it, you mentioned it. You could definitely just
- 47:06Speaker 3: run a JSN up top. Um, no quarterback shit. We
- 47:10Speaker 3: saw a Mackay lemon one five the other night with
- 47:12Speaker 3: no quarterback in the flex or last week or whatever
- 47:15Speaker 3: it was. And so, you know, anything is possible in
- 47:17Speaker 3: that perspective, but on this slate more so than others.
- 47:20Speaker 3: And especially if you saw a game that did, get
- 47:22Speaker 3: some defense back and forth and play to the under
- 47:24Speaker 3: you could see it where there's no quarterbacks needed at
- 47:27Speaker 3: all do you think you'll run any lineups we joke
- 47:29Speaker 3: about double kicker hoop and double d's and all that
- 47:31Speaker 3: stuff but any thoughts on no qbs i think it's.
- 47:37Speaker 1: Yeah it has a chance i think i'm a little
- 47:39Speaker 1: distracted though by the weather i know i'm kind of
- 47:41Speaker 1: curious what was i don't want to i don't want
- 47:43Speaker 1: to dunk on someone but what What was the weather
- 47:46Speaker 1: rating for that game?
- 47:48Speaker 2: Yeah, not high enough.
- 47:53Speaker 1: Yeah, as soon as the game comes on, it's like
- 47:55Speaker 1: a freaking hurricane. So it's like, okay.
- 47:57Speaker 2: And again, I'm not trying to go after it.
- 48:00Speaker 1: No, no, but it's like.
- 48:02Speaker 2: Because I follow him every time. I could do my
- 48:06Speaker 2: own research.
- 48:07Speaker 1: Yeah, it goes back to the main point, though.
- 48:09Speaker 2: It's like, man.
- 48:10Speaker 1: Like, what's the saying? You had one job, man.
- 48:14Speaker 5: I wish I didn't even bring anything up because I
- 48:16Speaker 5: have followed him for many of years and he's done
- 48:19Speaker 5: me a lot more right than bad. So I'm not
- 48:22Speaker 5: here to, I just, I wish I did my own research.
- 48:26Speaker 5: And yeah, because if that was the case, yeah, you could,
- 48:28Speaker 5: I mean, special prediction markets nowadays, you can get as
- 48:31Speaker 5: much money possible down. And there was no chance you
- 48:33Speaker 5: could see first drive that that ball was getting thrown
- 48:36Speaker 5: in the air.
- 48:36Speaker 2: There's no third and nines were handoffs. Shout out Bucky Irving.
- 48:40Speaker 2: That dude is a monster.
- 48:41Speaker 1: Yeah, he was a beast. But if you had proper
- 48:44Speaker 1: info on that game, we could have hit the Millie alongside.
- 48:48Speaker 1: We could have hit it alongside Rio without even winning.
- 48:51Speaker 2: Less of a sweat.
- 48:53Speaker 1: Way less of a sweat.
- 48:56Speaker 3: Hoop got so distracted.
- 48:57Speaker 1: I didn't even know your question.
- 48:59Speaker 2: I caught the last three words.
- 49:01Speaker 1: Hopefully it was a sufficient answer. I don't know.
- 49:05Speaker 3: The chat's backing him up now. Our boy Hamhock said
- 49:07Speaker 3: he said that he was going to downpour on Twitter
- 49:10Speaker 3: before kickoff. So I guess title, it stands for taking
- 49:14Speaker 3: the latest expectations t-i-t-l-e taking the latest expectations you.
- 49:19Speaker 5: Gotta look at that my fault i'll take the blame
- 49:22Speaker 5: for i'm not blaming anybody i can do my own
- 49:24Speaker 5: research and i didn't do it so.
- 49:26Speaker 3: You can stay boys now you can stay homies with.
- 49:28Speaker 5: Your guy yeah i mean he knows he doesn't even
- 49:30Speaker 5: probably know who the heck i am so You always.
- 49:33Speaker 3: Do in the shout-out, though, which is appreciated. You're never
- 49:36Speaker 3: going to say anything bad about anyone, and you're still not,
- 49:38Speaker 3: which is amazing. So we're good with it. What we
- 49:42Speaker 3: were talking about, Hoop, was these quarterbacks. And everyone wants
- 49:45Speaker 3: to talk about the running backs anyway, so we'll get
- 49:47Speaker 3: there soon. But it was just about on this slate,
- 49:49Speaker 3: you could swap two QBs possibly for double Ds and
- 49:54Speaker 3: get two defenses in there instead and play to the
- 49:57Speaker 3: under and just get no quarterbacks at all and just
- 49:59Speaker 3: rack it up that way. What do you think?
- 50:01Speaker 1: I'm down a rabbit hole now. I'm fully, I'm fine.
- 50:04Speaker 3: He's double checking, man.
- 50:06Speaker 1: I'm locked back in. I say it one more time.
- 50:12Speaker 3: We'll go to title on this one. Title. Do you
- 50:16Speaker 3: think you would build some lineups tonight with no quarterbacks
- 50:19Speaker 3: at all?
- 50:23Speaker 5: Yes, but when you do, you're definitely playing to the under.
- 50:26Speaker 5: I'm almost definitely playing JSN. I'm almost definitely playing DeAndre Swift.
- 50:32Speaker 5: I almost want a price or Charbonnet, which aren't the
- 50:34Speaker 5: most comfortable clicks, but you're pretty much saying that they're
- 50:37Speaker 5: all pretty much rushing touchdowns or lower, probably almost at
- 50:41Speaker 5: least one defense. And then almost maybe at least one kicker.
- 50:45Speaker 5: I wouldn't do the kicker thing for sure. No quarterbacks though.
- 50:47Speaker 4: 10.
- 50:48Speaker 5: You typically do want a defense in there. At least one,
- 50:52Speaker 5: you would have to think that Swift or Charbonnet price
- 50:55Speaker 5: or getting rushing touchdowns instead of throwing. And then JSN,
- 50:58Speaker 5: just a PPR monster. So I could, I could see
- 51:00Speaker 5: it in this game. I think I'm more worried about Caleb.
- 51:04Speaker 5: I'd rather Seahawks defense, I think, because Caleb just has
- 51:06Speaker 5: so many outs with his legs that 11 points still
- 51:10Speaker 5: could be optimal at there. So I'll have some.
- 51:13Speaker 2: It's always tough for me, though. But yeah, today's a
- 51:16Speaker 2: slate where I could totally see it. What about you?
- 51:18Speaker 3: We're only slightly removed from Halloween. So, you know, we
- 51:20Speaker 3: could see some ghosts. That's, that's Sam Darnold. If we
- 51:23Speaker 3: get the bears D on the other side, but who's
- 51:26Speaker 3: still digging for carrots over there. I don't have any money, any,
- 51:29Speaker 3: any more to really add on the quarterback stuff, but
- 51:31Speaker 3: I will say you mentioned price and Charbonnet. So I'll
- 51:34Speaker 3: let you segue it into that. Unless who has his findings.
- 51:37Speaker 2: He, No, we don't need his findings. Let's go. Let's
- 51:40Speaker 2: move on to running back.
- 51:41Speaker 5: I should have never brought it up.
- 51:43Speaker 3: I love title, man. He's just too nice.
- 51:45Speaker 1: Okay.
- 51:45Speaker 3: Keep going.
- 51:46Speaker 2: Keep going.
- 51:47Speaker 3: There is a conversation to be had here. You got
- 51:49Speaker 3: the props. You're looking at the boards. They're hiding some
- 51:51Speaker 3: of them because they're not even sure if Yeah. But
- 51:53Speaker 3: how do you really see this playing out? It was like,
- 51:55Speaker 3: so price is off the IR, but still could do
- 51:58Speaker 3: whatever they want with him. They've got Emmanuel Wilson. They
- 52:00Speaker 3: have Halani who's been running routes and catching passes and
- 52:03Speaker 3: doing all this stuff. And then they're missing guys that are,
- 52:05Speaker 3: they usually have catching passes. And then you've also got
- 52:08Speaker 3: Sharps who's off the ACL, but you know, expected to
- 52:12Speaker 3: be back and good to go, but are they going
- 52:13Speaker 3: to ease them in? Like, how do you see this
- 52:14Speaker 3: playing out on the Seahawks side for starters?
- 52:17Speaker 5: I think Emmanuel Wilson's played good enough for sure where
- 52:20Speaker 5: he's going to be in the rotation as well. You
- 52:23Speaker 5: really can't take him off the field all game. Price
- 52:26Speaker 5: coming back his first week, Charbonnet coming back his first week.
- 52:29Speaker 5: I'm going to agree with props and just think Charbonnet
- 52:31Speaker 5: is their goal linebacker. He's plus 135, where you have
- 52:34Speaker 5: Emmanuel Wilson and Price both plus 350, which leads me
- 52:39Speaker 5: to Charbonnet probably be my favorite just for that reason.
- 52:43Speaker 5: Price looked good before he... got injured, but they were
- 52:46Speaker 5: very hesitant. Like the first game of the year, like
- 52:48Speaker 5: he was crushing and they just did not want to
- 52:50Speaker 5: feed him the ball. So I'm very nervous about price
- 52:53Speaker 5: at his price. So yeah, I plan on being underweight him.
- 52:58Speaker 5: Emmanuel Wilson's just so low owned. What are we showing
- 53:00Speaker 5: right now? 5% him, whereas it's 20% price and 21 Charbonnet.
- 53:05Speaker 5: I'd rank him Charbonnet Wilson price today. And I'm confident
- 53:10Speaker 5: that sharps the goal line back, but at these prices,
- 53:12Speaker 5: like they're seven, four or seven, four Wilson, seven K
- 53:15Speaker 5: Charbonnet six, four price. They need to really do something.
- 53:18Speaker 5: And that's why their ownership is going to be really low.
- 53:20Speaker 5: I like a more non QB lineups. Like we're talking
- 53:24Speaker 5: if lower scoring games, if you see it that way,
- 53:26Speaker 5: Charbonnet is definitely my favorite though. Again, mainly because I
- 53:29Speaker 5: think he has the goal line equity on the bear side.
- 53:33Speaker 5: I definitely need Roshan Johnson at 3,400 too. We're talking
- 53:36Speaker 5: about how bad the value is, especially on the bear side.
- 53:39Speaker 5: 8% owned. Again, Swift did play a lot last week. 84,
- 53:43Speaker 5: 86% to 14% of snaps. But I didn't think Roshan
- 53:47Speaker 5: looked too bad so far in some of his carries.
- 53:50Speaker 5: And especially if Seattle does stuff, DeAndre Swift or make
- 53:53Speaker 5: it tough on him, maybe Ben Johnson wants a little
- 53:55Speaker 5: change of pace. So to be honest, at ownership in
- 53:58Speaker 5: the flex, I think Roshan might be my favorite. But
- 54:00Speaker 5: it also gets away from the 5-1, the 4-2 Seahawks
- 54:03Speaker 5: more and gets you on 3-3 stuff or maybe 4-2
- 54:05Speaker 5: Bears more. And he fits that a lot easier because
- 54:08Speaker 5: you're getting away from the Hortons of the world.
- 54:11Speaker 3: So we've got to figure out here. Tyler, tell us
- 54:12Speaker 3: what to do with this running back spot. He says,
- 54:14Speaker 3: got to think Seattle. This is interesting to me, though,
- 54:16Speaker 3: because he says, got to think Seattle wants to get
- 54:18Speaker 3: the run game going to ease the workload off JSN.
- 54:20Speaker 3: And Darnold Sharps also has decent pass catching ability. Yeah,
- 54:24Speaker 3: you know, all makes sense. The one big thing. for
- 54:27Speaker 3: me with this is like, this is, if you have
- 54:29Speaker 3: a JSN captain, even when there's some sort of clarity,
- 54:32Speaker 3: we get closer to lock. I just, people just don't
- 54:34Speaker 3: want these running backs. Like hoop said earlier, you got, sorry, uh,
- 54:37Speaker 3: Nate said in the chat earlier, you gotta, you get
- 54:39Speaker 3: forced into a build that puts you, puts you down below.
- 54:41Speaker 3: So you're gonna, you're gonna see that be a way
- 54:43Speaker 3: to sort of slice and dice it a little bit.
- 54:45Speaker 3: But also if you think that's the case, then you
- 54:47Speaker 3: got to account for that when you're not putting JSN
- 54:50Speaker 3: up top, because then it's kind of like, um, we
- 54:52Speaker 3: reviewed Rio's lineup yesterday and everyone was like, it's crazy.
- 54:55Speaker 3: He had two tight ends and, phantom was one of
- 54:57Speaker 3: them but he had wilson over here it's like he
- 55:00Speaker 3: played two cheap tight ends the only guy that really
- 55:02Speaker 3: had ownership at expensive tight end was mcbride and he
- 55:05Speaker 3: accounted for that in that line i know an optimizer
- 55:08Speaker 3: did it but i'm saying at the end of the
- 55:09Speaker 3: day that's how the that's how it's thinking we.
- 55:11Speaker 5: Talked about on the show too a lot of that
- 55:13Speaker 5: we talked burrow we loved chase higgins spend up every
- 55:17Speaker 5: wide receiver don't punt the value michael wilson higgins chase
- 55:21Speaker 5: and i i mean double tight ends bent sharp almost
- 55:24Speaker 5: every single week and we made sure to say that
- 55:26Speaker 5: on the show And I didn't want to victory lap
- 55:28Speaker 5: any of that because, yeah, we didn't win any of
- 55:29Speaker 5: the money. But it was really, really clear, especially Gunnar Helm,
- 55:32Speaker 5: who we talked about. I even said that's my favorite
- 55:35Speaker 5: value in that game because Wandale, I'm the more or
- 55:38Speaker 5: I'm in or whatever the heck.
- 55:39Speaker 2: His name is. They're all cheeks. Wandale got lucky to
- 55:42Speaker 2: even get there. They're way higher on when.
- 55:44Speaker 3: Manure is like cow poop. That's amazing. He just said
- 55:47Speaker 3: he's like he's cow. He's pure shit.
- 55:49Speaker 1: All right, go ahead.
- 55:50Speaker 3: Whatever it was.
- 55:51Speaker 5: But I mean, like, yeah, whatever people want. That was
- 55:53Speaker 5: a beautifully constructed team. And yeah, I didn't even. put
- 55:56Speaker 5: together the fan and against Steelers defense. And to be honest,
- 55:59Speaker 5: I like hardly even looked at that game because it
- 56:01Speaker 5: was such a block. I didn't not, I didn't know
- 56:04Speaker 5: fan and did anything until I.
- 56:06Speaker 1: Saw the most surprising part of the lineup. I was like,
- 56:08Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, where did that come from?
- 56:11Speaker 3: That's what I was saying. He was also against the
- 56:13Speaker 3: chalky spend up defense. Again, people, this is the best
- 56:17Speaker 3: part about DFS. Cause you guys know, I love the
- 56:19Speaker 3: education side and DFS mastermind, all that stuff and get in,
- 56:22Speaker 3: take down breakdown for years. Nobody watches it. It's like, well, sweet.
- 56:26Speaker 3: We'll just keep learning from guys like Rio. They got
- 56:28Speaker 3: the sauce and put it out there. And we look
- 56:30Speaker 3: into all these portfolios and shit and see what people
- 56:32Speaker 3: are up to. And then you can go out and play.
- 56:34Speaker 3: Rio literally was on there, texted in the chat about
- 56:37Speaker 3: what he was doing, how he, he went and adjusted
- 56:39Speaker 3: all the defenses. when you adjust all the pay up
- 56:42Speaker 3: defenses and move them up, it made it so you
- 56:46Speaker 3: could now get cheap double tight end lineups, which not
- 56:48Speaker 3: as many people were on as usual. We'd seen it
- 56:50Speaker 3: all season long, not as many this week because so
- 56:53Speaker 3: many running backs and we already had cheap wide receivers.
- 56:55Speaker 3: So you don't need to do this stuff. It just
- 56:57Speaker 3: was beautiful the way it was all put together, but
- 56:59Speaker 3: he controlled it and it worked out and that's the
- 57:01Speaker 3: best part of it. But you can go check that
- 57:03Speaker 3: out earlier. It's a free show. Take down, break down.
- 57:05Speaker 3: Rio's right on there talking about how he built his
- 57:07Speaker 3: portfolio for the Millie maker yesterday. So, Hoop, I'll go
- 57:11Speaker 3: to you on these running backs and get some thoughts here.
- 57:13Speaker 3: I do like one, all the Seattle stuff's great, but
- 57:16Speaker 3: I love what title brought up about Roshan. 3,400, you
- 57:19Speaker 3: already didn't love Swift. And so even, especially if you're
- 57:22Speaker 3: talking in the flex particularly and using them there, you
- 57:24Speaker 3: could have Roshan at 34 when most will be on
- 57:28Speaker 3: Torrey Horton at $ 2, 800. He's right there as a flip.
- 57:31Speaker 3: There's other guys too. I'm just saying that that stands
- 57:33Speaker 3: out to me right away as a thought.
- 57:36Speaker 1: Yeah, I definitely like Swift. Way more in the flex.
- 57:39Speaker 1: I just, it's a high floor sort of play. I just,
- 57:43Speaker 1: I'm struggling to find the ceiling, I guess, in the play.
- 57:46Speaker 1: I mean, they obviously could get there with that sort
- 57:48Speaker 1: of workload, but I like the high floor nature of Swiss.
- 57:52Speaker 1: So good with him in the flex and good with
- 57:54Speaker 1: Roshan Johnson. The Seattle stuff is definitely way more difficult
- 57:57Speaker 1: just because the price tags are all up there. So
- 58:00Speaker 1: you're paying a premium. And like we always say in
- 58:01Speaker 1: the show, like their price where, I mean, Charbonnet and
- 58:05Speaker 1: Price are Price where you got to do something plus.
- 58:08Speaker 1: So you got to do something and then you probably
- 58:10Speaker 1: got to do a little bit more. It's not just,
- 58:12Speaker 1: you know, fall in the end zone. They probably need
- 58:13Speaker 1: some yards to come along with it. So they're at
- 58:16Speaker 1: the do something plus range and I'm kind of uncomfortable
- 58:20Speaker 1: with that. So I'll just rank them. Swift, Johnson, Charbonnet,
- 58:25Speaker 1: then Price and Emmanuel Wilson at 7,400 just to me
- 58:28Speaker 1: just has to be unplayable.
- 58:31Speaker 3: Trying to see this here too just to see there
- 58:33Speaker 3: was from one hour ago talking about his judarian price
- 58:36Speaker 3: playing against the bears i don't see any real we
- 58:43Speaker 3: have we have a plan for zach and with jd said.
- 58:48Speaker 1: On saturday doesn't have a designation so i'm assuming he's in.
- 58:55Speaker 3: The Seahawks don't have to activate Price on Monday, but
- 58:57Speaker 3: they have two more weeks to make a decision on
- 59:00Speaker 3: his status before they'd be required to move to seizing
- 59:02Speaker 3: ending injured reserve. So this is from an hour ago,
- 59:05Speaker 3: but on the chance, it says on the off chance
- 59:08Speaker 3: that he isn't activated for week eight sharp. would likely
- 59:10Speaker 3: share the workload with Wilson, which we know all this.
- 59:12Speaker 3: I'm just saying, Try to get the latest news. That's
- 59:14Speaker 3: from one hour ago. So it's the best we can
- 59:15Speaker 3: get up to date for you guys on this show.
- 59:17Speaker 3: But wide receiver, then hoop. I'll let you go ahead
- 59:21Speaker 3: with that one. I am the other stuff. I'm going
- 59:23Speaker 3: to wait to figure out, but I'll let you start
- 59:25Speaker 3: at wide receiver there beyond just, we know JSN, but
- 59:27Speaker 3: you know, no Shahid, right? No Vilas Jones Jr. They're already,
- 59:31Speaker 3: we're missing some guys and have guys out, but give
- 59:33Speaker 3: us your thoughts here at wide receiver.
- 59:35Speaker 1: They have pretty clear, clean position. I should say in
- 59:39Speaker 1: terms of like who you want on the Seattle side, clearly,
- 59:41Speaker 1: you know, JSN, cooper cup in theory should get a
- 59:45Speaker 1: little bit of a boost but i don't know if
- 59:46Speaker 1: he really does i mean to me horton is more
- 59:48Speaker 1: of like a a pass catching guy than shaheed so
- 59:51Speaker 1: he's kind of turned into this gimmicky you know just
- 59:55Speaker 1: random player punt return sort of thing so you know
- 59:59Speaker 1: jsn cooper cup in the flex i guess horton i
- 1:00:04Speaker 1: think it's really good value at you know 2800 He's
- 1:00:07Speaker 1: looked good in the past when he's given opportunities. The ownership,
- 1:00:11Speaker 1: I guess, could be maybe a little concerning. Oh, yeah. No,
- 1:00:17Speaker 1: I mean, we're showing under 20. So as long as
- 1:00:18Speaker 1: that remains in place, I mean, a really strong option.
- 1:00:21Speaker 1: I think Horton is on the bear side. Burden, Dunzey,
- 1:00:25Speaker 1: and then Raymond. And I just don't really want to
- 1:00:28Speaker 1: mess with the super cheap dudes. I just don't think
- 1:00:30Speaker 1: it's all that needed. So kind of just sticking with
- 1:00:33Speaker 1: the main guys. Horton's a phenomenal value on the slate. And,
- 1:00:36Speaker 1: you know, hopefully the ownership stays below 20, which, you know,
- 1:00:40Speaker 1: if it does, there's no concern there. I guess I
- 1:00:44Speaker 1: thought Horton would be just much higher on knowing that
- 1:00:47Speaker 1: Shaheed Dollar is only 2,800. We're showing 15. I just
- 1:00:51Speaker 1: looked at another source. They're under 20% as well. So
- 1:00:54Speaker 1: it seems like that could be the case. And if
- 1:00:56Speaker 1: that is the case, just to make some really good play. Yeah.
- 1:01:00Speaker 3: I think we'll see how it shakes out by lock.
- 1:01:02Speaker 3: The other thing, that's why I kept mentioning the other
- 1:01:03Speaker 3: is like, he, I think he's also, um, everyone's double
- 1:01:06Speaker 3: dip hope on this slate because with no Shahid and
- 1:01:10Speaker 3: no Velas Jones jr. You're getting him sliding in for
- 1:01:13Speaker 3: potentially both roles, right? Punt returner, kick returner, whatever they
- 1:01:16Speaker 3: decide to use them like on offense they have in
- 1:01:19Speaker 3: the past. So It just shows, right, you know, this
- 1:01:21Speaker 3: position is quite interesting for this slate outside of all
- 1:01:24Speaker 3: the running back conversation title. But, you know, Kopp is
- 1:01:26Speaker 3: right in the middle there and he's kind of getting
- 1:01:28Speaker 3: held in check as well because most of the builds
- 1:01:31Speaker 3: don't land on him or most builds already are accounting
- 1:01:34Speaker 3: for JSN, as we know, and for good reason. So
- 1:01:36Speaker 3: it's like, well, I don't need Kopp too, do I?
- 1:01:38Speaker 3: Or I wouldn't get to Kopp too. So you think
- 1:01:40Speaker 3: about that and how it sort of fits into it.
- 1:01:41Speaker 3: And then, of course, the Chicago guys not getting much
- 1:01:44Speaker 3: love at all on this slate. So give me your
- 1:01:46Speaker 3: thoughts of the wide receiver position.
- 1:01:48Speaker 5: Yeah, starting with Seattle, I agree with Maids here. I
- 1:01:50Speaker 5: think it's probably going to be about 30%. I'm going
- 1:01:53Speaker 5: to update how I build and put that in. I
- 1:01:57Speaker 5: just don't see any way. I don't know where people
- 1:01:58Speaker 5: would really go in terms of value. And I still
- 1:02:00Speaker 5: am going to play some at 30%. He's going to
- 1:02:02Speaker 5: be out there a bunch, and I think he's actually
- 1:02:04Speaker 5: a pretty good receiver. Just don't zero it out or
- 1:02:07Speaker 5: leave 200, and I don't know. I just don't think
- 1:02:09Speaker 5: he's 15%, which then makes Cup even more intriguing for
- 1:02:12Speaker 5: me since I do think he stays where he's at
- 1:02:15Speaker 5: and has some leverage there if Cup has– A great game.
- 1:02:18Speaker 5: Torrey Horton probably isn't having as good of one. JSN,
- 1:02:22Speaker 5: I mean, just seeing him 58% in the flex, I
- 1:02:24Speaker 5: just think naturally I'm going to be overweight captain, underweight flex.
- 1:02:28Speaker 5: Hope he fully gets there or really flops and then
- 1:02:31Speaker 5: gets outscored by Caleb or Darnold or some other spend-ups.
- 1:02:34Speaker 5: On the Bears side, I talked about Luther. Love him,
- 1:02:38Speaker 5: and I like him more in flex, but I'm fine
- 1:02:40Speaker 5: with him captain. To be honest, I like all these
- 1:02:42Speaker 5: Bears guys, and it kind of comes back to an
- 1:02:45Speaker 5: all-these-Bears guy, meaning a dunesay, Kalief Raymond and Burden. And
- 1:02:49Speaker 5: it comes back to when you are overweight on these guys,
- 1:02:52Speaker 5: it's easier to get off the 4-2, 5-1 Seahawks and
- 1:02:55Speaker 5: tilt it more to the Bears stuff. So, yeah, I
- 1:02:57Speaker 5: definitely like the Bears receivers, all three of them. They
- 1:03:01Speaker 5: play three receivers. It's those three every single time pretty much.
- 1:03:04Speaker 5: They're not really rotating anyone else in. Zavian Thomas, Jadae Walker. Like, yeah,
- 1:03:10Speaker 5: if you're playing 150, what did they get last week?
- 1:03:13Speaker 5: Three snaps for Walker and five snaps for Thomas the
- 1:03:16Speaker 5: week prior. was a little more, but I don't know
- 1:03:19Speaker 5: what happened in that game, if it was blood or
- 1:03:21Speaker 5: injuries or whatever, because that looked like an anomaly. So, Vernon, Odunze, Raymond,
- 1:03:26Speaker 5: I think are all great flex plays.
- 1:03:28Speaker 3: Yeah, another one just because the chat said it. We're
- 1:03:30Speaker 3: all expecting Price to play. That's exactly what it is.
- 1:03:33Speaker 3: But even this was another one just came up. I
- 1:03:36Speaker 3: read it here. This was from just today. And it
- 1:03:38Speaker 3: says McDonald's said, it's their coach, that the coaching staff
- 1:03:43Speaker 3: has a plan for Charbonnet, but it was different for Price.
- 1:03:45Speaker 3: He said, and with JD, I think if we were
- 1:03:48Speaker 3: to make a move, I think that would happen on Monday.
- 1:03:52Speaker 3: So we'll, we'll see what's going to happen when we
- 1:03:54Speaker 3: get closer to, I would expect them, but just, you know,
- 1:03:56Speaker 3: so people know we've got to, you got to still wait.
- 1:03:58Speaker 3: You got to always wait for the latest information as
- 1:04:00Speaker 3: we talk about with weather and all those other things.
- 1:04:02Speaker 3: So I'll be waiting to find that out, but going
- 1:04:04Speaker 3: back to it here, you know, burden Odunze for me,
- 1:04:09Speaker 3: just looking at it from the other side, I think
- 1:04:11Speaker 3: just because they sort of split the middle, there's going
- 1:04:13Speaker 3: to be a more balanced roster construction. They're not able
- 1:04:15Speaker 3: to fit very easily. You can make anything work with
- 1:04:17Speaker 3: the values, but I mean, in a lineup that I
- 1:04:19Speaker 3: would want when you've got, I don't know, JSN, Darnold
- 1:04:22Speaker 3: and Horton. And then you can get to those guys. Great.
- 1:04:25Speaker 3: But that's how everybody else would get to them too.
- 1:04:27Speaker 3: So it's like just thinking about it from that perspective,
- 1:04:28Speaker 3: it's going to be a little bit different. I think
- 1:04:30Speaker 3: it's crazy. Like you said earlier, title, how it's like
- 1:04:33Speaker 3: a three point game, but it's cool. We've seen crazy shit.
- 1:04:40Speaker 3: happen all season. It would not be shocking to me
- 1:04:42Speaker 3: in the least. You talk about Ben Johnson being involved
- 1:04:45Speaker 3: on both sides of the ball as much just a
- 1:04:47Speaker 3: fired up head coach that he is. He wants to
- 1:04:49Speaker 3: win this game. Everyone always gives these Seahawks the love.
- 1:04:52Speaker 3: They're Super Bowl champions.
- 1:04:53Speaker 1: This is it.
- 1:04:54Speaker 3: We got to come out and get the job done.
- 1:04:55Speaker 3: So I think those guys are just getting... really overlooked.
- 1:05:00Speaker 3: And it's also because of not just the price in
- 1:05:02Speaker 3: the captain or JSM, but just the price in general.
- 1:05:05Speaker 3: Once you put a 12 K guy in there, even
- 1:05:06Speaker 3: in the flex, it's just not as a common to
- 1:05:09Speaker 3: build where you're going to land on those guys on
- 1:05:10Speaker 3: the opposite side. So if they're held, I mean, I'm
- 1:05:12Speaker 3: seeing those guys both being around 35% or less combined
- 1:05:17Speaker 3: with their captain ownership. Like these are wide receiver ones
- 1:05:20Speaker 3: and twos for a team in a three point game
- 1:05:22Speaker 3: with a 46 point total that you said, baby could
- 1:05:24Speaker 3: go over. Like, How are you looking at this and
- 1:05:26Speaker 3: saying they should be that low-owned?
- 1:05:28Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 1:05:29Speaker 3: But it's all down to roster construction. I think that's
- 1:05:31Speaker 3: what it tells. So for me, pretty interesting for tonight's slate.
- 1:05:35Speaker 3: The other side, Cup is probably the most interesting just
- 1:05:37Speaker 3: because the fact that he's just sliced up the middle
- 1:05:40Speaker 3: of all that stuff, right? It's going to be Horton
- 1:05:43Speaker 3: or JSN or both. And a lot of people will
- 1:05:45Speaker 3: struggle to get to all of them. He'll still be owned,
- 1:05:47Speaker 3: but he's sub-20 altogether, it looks like, with captain and that.
- 1:05:51Speaker 3: And again, not saying to get him up in the captain,
- 1:05:53Speaker 3: but in the flex category. Could be interesting when you've
- 1:05:55Speaker 3: got that money to get to him as opposed to
- 1:05:57Speaker 3: just playing Horton. Most times leave the money on the table.
- 1:06:00Speaker 3: But in this case, you know, you probably still have
- 1:06:02Speaker 3: some money on the table, but could still play a
- 1:06:03Speaker 3: guy that ends up being pretty low owned in the flex.
- 1:06:06Speaker 3: So anything else to follow up with their hoop? If not,
- 1:06:09Speaker 3: you can take us into the tight end position here.
- 1:06:12Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:06:12Speaker 1: I mean, already like Colston, you know, potentially playing them
- 1:06:15Speaker 1: up top as well. I think Barner is, we've talked
- 1:06:19Speaker 1: about it with Seattle kind of wide receiver too, and
- 1:06:22Speaker 1: he's only 4,600. So I really like Barner tonight. And then,
- 1:06:26Speaker 1: you know, if you want some of these other guys,
- 1:06:28Speaker 1: I think there is better for like the quarterback captain
- 1:06:31Speaker 1: teams specifically Roush and that, you know, title's really good
- 1:06:34Speaker 1: about the snap count thing. I'm curious if you have
- 1:06:36Speaker 1: it up, how many snaps that guy got because he
- 1:06:38Speaker 1: has a decent projection. It looks like tonight, yeah.
- 1:06:43Speaker 5: He played 14 snaps last week, but there's no Cole Komet.
- 1:06:46Speaker 5: Cole Komet played in that last game. 10 receiving yards.
- 1:06:50Speaker 1: Komet, did he play the whole game, Komet?
- 1:06:53Speaker 2: No, I think he got hurt, so he played.
- 1:06:55Speaker 1: Yeah, at some point, yeah.
- 1:06:57Speaker 2: Yeah, I want to say he got hurt in the
- 1:06:58Speaker 2: second half. I'm not 100% sure there, but.
- 1:07:01Speaker 1: Yeah, because if he slides into that role, I mean,
- 1:07:03Speaker 1: it's legit because Komet's out there quite a bit. So
- 1:07:06Speaker 1: I do have interest in him at 1,200. Again, probably
- 1:07:09Speaker 1: better suited for, like, Caleb captain teams. But at 1,200, yeah,
- 1:07:14Speaker 1: I'd be fine with that. But, you know, definitely Barner
- 1:07:17Speaker 1: a ton at 4,600, really good play. And I like Loveland, too.
- 1:07:20Speaker 5: 530 left in the fourth quarter last game.
- 1:07:23Speaker 1: Oh, okay. So he's right at the end. Okay.
- 1:07:25Speaker 5: Yeah, 10 receiving yards, a little juice on the over.
- 1:07:27Speaker 5: So he's going to be out there. He's my favorite
- 1:07:29Speaker 5: tight end play.
- 1:07:30Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a good one.
- 1:07:33Speaker 2: Who's that?
- 1:07:34Speaker 4: Roush.
- 1:07:34Speaker 2: He's 1,200.
- 1:07:35Speaker 5: Again, when you're trying to get away from the Torrey Hortons,
- 1:07:38Speaker 5: that's four or two Bears. Everyone's playing the Seattle stuff,
- 1:07:42Speaker 5: so I'm trying to find value on the Bears side.
- 1:07:44Speaker 5: I like the three main receivers. I think Roush is interesting,
- 1:07:48Speaker 5: and I think Roush is interesting at 1,200.
- 1:07:50Speaker 3: Yeah, I think the Barner one, just going back to it,
- 1:07:53Speaker 3: I missed this earlier. I guess you could say it
- 1:07:55Speaker 3: for Loveland, but we like the Seahawks. I actually think
- 1:07:59Speaker 3: Barner captain, now that I go back to it, just
- 1:08:02Speaker 3: looking at it, 6,900 bucks up top. I just don't
- 1:08:05Speaker 3: feel as good about it with... you know, like Horton
- 1:08:08Speaker 3: or cup or, you know, figuring it out. And even
- 1:08:10Speaker 3: the running backs go up to almost 10 to 11 K.
- 1:08:13Speaker 3: So it's like, if I'm really trying to flip the
- 1:08:14Speaker 3: bill and something that cuts in between all of it,
- 1:08:17Speaker 3: it would probably be that. And then you could still play, um,
- 1:08:20Speaker 3: GSN and the flex. Obviously it's like, again, depends on
- 1:08:22Speaker 3: how the game scores and how it plays out. But
- 1:08:23Speaker 3: I think Barner is more interesting there. I like him.
- 1:08:26Speaker 3: I like your Roush call Loveland in the flex. I
- 1:08:28Speaker 3: think he's sort of in that range. You've got Rome. Um,
- 1:08:32Speaker 3: I probably would, I would probably still land on Rome
- 1:08:35Speaker 3: more than Loveland. just the spot here for 200 bucks less,
- 1:08:38Speaker 3: lower owned. If you're bringing a bring back, I think
- 1:08:41Speaker 3: a lot of people just see Loveland and land on him.
- 1:08:43Speaker 3: But I think Loveland is the guy with more one
- 1:08:45Speaker 3: up top and you think he's going to be part
- 1:08:47Speaker 3: of the reason the Bears win than I would have
- 1:08:49Speaker 3: just used them in that flex one off. Again, you're
- 1:08:51Speaker 3: going to have a bunch of lineups in a portfolio,
- 1:08:52Speaker 3: so it's going to happen. But if you're hand building
- 1:08:54Speaker 3: one or you're thinking for yourself, I kind of like
- 1:08:57Speaker 3: Odunze for $ 200 less, lower owned, and whatever else. But
- 1:09:00Speaker 3: not too much else at the tight end. We talked
- 1:09:03Speaker 3: defenses already, Hoop, a little bit earlier. But what do
- 1:09:06Speaker 3: you got for the kickers here? Santos and Myers. Where's
- 1:09:10Speaker 3: the game log watching?
- 1:09:12Speaker 1: Myers is one of my favorite dudes on the showdown slates.
- 1:09:16Speaker 1: I mean, he's... We let's see. He hasn't had a
- 1:09:20Speaker 1: it's not crazy, but he hasn't had a full bus
- 1:09:22Speaker 1: this year. I mean, six is the lowest. He's got
- 1:09:25Speaker 1: a 23 spot in there. He's got a nine, a
- 1:09:27Speaker 1: couple eights, a couple sevens. And this is a team
- 1:09:32Speaker 1: that will definitely settle for the field goal. Like they're
- 1:09:34Speaker 1: not super aggressive. They'll bank on their defense. So I
- 1:09:37Speaker 1: really like Myers fine with Santos as well, but prefer Myers.
- 1:09:44Speaker 1: I mean, Santos has some some big boy games as well.
- 1:09:47Speaker 1: In terms of the defenses, you know, Seattle's defense, I think,
- 1:09:53Speaker 1: is always a strong option. So probably, you know, more
- 1:09:55Speaker 1: defense than usual. But out of the four, Myers is
- 1:09:58Speaker 1: definitely my favorite. All right.
- 1:10:01Speaker 3: Title, anything you want to add on kickers and defenses here?
- 1:10:04Speaker 5: I mean, probably going to be a donkey again and
- 1:10:06Speaker 5: be overweight on these defenses because they're 12% and 12%,
- 1:10:09Speaker 5: whereas the kickers are looking at double. I had a
- 1:10:13Speaker 5: bunch of commanders, I guess, yesterday, and it worked out.
- 1:10:15Speaker 5: And when people are probably like, you said the over
- 1:10:17Speaker 5: and that again, I'm, I was asked a question.
- 1:10:20Speaker 2: I said it.
- 1:10:21Speaker 5: I trust Vegas 46 and a half. That's not too
- 1:10:24Speaker 5: bad of one. And when I'm not playing quarterbacks or
- 1:10:26Speaker 5: if I'm underweight there, again, I do think it makes
- 1:10:28Speaker 5: a lot of sense to play a defense or if
- 1:10:32Speaker 5: you're not playing any quarterback in any lineup, I almost
- 1:10:34Speaker 5: surely would play, especially hand-building one.
- 1:10:37Speaker 2: And then, yeah, Sam Darnold, you mentioned, maybe he sees ghosts.
- 1:10:39Speaker 2: He can't move. There's defense.
- 1:10:41Speaker 5: I think it's pretty interesting. They get Simmons. Who knows
- 1:10:43Speaker 5: how much, He plays today. I think he'll be out
- 1:10:45Speaker 5: there a little bit, though. And I've already liked DeAndre
- 1:10:47Speaker 5: Swift quite a bit. It just just adds another reason
- 1:10:50Speaker 5: to like Bears defense, then control the game, play from
- 1:10:53Speaker 5: ahead and make the Seahawks get into very obvious passing situations.
- 1:10:57Speaker 3: Yeah, a lot more to shake out with the slate
- 1:10:58Speaker 3: as we get closer to lock. Like we talked about waiting.
- 1:11:00Speaker 3: Somebody posted we only got an hour to go till
- 1:11:02Speaker 3: we get some of the news. So we'll see on
- 1:11:04Speaker 3: like the price stuff or all that stuff. But I
- 1:11:06Speaker 3: would say that it is really interesting to me if
- 1:11:09Speaker 3: this holds true on the kickers over the defenses. I
- 1:11:12Speaker 3: would just flip those. right?
- 1:11:14Speaker 1: Play.
- 1:11:15Speaker 3: I'd probably play more of the defenses, less of the kickers,
- 1:11:17Speaker 3: but that's just on this slate. Depends on how you're building.
- 1:11:21Speaker 3: I don't, I don't know. Like, I feel like the defenses,
- 1:11:23Speaker 3: we always get this. And then they talk about like
- 1:11:25Speaker 3: offensive mind, Ben Johnson, like the other team with JSN
- 1:11:28Speaker 3: and the high powered this and all of that. Obviously
- 1:11:30Speaker 3: anything could happen. We talk about this all the time,
- 1:11:32Speaker 3: but I think that, there's a chance that sometimes we
- 1:11:36Speaker 3: see those games and then the, the game is the
- 1:11:38Speaker 3: defense showing up. And I know that people say, well,
- 1:11:40Speaker 3: that could mean kickers too. It could, you might need
- 1:11:42Speaker 3: a lot of that. You might need kickers and defenses.
- 1:11:44Speaker 3: I'm just saying it's weird to me that the kickers are,
- 1:11:47Speaker 3: you know, 20 to 30% in some places. And then
- 1:11:50Speaker 3: the D's are, you know, 10 to 12 or something
- 1:11:53Speaker 3: like that. It just doesn't, it doesn't seem what I would,
- 1:11:56Speaker 3: what I would have expected. So I'm good. I'm good
- 1:11:58Speaker 3: with the D's over the kickers here for sure. What
- 1:11:59Speaker 3: do you think on this?
- 1:12:00Speaker 5: I just did my own research. I don't see anything,
- 1:12:03Speaker 5: but take that with a grain of salt. It's going
- 1:12:08Speaker 5: to be a little cold.
- 1:12:11Speaker 3: If it was titled the DFS weather, man, what color
- 1:12:13Speaker 3: code would you use?
- 1:12:14Speaker 1: Green. Green. Let's go, baby. We're in the green tonight.
- 1:12:18Speaker 1: That's what it means.
- 1:12:19Speaker 2: Here we come.
- 1:12:20Speaker 5: Turn on the game and it's raining in Seattle and
- 1:12:23Speaker 5: I'll just retire.
- 1:12:26Speaker 3: Oh man. Kickers have been pretty bad this season. When
- 1:12:28Speaker 3: you think about a lot of like, I just can,
- 1:12:29Speaker 3: all I can think about is the misses. I guess
- 1:12:31Speaker 3: that's normal. It feels like all the time you just
- 1:12:33Speaker 3: see them line up and you're like, man, are they
- 1:12:35Speaker 3: even going to make this right now? You know, you're,
- 1:12:38Speaker 3: you're already thinking about it before it even happens.
- 1:12:40Speaker 1: So we'll see.
- 1:12:44Speaker 3: All right. Fan duel hoop. Anything you see over on
- 1:12:47Speaker 3: the fan duel side of things when you first glance here?
- 1:12:51Speaker 1: The Seattle running backs are just, even more expensive. Charbonnet 9,400, uh,
- 1:12:57Speaker 1: price 86 and Emmanuel Wilson, $ 10, 000. So, uh, if you
- 1:13:04Speaker 1: want a super contrarian play on the slate, uh, Emmanuel
- 1:13:07Speaker 1: Wilson at 10 K on, uh, on FanDuel. AJ Barner though, 3,000, 3K, super,
- 1:13:13Speaker 1: super cheap over there. Um, is there anything else that
- 1:13:17Speaker 1: stood out? Horton's down at 26. Uh, that Roush guy, uh,
- 1:13:22Speaker 1: basically the minimum he's at 1200. So, you know, even
- 1:13:27Speaker 1: on FanDuel where like one touchdown is probably good enough.
- 1:13:30Speaker 1: Like he, he definitely fits it over there quite well.
- 1:13:34Speaker 1: Kind of it that stand, but what stands out? Yeah, definitely.
- 1:13:37Speaker 1: Those Seattle running backs are tough clicks for sure.
- 1:13:40Speaker 3: People already love the quarterback and the top guy MVPs.
- 1:13:44Speaker 3: So like, you know, title Darnold and JSN up top.
- 1:13:48Speaker 3: But when you get that, when you get that burner price,
- 1:13:51Speaker 3: over there, it just tells you where there's going to
- 1:13:53Speaker 3: be 50% MVP on those two guys. Probably come on.
- 1:13:57Speaker 3: And I get it. And I understand all of it.
- 1:13:59Speaker 3: I'm just saying, man, that is it's nuts. And then
- 1:14:01Speaker 3: it's sometimes it's a value play that just bolsters it, right?
- 1:14:04Speaker 3: It makes it way easier to even get JSN up there. It's,
- 1:14:07Speaker 3: makes you validate, okay, if I got Darnold, it's obviously
- 1:14:10Speaker 3: JSN and burner. I would think about that when you're
- 1:14:13Speaker 3: building as well, because a, it could be the running
- 1:14:15Speaker 3: game B, which nobody wants to take a shot on
- 1:14:17Speaker 3: them at those prices. And then B it's a, if
- 1:14:20Speaker 3: you go with Darnold and it's really hard to get
- 1:14:21Speaker 3: away from JSN, I get that. So then maybe it's,
- 1:14:24Speaker 3: you know, cup instead of, you know, cup is up
- 1:14:27Speaker 3: at 5,400 over there. It seems disgusting.
- 1:14:30Speaker 1: Great.
- 1:14:30Speaker 3: It's, but it's not disgusting enough that he can't get
- 1:14:32Speaker 3: there at that price tag. It's just, he's not 3k
- 1:14:35Speaker 3: like Barner. So I'll be looking at it from that perspective,
- 1:14:39Speaker 3: at least on, on my end, anything else you saw
- 1:14:40Speaker 3: on the Fandles side? Yeah.
- 1:14:42Speaker 2: The Torrey Horton, AJ Barner for sure. It'll be popular.
- 1:14:45Speaker 5: Like we saw Roshan Johnson, a lot more expensive, 5,800
- 1:14:49Speaker 5: more than cup, more than Raymond.
- 1:14:50Speaker 2: More than those guys. He's going to be really low owned.
- 1:14:53Speaker 2: I think the Bears.
- 1:14:54Speaker 5: Receivers and Colson Loveland have solid prices, 8-2 Burden, 7-6 Adunze,
- 1:15:00Speaker 5: 7-2 Loveland, just relative to the.
- 1:15:04Speaker 2: FanDuel slate.
- 1:15:05Speaker 5: And the ownership, because they fit DraftKings scoring a little
- 1:15:07Speaker 5: more full point, I think at ownership they're also great plays.
- 1:15:11Speaker 5: And then, yeah, kickers will be just like on DraftKings,
- 1:15:15Speaker 5: a lot higher, maybe even more so on FanDuel than DraftKings.
- 1:15:18Speaker 5: So I think defenses are elite over there as well.
- 1:15:20Speaker 2: They get different.
- 1:15:22Speaker 1: If this happens, we'll all be very excited, I think,
- 1:15:25Speaker 1: based on what we've talked about on the show. I'll
- 1:15:27Speaker 1: take the one-yard tush-push for Barner.
- 1:15:30Speaker 3: That's added value. And it just crushes Darnold and JSN
- 1:15:34Speaker 3: even more. Neither of them get acting on that, and
- 1:15:37Speaker 3: so it's just him busting it in. I'd be thrilled.
- 1:15:40Speaker 3: That's a possibility for sure.
- 1:15:41Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:15:41Speaker 3: It's like I said, I think Barner is interesting, but
- 1:15:43Speaker 3: not like he's not going to be owned. It's just
- 1:15:45Speaker 3: how do people play him? That's what it's always going
- 1:15:47Speaker 3: to come down to. So I'm FanDuel, you know where
- 1:15:49Speaker 3: it's going to be. It's going to be right in the,
- 1:15:51Speaker 3: the any flex with one of those two guys, his
- 1:15:53Speaker 3: dudes up top. So maybe it's a, you know, do
- 1:15:55Speaker 3: a Caleb captain where most would have Darnold and you're sorry,
- 1:15:59Speaker 3: Caleb MVP on FanDuel to stay with the FanDuel thoughts.
- 1:16:01Speaker 3: And you've got, him in the flex that way. And
- 1:16:04Speaker 3: you've got a different type of build altogether with a
- 1:16:06Speaker 3: couple Chicago receivers or something like that. Those are the
- 1:16:08Speaker 3: types of builds where you're using the guy that is value,
- 1:16:11Speaker 3: but how are you using them? And look at, you know, again,
- 1:16:14Speaker 3: shout out full circle here, Rio with gunner helm. Well,
- 1:16:17Speaker 3: playing just gunner helm, good playing gunner helm with Chase
- 1:16:22Speaker 3: Higgins burrow, and then making it fit everything else. And
- 1:16:25Speaker 3: a secondary tight end and a pay up D that
- 1:16:27Speaker 3: gets different on the slate and combines all those. That's
- 1:16:29Speaker 3: the penthouse process that I always talk about. You use
- 1:16:32Speaker 3: a piece that other people connect with and say, Oh,
- 1:16:34Speaker 3: I could go there. I see how that could work,
- 1:16:36Speaker 3: but what do you do with it? And then how
- 1:16:37Speaker 3: do you go to that next level or that next
- 1:16:39Speaker 3: rung to be able to make your lineup stand out
- 1:16:41Speaker 3: in showdown? That's the name of the game. We all
- 1:16:43Speaker 3: have a smaller player pool. less guys to work with
- 1:16:46Speaker 3: still tons of combinations though, that you can find your
- 1:16:49Speaker 3: way to get different. So hopefully you guys can do
- 1:16:51Speaker 3: that on tonight's slate title. Any final thoughts from you, man,
- 1:16:53Speaker 3: before we get out of here?
- 1:16:55Speaker 5: Yeah, I think I liked it a little more than
- 1:16:57Speaker 5: as we started or as we kept talking, I think
- 1:16:59Speaker 5: just five, one, four, two Seahawks will be very popular.
- 1:17:02Speaker 5: So just flipping the roster construction still allows you, if
- 1:17:05Speaker 5: you want to like play Barn or Horton or whatever,
- 1:17:07Speaker 5: you can still do it. You just play it in
- 1:17:09Speaker 5: a little different way.
- 1:17:10Speaker 2: So yeah. And two good football teams, which is always
- 1:17:12Speaker 2: fun to watch as well.
- 1:17:13Speaker 1: All right.
- 1:17:14Speaker 5: Like last night, what are we doing watching the Commanders
- 1:17:17Speaker 5: against McKee? At least we get two respectable offenses and defenses.
- 1:17:22Speaker 4: So I'm excited for this one.
- 1:17:24Speaker 3: The irony to that, I will say as a Ravens fan,
- 1:17:27Speaker 3: was we spoke all morning, many people across Discord shows,
- 1:17:30Speaker 3: et cetera, of like, why isn't this game the Sunday
- 1:17:33Speaker 3: night football game? It definitely should be. And it still
- 1:17:35Speaker 3: would have been better, actually. But just to note it,
- 1:17:38Speaker 3: imagine we get that game in prime time and then
- 1:17:40Speaker 3: Lamar comes out and busts his thumb on the first
- 1:17:42Speaker 3: one and now he's out for the season.
- 1:17:44Speaker 2: Are they going to get Jacoby? How would you feel
- 1:17:46Speaker 2: about that? Sure.
- 1:17:49Speaker 3: Garbage time points count the same. We always say it.
- 1:17:51Speaker 3: But I would say the funniest one I saw was
- 1:17:54Speaker 3: if they could trade for Gardner Minshew and then get
- 1:17:57Speaker 3: the revenge game for Minshew right away on Thursday Night
- 1:18:00Speaker 3: Football going against the Jags. That would be cool. I
- 1:18:02Speaker 3: would like to see that.
- 1:18:04Speaker 1: Plus, he slings them around.
- 1:18:05Speaker 3: The season's a goner. It doesn't matter. Like, it's over now.
- 1:18:09Speaker 1: What about Danny Dimes? Danny Dimes?
- 1:18:11Speaker 3: Definitely not. I don't want him.
- 1:18:13Speaker 2: You still call him Dimes?
- 1:18:16Speaker 1: Sorry, dollars. Dollars, sorry.
- 1:18:17Speaker 3: Dollars. There's more title advice for you guys.
- 1:18:21Speaker 2: Danny Dollars, he'll take your dollars.
- 1:18:24Speaker 3: Hoop, anything from you, man? Final thoughts before we get
- 1:18:27Speaker 3: out of here?
- 1:18:28Speaker 1: Good luck to everyone. It was a lot of fun
- 1:18:32Speaker 1: talking to Rio in the opening. So if you are
- 1:18:35Speaker 1: joining in late, make sure you go back and listen.
