  Speaker 1: All right, before we go ahead and start breaking down
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: the Yellowwood five hundred at Talladega Superspeedway, let me pull
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: up my screen share here, let me mention us ship

• 1:31
  Speaker 1: have success with DFS. And when we say everything, we
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: mean everything. We cover all the major sports NFL, PGA,
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: PGA Swing season is happening right now. I drafted jjspawn
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: super expensive. This weekend. PGA swing season isn't full effect.
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: Recover it at ship Nation, MLB Playoffs, MMA, college football
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: around the corner, Hockey's right around the corner, and of
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: course NASCAR, And what do you get with all of

  Speaker 1: those sports projections for main slates and showdowns for the
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: NFL we get the stone, core reports, player pools, slate plants,
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: stack rankings, everything you need to have success in DFS
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: plus education courses. So once again, ship nation dot com.
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: If you haven't already, please give us a shot. We're
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: pretty great. All right, Let's go ahead and move on
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: to the Yellowwood four hundred, which is taking place at
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: Talladega Super Speedway. Green Flag is at two o'clock Eastern time,
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: NBC Network in the US and TSN five in Canada.
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: And since we are super speedway racing this weekend, that
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: means we do not care at all about dominator points,
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: so we're not playing dominators and place differential is king,
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: And now we're going to talk about the slate a
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: little bit, and let me go ahead and bring my
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: screen share overlaid back up here perfect. Normally, what I
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: do for these slates, as you may know, is I
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: break down four of my favorite plays for the slate
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: and why. But today I'm just kind of going to
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: go through some game theory and discuss a whole bunch
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: of drivers, because, like I mentioned, place differential is king
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: at all superspeedway races, So that's Daytona, Talladega, and Atlanta,
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: though I don't consider Atlanta two as highly as I
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: do Daytona and Talladega. Confidently, you can remove, in my opinion,
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: the top ten at least from your place. So that
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: means Michael mcdalell, Austin Sindrick, Todd gillan Land, Kyle Busch,
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: which kills me because I think he's gonna win, Ryan Blaney,
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: Joey Logano, Austin Dillon, Denny Hamlin, Harrison Burton, and Daniel Hemric.
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: I am recommending to completely remove them from your player pool,
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: and you can even go so far as even doing
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: Chase Elliott, Kyle Larson, Brad Kay and Tyler Reddick. You
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: can confidently cut out the top fourteenth from your player
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: pool this week because we are only only only only
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: only thing we care about is place differential. I'm starting
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: off my pool this week with ty Gibbs, who's starting
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: fifteenth and working from there, and I think I will
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: truthfully have exposure to everybody from fifteenth all the way
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: through fortieth, which takes us through BJ McCloud, Zane Smith
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: and Jjyaley. Anybody in this range could be optimal. Anybody
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: there is no difference in Martin truex Junior and cody
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: Ware this weekend, which is hard to wrap your mind around.
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: I totally get that, but we care about place differential.
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: That's it. If there's a big one and cody Ware
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: is in the back and Martin Truick's Junior gets swept
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: up in a fifteen car accident, cody Ware just got
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: you fifteen spots from only fifty two hundred bucks. Right,
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: so place differential is King, King, King, King, King King.
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: I cannot cannot drive that point home enough in your
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: favorite optimizers or ship Deviser. Hopefully you're using ship Deviser,
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: but if you're not using ship Deviser and using any
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: other optimizer, highly recommend to boost randomness this weekend, right,
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: I know, ship de Miser. You can increase the randomness
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: on points, or rather the projection and ownership. I will
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: be increasing them both. I will be increasing the ceiling blend.
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: I will be increasing the max number of drivers per
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: lineup or max number of unique drivers per lineup. And
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: I will be increasing the salary range. There is no
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: salary restrictions this weekend, no rules. This weekend get funky, right,
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: We are basically trying to land on the perfect lottery
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: ticket this weekend. And these super speedway races is much
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: more of a lottery than the other NASCAR races that
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: we get during the season. So if I take a
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: look now at the top, so considering that I'm recommending
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: fading the top fourteen, we're gonna start breaking down and
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: talking drivers starting with fifteenth. Ty Gibbs should be a
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: good play. I don't know. I don't really expect much
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: from Tie on Sunday. He's kind of in that middle
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: of the road land where if he gets into the
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: top ten and runs a top five all day, could
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: be a great play. But if he gets into an accident,
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: he could definitely say if he gets into an early
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: accident Ty Gibbs at fifteenth, he could lose easily twenty
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: spots all the way back to fortieth. So Ty Gibbs
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: I'll have some exposure to, but not much. Same with
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: Willy B. Willy B projects really well here at Talladega.
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: I'll have some exposure to him, but not too much
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: because he is our current NASCAR points leader, and I
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: don't think he'll be hammering it too hard on SVG.
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: Shane Van Gisbergen is starting seventeenth. I don't anticipate him
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: getting a ton of ownership. In fact, we're not even
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: pulling odds for him right now to win. However, that
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: does not stop me from playing him. In fact, I
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: will probably be overweight on SVG because his super speedway
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: abilities don't frighten me. At the beginning of the season. Yes,
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: I would probably avoid SVG at these types of tracks,
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: but SVG had a pretty nice performance in the Affinity
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: Race today and he got caught up an accident not
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: of his doing, so yeah, I have no problems taking
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: a chance on SVG on Sunday. The only thing that
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: worries me with SVG is the car he's in, which
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: is the colleague car, but still not too worried. Next up,
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: we've got a pair of Stuart Has drivers, Ryan Priest
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: and Josh Berry. Ryan Priest was in that gnarly super
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: speedway accident I think it was Daytona last year two
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: years ago, and Josh Berry. Ryan Priest seems to excel
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: at super speedways. I probably will have very little exposure
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: to both of these, maybe like five percent if that.
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: While Priest excels, he just hasn't been good this year period,
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: so kind of keeping me off him and Josh Berry
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: I just don't see him as a super speedway driver,
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: and he's still in that weird spot where if he
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: will get in an early accident at nineteenth, he can
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: lose pile of PD points back to fortieth, right, So
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: I won't be too much on Josh Berry. Now starting
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: at twentieth, we really get into the meat and potatoes
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: of what I'm playing for my playerpool on Sunday, Chris
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: Busher RFK excellent super speedway racer. Christopher Bell starting twenty first,
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: Joe Gibbs Racing excellent super speedway racer. Noah Gregson nothing
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: to lose, nothing to lose. He's I think he's projecting
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: fairly well, but I think he's missing a race or
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: two from his past stats because he was suspended for
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: a bit last year due to some nonsense. So I
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: think he's projecting maybe a bit better than what he should.
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: But still that won't stop me from playing Noah. Alex
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: Bowman Bowman the Showman has been on a fire recently,
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: no reason not to play him. Martin Trueck Junior is
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: still chasing his first victory in his final NASCAR season. However,
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: he has had horrible look at super speedway races. Could
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: that all change on? Absolutely? Do? I expect it to
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: Probably not. AJ Allmendinger. He does well at super speedway
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: races in the Infinity Series. He is in a team
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: car to sug colleague racing. I'll probably match the field
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: on AJ. I don't really have a hot take on AJ.
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: Bubba Wallace. I there is all kinds of drama surrounding
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: twenty three eleven racing right now, and none of it
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: concerns Bubba. None of it concerns Bubba while twenty three
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: eleven is suing NASCAR. Bubba got a brand new contract
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: and him and his wife delivered a baby boy, I believe,
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: just last weekend. And as a new father myself, I
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: know the kind of energy Bubba Wallace is feeling right now.
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: Right So I like Bubba Wallace. On Sunday, I will
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: probably I will probably be overweight on Bubba on Sunday.
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: Sam goes for Ross Chastain. He got the Monkey Office back.
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: He won, no reason he can't go back to back.
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: Corey la Joy. If you've watched these videos throughout the season,
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: or have discussed NASCAR with me in discord, you probably
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: have heard my not so nice feelings on Corky La Joy. However,
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: he is a talented super speedway race car driver. He
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: seems to be more suited for Atlanta than Daytona and Talladega. However,
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: he still has the ability to put the foot to
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: the floor and hold it flat and wide open. Right,
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: So no issues in playing Corky La Joy this weekend.
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: I'll probably go underweight on him just because I personally
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: don't like him as a driver, but match the field,
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: go overweight. Totally understand that as well. John Hunter, Ymachek
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: and Eric Jones. Eric Jones is projecting a way way
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: better than John Hunter is. John Hunter has been a
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: wrecking ball this season. Kind of expect the same out
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: of him on Sunday. He hasn't shown the best super
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: speedway prowess, but you never know he could put it.
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: He could put it together. Eric Jones, fine play on Sunday.
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: No issues there. Me and Migo Daniel Suarez love him.
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: Roll him out with confidence. Old Recky Stenhouse Junior. All right, friends, Look,
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: I know we have nicknamed not we, the NASCAR community
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: has nicknamed Ricky Stonhouse Junior Recky, and this season he's
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: pretty keasy. These these are earned that nick name right.
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: We've definitely had some collective sweats concerning Ricky Stenhouse this
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: year in the Ship at Nation discord for them to
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: not turn out how we wanted due to Ricky being Ricky,
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: and that does frighten me. On Sunday, however, I am
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: prepared to be hurt again and I will probably be
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: overweight on Ricky Stenhouse Junior. And speaking of overweight, I
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: will absolutely be overweight on some of these next drivers,
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: Anthony Alfredo, Cody Ware and Justin Haley Alfredo and where
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: they are going to get overlooked just because they are
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: Anthony Alfredo and Cody Ware. Look, if the big one happens,
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: they are in just as a good a position to
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: gain those spots than anyone else behind them, So feel
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: free roll them out without any hesitation. Justin Haley great
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: race car driver, upgraded finally from rick Ware to Spire Motorsports.
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: Love him. This week, Chase Briscoe, I kind of think
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: he's gonna go balls to the wall. He's in the chase.
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: He needs a win to advance, and I think is
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: this the end? I forget if this is the end
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: of the of the round, or if there's one or
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: two more races after this in this round of the playoffs.
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: The NASCAR playoffs can get kind of confusing because they
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: keep changing sh it around. But if Briscoe is gonna
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: win in my opinion, in these like last split of
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: races and ain't gonna be at the Roval next weekend, right,
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: so I think he's gonna be aggressive and try to
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: get stage points and try to get towards the front.
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: How's that going to end up for him at the
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: end of the day. I don't know. Probably gonna end
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: up matching the field on Chase Briscoe. Next up, Carson
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: josov Ar Love Host of r this weekend. Spier Motorsports
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: is basically baby Hendrick, So you're getting a Baby Hendrick
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: car in thirty seventh and host of AR has been
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: the shining light of that team all season long. Love
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: Host of Ar this Weekend. BJ McCloud. If you don't
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: know the story of BJ McLeod, he is awesome, awesome,
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: forty million dollar man. I think is what he he
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: sold the NASCAR chorter for and now he just lives life,
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: which is as dope as hell. Bj McCloud fifty one hundred.
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: I think he's what the second cheapest driver on the
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: slate he is. I don't give a shit. Give me
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: all the BJ McCloud On Sunday, Aine Smith, Remember what
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: I said about about Carson Joseovar a driver ago That
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: all applies to Zaye Smith, and Zayan has been trending
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: up argers lately. So love him this weekend and last,
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: but most certainly not least JJ Yaley. I gotta be honest.
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: I normally always hammer these last place drivers in my
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: super Speedway lineups. If they're a decent enough driver, I
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: will lock them. I'm not doing that with jj Ye
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: and it's not him the driver. I do like jj
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: a Ly as the driver a lot. It's the team.
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: He's in a ship box and there's no other way
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: to put it, but like a real one, like like
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: he's in a lawnmower. There's a chance he won't even
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: be able to keep up with the draft. I think
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: my play I want my drivers to at least be
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: able to keep up with the draft, which I'm not
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: sure if Jjyalely can. But once again, if one of these,
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: if there's a major accident and he's ten seconds behind it,
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: you should be able to dodge it, right, So I
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: will have some exposure to jjyally, but I won't nearly
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: go as hard as I normally do for that type
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: of play. I think that's it. Yeah, I again highly recommend,
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: highly recommend fading the top fourteen. Even if you want
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: to fade the top nineteen and just start your pool
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: with Chris Busher, that's great, right, Like, no no issues
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: with that. Again. No salary restrictions at all this weekend. None.
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: You want to leave nine thousand dollars on the table, great,
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: you want to leave five grand? Great. In fact, I
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: would almost recommend setting your salary range from like forty
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: grand to forty nine to nine. Like, there's, in my opinion,
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: no reason to max out salary this week none, none, whatsoever.
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: Increase your randomness in your points, in your ownership, increase
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: your max number of unique drivers. And that's it. That's
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: all I got. It's talladega, it's it's there's no practice
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: to dissect, it's just foot to the floor, hold the
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: hell on and hope you get six to six through
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: at the end, like it's a PGA tournament at the cut.
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: So that's it for me. It's as you can see
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: in my recording. It's one ten in the morning here
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: in Pennsylvania, UFC three or seven. Main event could be over,
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: or it could be could be still happening. I don't know,
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: so I'm gonna go check that out and have a
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: beer and go to bed. So that's it for me.
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: Good luck on Sunday. Any questions please feel free to
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: tag me, and as always, let's.
