• 1:07
  Speaker 4: Why?
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: Because it's time to talk fantasy football with our guy,
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: Brandon Funston. Hey, Funston, how are you, buddy? I'm doing good.
• 1:13
  Speaker 5: I'm not sitting in the middle of a Fred Meyer
• 1:16
  Speaker 5: parking lot in Monroe this week. I'm back in the
• 1:19
  Speaker 5: saddle in Mission Control, so I'm feeling much better this week.
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: Hey, you did a hell of a job last week
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: off the top of your head. Ashley, meet Brandon. Brandon,
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: meet Ashley. Ashley is my new producer. Does a great job.
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: She probably will, like every other producer, have questions off
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: the air for you.
• 1:34
  Speaker 6: No, I'm just going to try to use listener suggestions
• 1:36
  Speaker 6: to get my questions answered.
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: That's even better.
• 1:39
  Speaker 7: At least I'm honest.
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: Absolutely.
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: Absolutely.
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: That happens. It's amazing how many texts I get from
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: people that I haven't heard from. Hey, can you ask
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: Funston this? All right, let's get to it. Ashley, this
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: is how it works, just so you know. We have
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: just a great group of people that call in every
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: week right off the get-go, and then we put them
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: on the air. They ask Funston a question, and then
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: we cycle through a handful of phone calls, and then
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: we get to the text at 49451. We always start
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: at the same place, Edmonds, Washington. That's very close to
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: Ashley up there in Mill Creek. Edmonds, Washington. Our guy
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: Mike is on with Brandon Funston.
• 2:14
  Speaker 8: Hi, Mike.
• 2:20
  Speaker 7: His phone's up.
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: Mike, where are you? Mike, where are you? Where's Mike?
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: Where is Mike? Let's try this. I'm nervous about today
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: all of a sudden.
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: I know.
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: It is.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: I mean, week two is all right. Let's try Ricky
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: and Tacoma. We'll go back to Mike if we can
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: in a second. Ricky, are you there?
• 2:38
  Speaker 7: I have no idea what is happening. They're all there.
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: Hold on.
• 2:46
  Speaker 7: I'm going to try something. Just a sec.
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: Okay. You try something. You try something. All right. Funston,
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: while we do try something. uh and she does do
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: that let me let me ask you a quick question
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: actually a yell in my ear when you get stuff
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: figured out there after the first week this is an
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: interesting question who are some sleepers that are only rostered
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: in 50 of the leagues that you would pick up
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: who's out there that that just kind of is i
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: like the term sleeper funson who's out there that you're
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: kind of glancing at yeah.
• 3:14
  Speaker 5: Let's see so devon vele got a bunch of uh
• 3:17
  Speaker 5: he's a receiver with the saints they they play at
• 3:20
  Speaker 5: an insane pace and until jordan tyson's back he's going
• 3:24
  Speaker 5: to be you know somebody that's going to be regularly
• 3:27
  Speaker 5: in the mix um there he had a nice he
• 3:30
  Speaker 5: showed up pretty well um you know jalen coker was
• 3:33
  Speaker 5: 60 percent on so he was close i mean he's
• 3:37
  Speaker 5: looking like the go-to guy some people are arguing right
• 3:39
  Speaker 5: now that he'll be the number one guy over tet
• 3:41
  Speaker 5: mcmillan there uh I liked Caleb Douglas in Miami. You know,
• 3:47
  Speaker 5: if you watch the tape on him, he was wide
• 3:49
  Speaker 5: open for most everything. And I think that might just
• 3:52
  Speaker 5: be the way the teams, the defenses play Miami is
• 3:54
  Speaker 5: just like contain the edges, concentrate on, on HN and
• 3:59
  Speaker 5: Malik Willis and their, you know, potential to run or to,
• 4:02
  Speaker 5: you know, for them to throw the short area past
• 4:05
  Speaker 5: to HN. But like, it seems like it's opening up
• 4:07
  Speaker 5: some spots for the wide receiver. So Caleb Douglas is,
• 4:11
  Speaker 5: is pretty interesting. You know, Romeo Dobbs was a popular
• 4:15
  Speaker 5: waiver target this week.
• 4:18
  Speaker 8: To me, my problem with him is he's not an alpha.
• 4:20
  Speaker 8: He's not a chain mover.
• 4:21
  Speaker 5: He's not the kind of guy that goes and sticks
• 4:24
  Speaker 5: the 10-yard route and moves the chain. And we saw
• 4:27
  Speaker 5: that against Seattle. They brought him in to play off A.J.
• 4:31
  Speaker 5: Brown and kind of be that 50-50 ball guy. So
• 4:35
  Speaker 5: I'm a little bit dubious. I'm a little bit dubious
• 4:37
  Speaker 5: about that Patriots passing game right now, to be honest.
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: All right, let's try it again. Mike in Edmonds. Let's
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: see if we can get Mike on. Mike, you there?
• 4:44
  Speaker 9: I'm here.
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: Can you hear me? We've got success, ladies and gentlemen.
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: We have success. Mike in Edmonds. First up, fire away, buddy.
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: What do you.
• 4:55
  Speaker 7: Got?
• 4:56
  Speaker 9: Well, first, welcome aboard, Ashley.
• 4:57
  Speaker 10: Thank you. So I need full PPR. I need two
• 5:03
  Speaker 10: of these four guys, Mike Evans, Matthew Golden. Luther Burden
• 5:09
  Speaker 10: III for Amarian Hampton, and thanks.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: All right. Thank you, Mike.
• 5:15
  Speaker 5: Probably going to go with Amarian Hampton just for the
• 5:18
  Speaker 5: touchdown upside there, and I'm going to go with Mike Evans.
• 5:21
  Speaker 5: He had, you know, the Rams defense, the secondary stuff,
• 5:24
  Speaker 5: he showed out pretty well.
• 5:25
  Speaker 8: Looks like he's clearly going to be the guy.
• 5:27
  Speaker 5: They lost dribbling, so it even makes him even more
• 5:30
  Speaker 5: of a go-to guy, and he got Miami this week, so.
• 5:34
  Speaker 5: I like all those options, and Golden sort of jumped
• 5:37
  Speaker 5: up and was kind of a nice week one surprise
• 5:39
  Speaker 5: as well. He saw a ton of targets, but I
• 5:42
  Speaker 5: feel like those two guys are going to be very
• 5:44
  Speaker 5: safe for you, at least a.
• 5:45
  Speaker 8: Really good chance for them both to score a touchdown.
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: By the way, I just got a funny text from Quinn.
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: Remember when Mike and Edmonds was a touchdown-only league? Those
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: were the days.
• 5:54
  Speaker 8: I kind of just answered it like he was still
• 5:55
  Speaker 8: a touchdown-only league. I just gave him the guys I
• 5:58
  Speaker 8: felt like were going to be the best chance to score.
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: Exactly. This is how it works, Ash. We always go
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: in this order. It's an amazing group. We check in
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: with Ricky in Tacoma. Hi, Ricky. How are you?
• 6:10
  Speaker 9: How's it going, ladies and gentlemen?
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: We're good, buddy. We're good. What do you got? What
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: do you got going on? Yeah, and welcome aboard, Ashley.
• 6:17
  Speaker 7: Thank you.
• 6:18
  Speaker 9: All right.
• 6:18
  Speaker 4: All right, yeah, as far as me scoring standard or
• 6:22
  Speaker 4: half-point PPR, it doesn't matter too much for me, Brandon,
• 6:25
  Speaker 4: but I got these three quarterbacks in the mix of
• 6:27
  Speaker 4: all three. six leagues so i got drake may trevor
• 6:31
  Speaker 4: lawrence and jackson dart how would you rank them this
• 6:34
  Speaker 4: week uh probably confused which one yeah.
• 6:37
  Speaker 5: Probably in reverse order of what you just said like
• 6:40
  Speaker 5: i just said drake may i just don't know i
• 6:43
  Speaker 5: mean i think it's going to be a pretty conservative
• 6:45
  Speaker 5: passing game i kind of expect hunter henry might be
• 6:48
  Speaker 5: the guy that becomes his go-to uh you know main
• 6:51
  Speaker 5: guy but um he's gonna have to run a lot
• 6:53
  Speaker 5: for i think him to really post big big fantasy
• 6:56
  Speaker 5: numbers but The Trevor Lawrence thing, going into Denver after
• 7:00
  Speaker 5: the beating they just took last week, I'm a little
• 7:02
  Speaker 5: bit worried about that Denver defense with Trevor Lawrence.
• 7:06
  Speaker 8: But I have him second, and I would go Jackson
• 7:08
  Speaker 8: Dart first. He looked really good. He's running, but he's
• 7:11
  Speaker 8: running smartly.
• 7:13
  Speaker 5: The Rams, they're not full on the front line yet
• 7:17
  Speaker 5: with Myles Garrett out and Aaron Donald not there.
• 7:19
  Speaker 8: So give me Jackson Dart.
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: All right. Love it. Love it. This is also– I'll
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: give Ashley kind of the heads up. We go from
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: really one extreme to another with our second and third calls. Brandon,
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: would you agree with me with that? Ricky's always upbeat, right?
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: Just always fired up. Things are good. He might be
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: 0-5 in fantasy, although he's got like nine teams, so
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: he's always probably got one team that's good. Next up,
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: we've got a little bit different tone normally. We'll see
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: how week one went. Rob in Burien. You're next up.
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: What's up, Rob?
• 7:53
  Speaker 11: Who the hell knows David Montgomery still in this league?
• 7:55
  Speaker 8: Jesus.
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: Good first week going against David Montgomery there, Rob?
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: No, terrible.
• 8:06
  Speaker 11: He got 28 on me.
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: Ruined every damn thing. I mean, what the heck? All right,
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: what do you got for us this week, man?
• 8:12
  Speaker 11: Okay, I need three of these guys. George Pickens, Luther
• 8:18
  Speaker 11: Burden III, Parker Washington, or Sam Laporta.
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: So three of the four? Three of those four. Three
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: of the four. What do you think, Funston? Who do
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: you get right?
• 8:25
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I think I go with all the receivers just
• 8:26
  Speaker 5: for the upside. I like Sam Laporta to have a
• 8:28
  Speaker 5: good game. Yeah, I mean, probably Parker. Parker Washington is
• 8:34
  Speaker 5: the one that worries me, but he had 19 points
• 8:36
  Speaker 5: or more in PPR leagues in five straight games if
• 8:40
  Speaker 5: you count the playoffs last year. He's just on a
• 8:42
  Speaker 5: roll as a go-to guy there, so I don't think
• 8:44
  Speaker 5: you can see him. Probably came down to Burden and
• 8:46
  Speaker 5: Laporta for me, but I just love the upside for
• 8:49
  Speaker 5: the Chicago Bears this week, so. I think I want
• 8:52
  Speaker 5: Burden out there.
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: I'm going to bang through as many of these as
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: we can. We next head up to Sultan, Washington. Steven
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: in Sultan, the first of our Sultan two-step every week. Hi, Steven.
• 9:05
  Speaker 10: Can I fill the towel in like the Mariners season now, please?
• 9:09
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: What do you got, buddy? What do you got?
• 9:12
  Speaker 11: Super flex league.
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: I lost Darnold and Murray last week, so now I've
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: got to pick up somebody between these three great choices.
• 9:19
  Speaker 9: Locke, which I'm favoring. Malik Willis or Geno Smith?
• 9:24
  Speaker 8: I actually don't have a lot ranked higher than Malik Willis.
• 9:27
  Speaker 5: Just the rushing upside, it's going to be 30 to
• 9:30
  Speaker 5: 50 or more rushing yards every week. I think he's
• 9:36
  Speaker 5: a threat to get you 60 or 70 some weeks
• 9:38
  Speaker 5: as well.
• 9:38
  Speaker 8: He's just that much of a threat as a runner.
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: It helps.
• 9:42
  Speaker 8: So I'm going to.
• 9:43
  Speaker 5: I'm going to go ahead and say Malik Willis over
• 9:45
  Speaker 5: Drew Locke and Geno Smith. I have Geno and Drew
• 9:48
  Speaker 5: Locke back-to-back, but I have Malik Willis a few spots
• 9:50
  Speaker 5: ahead of him.
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: God, the Geno Smith horror show. My God. We stay
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: in Sultan. Derek in Sultan. You're up next. Hi, Derek.
• 10:00
  Speaker 9: I'm live in traffic right now as we speak.
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: Shocking. Shocking development. What do you got? I love it.
• 10:07
  Speaker 9: That's the real Sultan two-step. So I need one of
• 10:12
  Speaker 9: these two, and I'm wondering which one I should start
• 10:15
  Speaker 9: this week and which one I should– rely on the
• 10:17
  Speaker 9: rest of the season between Jaden Daniels or Drake May?
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I.
• 10:25
  Speaker 8: Don't know what that means. I mean, they're good enough
• 10:28
  Speaker 8: that when A.J.
• 10:29
  Speaker 5: Brown comes back that you sort of can go back
• 10:32
  Speaker 5: and forth from week to week with either one of them.
• 10:34
  Speaker 8: I'm definitely going Jaden Daniels this week.
• 10:35
  Speaker 5: I think it's going to match up against Dallas.
• 10:38
  Speaker 8: I actually have him as my number four quarterback this week.
• 10:42
  Speaker 8: Got the threat of the run. And yeah, so.
• 10:46
  Speaker 5: I don't know if that was like, should I then
• 10:48
  Speaker 5: get rid of Drake May? It's a tough time to
• 10:49
  Speaker 5: get rid of him because you're basically selling him low
• 10:52
  Speaker 5: or cutting him low. But I never like to have
• 10:56
  Speaker 5: two quarterbacks that good on the same roster because it
• 10:59
  Speaker 5: becomes a weekly nightmare trying to decide who to play.
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: All right, I'm going to get about three more in here, Ashley,
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: just so you know. Let's start first with Aaron in Vancouver.
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: What's up, Aaron? Hey, what's up, guys?
• 11:11
  Speaker 11: Just driving my UPS truck. Trying to get some fantasy answers, Todd.
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: Let's go.
• 11:15
  Speaker 11: Two of the three I need. I got Chase Brown,
• 11:19
  Speaker 11: Rome Madunze, Cam Scadaboo.
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: Two of the three.
• 11:24
  Speaker 8: Is it a PPR league?
• 11:26
  Speaker 11: It is a one-half point PPR.
• 11:29
  Speaker 5: Yeah, okay. Give me the certainty of the running backs.
• 11:34
  Speaker 5: You know, Rome could have a big day. I mean,
• 11:38
  Speaker 5: I really like the matchup against Minnesota.
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: Minnesota.
• 11:40
  Speaker 5: But I just feel like both of your running backs
• 11:43
  Speaker 5: have a good chance to score. I asked if it
• 11:44
  Speaker 5: was a PPR because Scadavo had a lot of points
• 11:47
  Speaker 5: through the air last year. He did not get targeted
• 11:49
  Speaker 5: in week one, which was a little bit surprising. But
• 11:51
  Speaker 5: like I said, Chase Brown, Cam Scadavo, guaranteed touches, pretty
• 11:56
  Speaker 5: decent shot at a touchdown.
• 11:57
  Speaker 8: I would follow those odds.
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: Beautiful. We're going to get a couple more in. Chris
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: and Burien, you're up next.
• 12:02
  Speaker 3: Hey, Chris.
• 12:04
  Speaker 12: Good afternoon, gentlemen. My apologies for missing last week. I
• 12:08
  Speaker 12: was hung over.
• 12:08
  Speaker 3: No worries.
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: No worries.
• 12:11
  Speaker 12: I am desperately in need of a tight end, full-point PPR.
• 12:14
  Speaker 12: These are my four options. Harold Fannin Jr., Mark Andrews,
• 12:19
  Speaker 12: Jake Ferguson, or the local favorite, Kate Odden.
• 12:23
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I have Kate Odden not in the mix there,
• 12:27
  Speaker 5: but I'm trying to look through.
• 12:29
  Speaker 8: You said Mark Andrews? Yep. Or did you not?
• 12:33
  Speaker 5: Okay, I think I have Mark Andrews of your guys.
• 12:35
  Speaker 5: I have him the highest just because– I'd be surprised
• 12:39
  Speaker 5: right now if Zay Flowers plays. He's got the hammy injury,
• 12:42
  Speaker 5: and they are down. They lost their other rookie receiver,
• 12:45
  Speaker 5: Jacoby Lane. So Mark Andrews could be in play as
• 12:49
  Speaker 5: a heavy target this week. I think it's a good
• 12:51
  Speaker 5: week to pick up a tight end. There's a bunch
• 12:53
  Speaker 5: of tight ends I like. David Njoku's out there. If
• 12:55
  Speaker 5: Ladd McConkie doesn't play, he put up some late fourth
• 12:59
  Speaker 5: quarter numbers with McConkie out. He becomes very interesting as
• 13:02
  Speaker 5: well in case he's floating out there. But I actually
• 13:04
  Speaker 5: have Andrews one spot ahead of even him.
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: Love it. Okay. Kyle in the claw. Enum scratch, we
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: call it. What's up, Kyle?
• 13:12
  Speaker 8: Hey, what's up?
• 13:13
  Speaker 12: How's Funston and Ian doing today?
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: We're good, man. We're good. How about you?
• 13:17
  Speaker 8: No complaints.
• 13:18
  Speaker 9: Oh, not too bad. Not too bad.
• 13:19
  Speaker 12: Nice sunny day.
• 13:22
  Speaker 10: Ash is doing an awesome job.
• 13:26
  Speaker 11: But I got one question, full PPR.
• 13:29
  Speaker 12: I need two.
• 13:33
  Speaker 11: DJ Moore.
• 13:38
  Speaker 12: Krishan, Judkins, and Pickens.
• 13:43
  Speaker 8: And is this a PPR?
• 13:44
  Speaker 9: I need two.
• 13:46
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I'm going to go DJ Moore for sure. I
• 13:49
  Speaker 8: love him this week. I thought he had a tough
• 13:50
  Speaker 8: matchup last week.
• 13:51
  Speaker 10: I saw him last week, and that was horrible.
• 13:56
  Speaker 5: Yeah, he was great, and now you get Detroit Lions.
• 13:59
  Speaker 5: I think it's the highest Vegas total of 55 in
• 14:03
  Speaker 5: that game. It's the highest game of the week, so
• 14:04
  Speaker 5: you want And he just looks like he's settling in
• 14:08
  Speaker 5: like Stephon Diggs back when.
• 14:09
  Speaker 8: He was there a couple years ago.
• 14:11
  Speaker 5: So then it comes down to Pickens and Judkins. If
• 14:14
  Speaker 5: it's PPR, I'm going to go Pickens.
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: All right. Those I didn't get to on the phones,
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: my apologies. That's 100% on me. We were out here
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: at Kraken. We were a little late getting in. So
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: that's on me. We'll get as many calls in as
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: we can next week. So thanks for calling in. We
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: won't get all the phone calls in. Ashley, if you've
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: got a little music, you can hit me. I'm going
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: to start with the very first text that came in today. Funston,
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: we had a bullseye. We had a 12-0-0-0-0. We had
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: a bullseye. So hopefully the 4-2-5s tuned back in are
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: still listening. Here you go. Schultz, Pitts, or Henry, tight end, premium,
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: full PPR.
• 14:49
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I mentioned I like Henry with A.J. Brown out.
• 14:53
  Speaker 8: I think he might lead this team. So I would
• 14:55
  Speaker 8: go him.
• 14:56
  Speaker 5: My one caveat, honestly, is Michael Penix is practicing full today.
• 15:01
  Speaker 8: He might actually get plugged back into the Atlanta lineup.
• 15:05
  Speaker 5: That might actually swing me towards Kyle Pitts because they
• 15:08
  Speaker 5: were a pretty good connection last year.
• 15:10
  Speaker 8: But as it stands right now, give me Hunter Henry.
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: We have six that came in one second after 12. Six.
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: People are crazy. Third and 11 is 1-0. That's our
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: buddy Keith. Half point PPR. Marshawn Lloyd, Tony Pollard, Travion
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: Henderson need one.
• 15:29
  Speaker 5: I think Marshawn Lloyd is the way to go there.
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: He.
• 15:33
  Speaker 5: He kind of split with Chris Brooks early, but towards
• 15:36
  Speaker 5: the end of that game, they were just feeding Lloyd
• 15:38
  Speaker 5: more and more, and I kind of feel like that's
• 15:40
  Speaker 5: where the momentum's going, that he'll get a bigger workload
• 15:43
  Speaker 5: this week.
• 15:43
  Speaker 8: So give me Marshawn Lloyd.
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: One second after PPR, choose one for my flex. Bucky Irving,
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: Christian Watson, or Terry McLaurin?
• 15:51
  Speaker 8: How many?
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: Do you see one? Oh my gosh, I don't know
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: how you can say it.
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: Irving, Watson, or Scary Terry.
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: I don't know how you can say it.
• 15:57
  Speaker 5: Christian Watson. I think you've got to go Christian Watson.
• 16:01
  Speaker 5: Bucky Irving would be my second choice, but Watson looked
• 16:04
  Speaker 5: really good last week.
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: Scary. Terry's a nightmare. Michael says, Herbert, Knicks, or Mahomes
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: need two. Must be a super flex.
• 16:11
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I think Mahomes is going to have a nice
• 16:13
  Speaker 8: week this week against Indianapolis.
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: So it's just Herbert or Knicks, right? Which one of
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: those two?
• 16:17
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm down on both of them this week, but
• 16:20
  Speaker 5: I think Knicks has a tougher matchup, so give me Herbert.
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: Let's see. Jordan Love, Drake May, or Baker Mayfield, PPR League?
• 16:30
  Speaker 8: I think I have.
• 16:32
  Speaker 5: Jordan Love, one spot ahead of Baker Mayfield for the
• 16:35
  Speaker 5: win there against the Jets. It's like the way his
• 16:39
  Speaker 5: combo of receivers. He wasn't very accurate, honestly, last week,
• 16:42
  Speaker 5: but it didn't really seem to matter. But they're throwing
• 16:45
  Speaker 5: the ball a lot more.
• 16:46
  Speaker 8: With Josh Jacobs out.
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: So, I mean, we're going to get to a couple
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: of the two seconds after the national. I'll have you
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: get three or four of the ones that have come
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: in recently. How's that?
• 16:54
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: Uh, let's see. Next one. Still two seconds afterwards. Uh,
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: full PPR need to waddle Debo Parker, Washington or Travis ATN.
• 17:05
  Speaker 8: Uh, I would go ATN and, uh, Parker, Washington, uh.
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: From the four to five Jordan Anderson, uh, Addison or
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: Kenny Gainwell.
• 17:14
  Speaker 13: Ooh.
• 17:15
  Speaker 5: Um, I guess because of the matchup, it's Cleveland. They
• 17:19
  Speaker 5: could be ahead in that one. It could be a
• 17:21
  Speaker 5: little bit of gain while action. I just watched all
• 17:23
  Speaker 5: of the Minnesota game, and you wouldn't know Addison was.
• 17:26
  Speaker 8: Out in the field for most of it.
• 17:27
  Speaker 5: So, I mean, I'm kind of waiting to see him
• 17:30
  Speaker 5: have a connection with Carson Wentz before I want to
• 17:33
  Speaker 5: climb on board.
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: Last one for me, Flex. Matt Stafford or Caleb Williams? Wow.
• 17:38
  Speaker 8: Oh, Caleb Williams, I have number three.
• 17:40
  Speaker 5: Going against Minnesota, I believe they give it the most–
• 17:44
  Speaker 5: They give the most fancy points to wide receivers, but
• 17:46
  Speaker 5: they were a team that was getting thrown on last week,
• 17:49
  Speaker 5: and Caleb Williams was amazing.
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: All right. Ashley, give me three or four that just
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: came in in the last half hour or whatever you
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: want to do. Fire away.
• 17:56
  Speaker 6: From Daniel, need two for PPR. Rasheed Rice, Xavier Worthy,
• 18:00
  Speaker 6: or Denzel Boston?
• 18:02
  Speaker 8: Yeah, Rasheed Rice. He didn't have a great first game,
• 18:04
  Speaker 8: but he's still their number one option.
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: He was invisible in that first game, right?
• 18:09
  Speaker 8: He really was. It'll be a little better matchup for
• 18:12
  Speaker 8: him this week.
• 18:13
  Speaker 10: All right.
• 18:13
  Speaker 7: I saw a lot of this one.
• 18:14
  Speaker 6: Is it worth it to keep Sam Darnold, or should
• 18:16
  Speaker 6: I drop him?
• 18:18
  Speaker 5: I mean, he was probably like quarterback 23-ish, you know,
• 18:23
  Speaker 5: just coming into the season fully healthy. I mean, you
• 18:26
  Speaker 5: don't certainly have to keep him unless it's a super
• 18:29
  Speaker 5: flex league. If it's a super flex league, I'd figure
• 18:31
  Speaker 5: out a way to keep him.
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: I would say, just real quick, I'll interject. Being at
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: practice yesterday, he was throwing. When we came out and
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: the media was allowed to come out there and he
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: saw that we were coming out, he immediately went back inside,
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: but he was throwing. It is definitely not long-term. Definitely
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: not long-term. But I think the bigger key is what
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: you said. He was 23rd coming into the season, right?
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: So it depends on what you have. All right, what else?
• 18:53
  Speaker 6: All right, last one here from the 206. Dobbins or
• 18:55
  Speaker 6: Dowdell and Sutton or Shakir? So they need one of
• 18:58
  Speaker 6: each of those.
• 18:59
  Speaker 8: Okay, Dobbins over Dowdell. And R.J. Harvey is a little
• 19:03
  Speaker 8: banged up, so he could get a little bit more run.
• 19:04
  Speaker 8: And then give me Court and Sutton over Shakir.
• 19:08
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: How about that? Look at that. Ash, see, this is
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: how we do it. I'm going to tell you, Ashley,
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: this is honestly, this might be the most stressful segment
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: we do during the week.
• 19:16
  Speaker 6: Well, it doesn't help when all of a sudden all
• 19:18
  Speaker 6: of the audio on the phones doesn't work, even though
• 19:20
  Speaker 6: they're all there.
• 19:20
  Speaker 7: I could talk to them all.
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: They were all there. They could hear you guys.
• 19:23
  Speaker 7: I'm like, what is going on?
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: And I say stressful. It's only stressful for the producer.
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: Funston and I just sit here and talk. And our
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: callers just call in. It's easy for us.
• 19:30
  Speaker 6: I'm like, don't hang up on someone. Don't put the
• 19:32
  Speaker 6: wrong person on the air.
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: I think the first time Jessamyn did it, she's like,
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: what the hell is going on here? You've got these
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: people that call in every week, and you've got this
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: and that. I said, this is it. We've been doing
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: this for, what did we figure out the other day, Funston?
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: Like 12 years, something like that at least?
• 19:46
  Speaker 8: I feel like for the last three years, we've been
• 19:47
  Speaker 8: saying 12 years. I would be shocked if it's true.
• 19:51
  Speaker 8: be shocked if it's like 15 now. We're like a
• 19:53
  Speaker 8: decade and a half.
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: Brandon Funston brought to you by our good friends at
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: Georgetown Beer. We love having them on every week. Great stuff.
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: Thanks to our friends at Georgetown. Make sure you swing
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: by the tap room, see the local selections on tap
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: as well. Funston, if people didn't get their questions answered,
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: and there were a lot of them today, what can
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: they do?
• 20:09
  Speaker 5: Yeah, please come and check out the fantasy football page
• 20:12
  Speaker 5: at The Athletic. We have a bunch of stuff out
• 20:14
  Speaker 5: there to get you ready for week two, including Jake
• 20:16
  Speaker 5: Seeley's rankings, always updated to the moment, and some other
• 20:20
  Speaker 5: really great riders as well. So lots for you to
• 20:23
  Speaker 5: sink your teeth into if you swing on by.
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: Love it. We'll talk to you next week, buddy. Thank you.
• 20:27
  Speaker 8: All right, thank you.
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: Brandon Funston joining us. We'll take a break, check a
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: couple text messages that aren't fantasy football, and then get
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: to Ashley's factor fiction pick coming up next. Welcome back.
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: 32 Bar and Grill. Ian Frenes with you. Ashley Ryan
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: back in the studio. She's got a fact or fiction
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: pick coming up in just a couple of seconds. Stand
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: by for that. Just a couple of texts.
• 20:53
  Speaker 11: 360.
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: I work at the stadium. I assume that's T-Mobile. Season's
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: over in two weeks. Actually, it's over next week. No
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: Christmas bonus this year. Okay, I'm going to say, I don't,
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: I'm assuming he's being serious. I don't know if that
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: is the case. Like our Are bonuses for those that
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: work down there dependent on playoffs? If that's the case,
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: that really sucks. That this guy's so underachieved. And, well,
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: I walked out of I don't, well, there's just the
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: basic if you get more work, because most of those guys,
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: most of those people are part-time employees, right? I walked
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: out of Climate Pledge Arena last year early, Ash, like
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: in October. This is the part we sometimes forget. I
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: walked out of there early October last year, and I
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: was talking to one of the guys as I'm going
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: to the parking garage, and he's like, hey, have a
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: good weekend. He goes, yeah, I'm back tomorrow. And he
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: was doing like Mariners and Seahawks over the next two days,
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: like playoffs. Seahawks regular season, Mariners playoff. And I remember
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: him saying how lucrative it is for the Mariners to
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: get in for so many people. That makes sense. And
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: it's true. It's very true. It's also good for businesses
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: down there. I mean, our friends at the Occidental Hall
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: right down there, right? And other establishments. An extra– what
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: did they play last year? Did they have– Two Detroit games, right?
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: And did they take Detroit out in two? Two Detroit
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: games and then three with the– so they had at least, what,
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: five home games last year? That's a lot. Yeah, it
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: is a lot.
• 22:18
  Speaker 8: It is a lot.
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: It's a lot of extra money. I mean, now, those
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: establishments at least had the World Cup this year. But, yeah,
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: for all the workers and the business owners down there, yeah,
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: not making the playoffs, it's bad for the Mariners. It's
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: bad for Dan Wilson and his staff. It's bad for
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: them too.
• 22:32
  Speaker 7: Yep, it absolutely is.
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: Not good. All right, let's get to it. We've got
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: a Factor Fiction. Let's give away some money.
• 22:38
  Speaker 3: Here we go. We're set to go.

• 23:26

• 23:29

• 23:32
  Speaker 1: out of the randomizer. Actually, it is a randomizer, right?
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: It's like a little app or something we have.
• 23:37
  Speaker 6: I use a random.org is the website that I use
• 23:42
  Speaker 6: for all of that stuff.
• 23:42
  Speaker 7: So I'd assume that Anders does the same thing.
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: Well, that's a big assumption.
• 23:46
  Speaker 7: Or else he just closes his eyes and points his
• 23:49
  Speaker 7: mouse at something.
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: He might. The more times you get a correct pick,
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: the more chances you have to win $ 1, 000. And most importantly,
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: cumulative is big here. Whoever has the most correct picks
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: during the course of the year. will receive a $ 10, 000
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: grand prize courtesy of the Lucky Eagle Casino and Hotel.
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: Let me take a quick glance, Ashley, as you get
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: ready for your pick. Earlier today, what do we have?
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: Let's see. Jacksonville plus two and a half was Chuck's
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: pick this morning. Greg took Pittsburgh. He's also a Pittsburgh native,
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: by the way, so keep that in mind. Pittsburgh plus
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: five and a half at the Patriots. Ashley, what say you?
• 24:25
  Speaker 6: Well, I had to look through this like seven times
• 24:27
  Speaker 6: because i thought how has nobody picked this it seems
• 24:30
  Speaker 6: like such an easy thing which probably means that there's
• 24:33
  Speaker 6: a reason it seems easy and it's probably not but
• 24:36
  Speaker 6: i'm just gonna say these two teams put up 98
• 24:39
  Speaker 6: points last week and they're over under is set at
• 24:42
  Speaker 6: 48 give me minnesota at chicago over 48 oh.
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: Well i mean if ben johnson has his way he'll
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: just do that on.
• 24:50
  Speaker 8: His own Right, exactly.
• 24:52
  Speaker 6: I mean, Chicago gave up 37 points last week and
• 24:55
  Speaker 6: scored 59.
• 24:55
  Speaker 7: Yes, they did.
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure.
• 24:58
  Speaker 6: I mean, it seems like too easy of an over,
• 25:00
  Speaker 6: which is why I'm like, well, there's probably something, but
• 25:02
  Speaker 6: I don't know.
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: I'm taking it. Are you telling me you think Vegas
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: is wrong? Never. They aren't?
• 25:09
  Speaker 8: No.
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: Not normally. No, they're not. So, by the way, we're
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: all in on that game. I took Chicago earlier in
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: the week minus three. Yeah, you're going Minnesota-Chicago over 48 points.
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: Fact 49451. If you disagree, fiction 49451. Text in right
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: now if you agree with Ashley. And she's a good
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: person to agree with because she was 2-0 last week.
• 25:30
  Speaker 7: I'm hoping I can keep it going this week.
• 25:32
  Speaker 8: We'll see.
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: I'm checking my scores last week. Have they changed? No,
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: they have not.
• 25:36
  Speaker 8: No, it's the same.
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: It's the same.
• 25:37
  Speaker 7: It's weird how that works.
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: Damn. All right. I was not 2-0 last week. Ashley
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: was the only person on the station that was 2-0
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: last week. So she's saying Minnesota and Chicago over 48.
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: Text FACT if you agree, 49451. If you disagree, FICTION, 49451. God,
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: that seems low. That is crazy.
• 25:57
  Speaker 7: That's what I'm saying. I know there's a reason, right?
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: Carson Wentz, maybe?
• 26:02
  Speaker 6: But he was playing in the game. I mean, Kyler
• 26:05
  Speaker 6: Murray got hurt early, and they're saying he could even
• 26:07
  Speaker 6: be ready this week.
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: Yes. I should mention that the bounce back is working.
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: I just double-checked.
• 26:12
  Speaker 11: Oh, good.
• 26:13
  Speaker 7: Okay, I was checking, but it hadn't reloaded yet.
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so if you are getting a bounce back, if
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: your vote's counted, you'll get a bounce back. It says,
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: we receive your text of fiction. No, I'm just kidding.
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: We receive your text of fact for the Thursday Furness
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: Show or fact or fiction window. You'll get that bounce back.
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: If you do not get that, you probably misspelled either
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: fact or fiction. Which are two tough words. That would
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: say a lot about you, though. Like, I think, you know,
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: spelling's not what it used to be. We all have spellcheck.
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: You know, like when Ashley and I were growing up,
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: we didn't have spellcheck. We had to pick up a
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: thing called a dictionary sometime.
• 26:45
  Speaker 6: I know.
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: Look at that. Thumb through it. And then if you
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: really didn't know how to spell it, that was even
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: more challenging because, wait for it, you didn't know how
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: it was spelled. You couldn't even get close to how
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: it was spelled, and bad things were happening. So, yeah,
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: fiction or fact, 49451. Text in right now. Ashley Ryan
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: going Minnesota and Chicago over 48. That's in Chicago. Chicago,
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: two straight home games to start.
• 27:06
  Speaker 3: Crazy.
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: I know, right? I know. That's a good one. Did
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: anybody take tonight's game, by the way? Oh, they did, yeah.
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: Anders took Detroit plus four and a half at Buffalo.
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: The game tonight, by the way, Detroit-Buffalo in opening the
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: new Buffalo Stadium in the regular season, at least. 5-15
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: right here on KJR. I think that's the only.
• 27:22
  Speaker 6: No one has touched the Seahawks game, which I was
• 27:25
  Speaker 6: kind of surprised by.
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: I think there's a fear factor there.
• 27:27
  Speaker 7: I think there is.
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: I think there's a massive fear factor there because, I mean, again,
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: we all react to week one, but Arizona looked good.
• 27:35
  Speaker 8: Yeah, they did.
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: Like Arizona didn't, I didn't think anybody watching that game.
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: And again, I watch it. Like probably a lot of
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: you guys watch it. Ashley's got nine TVs. You know,
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: we had, we have two normally, but, but without the
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: Seahawks playing, we just go with the ones Saturday or Sunday.
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: We go with two. We bring the second TV down
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: and it's, it's a two, it's a two TV day,
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: red zone, one Seahawks on the main one at one o'clock. But,
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: but I, if you watch that game, I, Arizona kicked
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: their ass. It wasn't like, well, that was a fluky win.
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: Herbert didn't throw three fourth-quarter interceptions like Drake May did.
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: That didn't happen. I think that's why people are staying
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: away from that game.
• 28:15
  Speaker 7: It makes sense. Even the over-under, I don't know. It
• 28:18
  Speaker 7: just surprised me a bit.
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: I need to get more into over-unders. I'm just bad
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: with those.
• 28:23
  Speaker 6: That's why I couldn't believe no one had taken that one.
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: My buddy... My buddy, the Viking, we call him.
• 28:30
  Speaker 9: Jamie.
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: But we call him the Viking because he looks like
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: a little Scottish Viking.
• 28:34
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: He did a parlay. I don't know how many games
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: were the early window last Sunday. He did an all-under
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: parlay first quarter only last Sunday.
• 28:47
  Speaker 11: Oh, my God.
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: And he hit it. Wow. Like five to win a
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: 1,500 or something.
• 28:52
  Speaker 4: Whoa.
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: It was crazy. Yeah, it was nuts. The thing that's
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: crazy about that is think about what happened in that early.
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: There were big scores being put up. Yeah, absolutely. Not
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: in the first quarter. There you go. Some gambling advice.
• 29:04
  Speaker 7: Viking smart.
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: I like betting the over. It's an American thing to do.
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: Go over, go big all the time. America, USA. All right.
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: We'll take a break. Come back. Softee checks in with
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: us next. Don't forget, one more time, text FACT to 49451,
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: Minnesota at Chicago, over 48. If you disagree with Ashley,
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: you're a fool, but you can text FICTION to 49451.
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: You're trying to win a $ 1, 000 weekly prize. $ 10, 000 grand
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: prize from Lucky Eagle Casino and Hotel. You can't win
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: unless you text FACTORFICTION right now. Do it. Softie next.
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: then dave softy mauler i believe i'm guessing hanging out
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: at the 520 bar and grill yeah.
• 29:52
  Speaker 3: Would that be annoying if i did that all show.
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: Long no it already is just do it three to
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: seven What are the odds I could do that for
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: two hours? Not very good. Yeah, not very good. I'd
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: say less than good. You've got to be tired already. Oh, man.
• 30:07
  Speaker 3: It is amazing what tires me out now at my age.
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: Honestly. Everything does. God. I'm the same way, buddy.
• 30:13
  Speaker 3: You're using my eyes too much. You're going to close
• 30:15
  Speaker 3: my eyes, honey.
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: Hey, I don't know if you saw this. It just crossed. No,
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: I didn't see it. Okay.
• 30:21
  Speaker 3: I didn't see it.
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: So, LSU... I did see this. Ole Miss sent an
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: email out to its students and others, and then it's
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: published in the local newspaper, the Clarion Ledger, which I
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: subscribe to. Who wouldn't? Anybody wearing opposing colors in the
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: student section at Ole Miss on Saturday will not be
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: allowed in that section. Well, that's the problem. That's the problem.
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: If you remember back during the baseball season, based on
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: Lane Kiffin and LSU, there was an LSU fan that showed,
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: actually a couple that were in the student section, I
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: guess it was in the outfield at LSU. And SEC baseball.
• 30:57
  Speaker 3: Is big, right?
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: Like it's a big deal.
• 31:00
  Speaker 6: Huge.
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: And the LSU fan was out there chirping at some people,
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: and then he was getting escorted out, and then it
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: turned into a full-fledged brawl when somebody threw a drink
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: on him and his buddy grabbed some student and just
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: beat the you-know-what out of him.
• 31:12
  Speaker 3: On the ground. Well, I don't really see any problem
• 31:14
  Speaker 3: with any of that, to be honest with you, but
• 31:16
  Speaker 3: that's just me.
• 31:16
  Speaker 4: Nope.
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: You don't have to be a fool. Wouldn't you have
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: to be a real fool to do that?
• 31:22
  Speaker 13: If you're an Oregon fan and you walk into the
• 31:24
  Speaker 13: Husky student section during an Oregon game, you deserve to
• 31:27
  Speaker 13: get your ass kicked. I think it actually says on
• 31:29
  Speaker 13: the back of your ticket, if you are a visiting
• 31:31
  Speaker 13: fan and you walk into the student section, you will
• 31:34
  Speaker 13: be destroyed.
• 31:35
  Speaker 3: That's what it says.
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: Not just be destroyed.
• 31:38
  Speaker 4: No.
• 31:39
  Speaker 3: Destroyed. Like Ivan Drago. Whatever we hit, we destroy it.
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: We destroy.
• 31:44
  Speaker 3: You walk into our section, you find out. We break neck, okay?
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: What's the worst atmosphere you've seen with a Washington.
• 31:53
  Speaker 3: Oregon game? Oregon State basketball.
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: Horrible.
• 31:56
  Speaker 8: What?
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: Really?
• 31:57
  Speaker 3: I've told you this before.
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: No, I don't remember this.
• 32:00
  Speaker 3: 20 years ago. Okay. Nasty, horrific. I mean, you know me.
• 32:04
  Speaker 3: It takes a lot to offend me.
• 32:05
  Speaker 12: Yes.
• 32:05
  Speaker 3: Like, a lot.
• 32:06
  Speaker 7: Yes.
• 32:06
  Speaker 3: All right? I got a very profane mouth. I think
• 32:08
  Speaker 3: you're aware of that by now.
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 32:10
  Speaker 3: I don't share it with the audience, but, you know,
• 32:12
  Speaker 3: you know my drill.
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: I know your drill.
• 32:14
  Speaker 3: It was horrible.
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: Disgusting.
• 32:16
  Speaker 3: Press row.
• 32:17
  Speaker 13: It was either press row or sitting like right behind
• 32:20
  Speaker 13: the Husky bench and the student section was behind us.
• 32:22
  Speaker 13: And I've heard things from those people down there in
• 32:25
  Speaker 13: Corvallis that I've never heard from anybody since.
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: Including Oregon fans.
• 32:29
  Speaker 3: Oh, 100%.
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: God, I would never have guessed that. Honestly, I would
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: have never guessed that.
• 32:33
  Speaker 3: Tell you what I'll do.
• 32:34
  Speaker 13: When I go to Eugene this year on the sideline,
• 32:38
  Speaker 13: I will record the audio that I hear from the
• 32:40
  Speaker 13: fan base on the sideline. And I will wear a
• 32:43
  Speaker 13: sign that says, I'm softy.
• 32:47
  Speaker 3: All right?
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: I like it. We will egg them on.
• 32:53
  Speaker 3: All right? We will antagonize them a little bit. All right?
• 32:56
  Speaker 3: Be like a moth to a flame. Bring it on.
• 32:59
  Speaker 13: You are a masochist, my friend. You are an absolute masochist.
• 33:03
  Speaker 13: We've heard some pretty bad stuff. You know, because the
• 33:06
  Speaker 13: old wazoo, you had to walk outside and go through
• 33:08
  Speaker 13: this mass of humanity.
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: Oh, God, that's right. To get to the locker room.
• 33:12
  Speaker 3: And they've cleaned that up a little bit.
• 33:13
  Speaker 13: Oregon State was the same way, having to walk outside
• 33:15
  Speaker 13: the stadium and get to the locker room.
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: Oregon State was a long-ass walk into that little, like,
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: tiny locker room that was smaller than the one in
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: the Coliseum in L.A. Yeah, that was bad. That was bad.
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: That was bad.
• 33:26
  Speaker 13: Oregon State Guild Coliseum was, for me, the worst it
• 33:28
  Speaker 13: ever got. I mean, I heard some pretty bad stuff
• 33:30
  Speaker 13: in Philadelphia at Veterans Stadium when the Mariners were there
• 33:32
  Speaker 13: in 2002.
• 33:34
  Speaker 3: That was terrible.
• 33:35
  Speaker 13: I've told you that story about the home teams provide
• 33:38
  Speaker 13: the bat boys for the visiting teams, and the Phillies
• 33:41
  Speaker 13: decided to provide a bat boy for the Mariners that
• 33:44
  Speaker 13: I'm telling you probably was 11 years old but had
• 33:47
  Speaker 13: a weight problem.
• 33:48
  Speaker 3: Oh, God. Massive weight problem. Like the guy grew up
• 33:52
  Speaker 3: to be the 30-10 founder. Oh, my God.
• 33:55
  Speaker 13: And he was just hearing it, hearing it from the
• 33:58
  Speaker 13: Philly fans.
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: Wow. Ichiro was hearing it. God. You know what's wild?
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: I've been to Philly for, in the new stadium, at least,
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: I want to say three or four games, including a
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: playoff game. And I never thought Philly was bad compared to,
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: the place that I thought was the worst was Cleveland.
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: Cleveland was bad. Cleveland was really bad. We were doing stuff.
• 34:22
  Speaker 3: I've never seen a Browns game, but I was there
• 34:24
  Speaker 3: for an Indians-Mariners series.
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and they, the press box there, the glass of
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: the press box, it goes right, like the The last
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: row of the section for fans literally is right up
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: next to the glass. And these guys would sit there,
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: and they looked back, and I think they always know
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: where the visiting media sits, and they're thinking that we're
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: all sitting there cheering for the Seahawks or whatever. And
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: they'll literally, every time something happens, turn around, pound the glass,
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: flip you off. And it's like soundproof glass, screaming at you,
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: and you're like, whatever, dude. It's like when you go
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: to the aquarium and the shark's on the other side
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: of the glass. Oh, yeah, right.
• 35:00
  Speaker 5: I'm okay.
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: And then the glass breaks and the shark comes after you.
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: That did cross my mind. I said, at some point,
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: because these guys have been beating on this glass for
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: years probably, at some point it's going to be breaking.
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: I hope it's not when I'm here. But, yeah, those
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: guys are nuts. Those guys are absolutely crazy. I had
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: a guy outside the Joker Pub in Issaquah.
• 35:15
  Speaker 3: I remember the old– is.
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: The Joker Pub still there? I think it's still there, yeah.
• 35:18
  Speaker 3: I had a guy slash my tires outside the Joker Pub.
• 35:21
  Speaker 1: Did you have a Husky sticker on your car or something?
• 35:24
  Speaker 3: No, but I think people knew it was my car.
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: They saw you get out and go, huh? What the
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: hell were you doing at that bar?
• 35:30
  Speaker 3: We were doing a remote. I don't know.
• 35:33
  Speaker 13: They wanted us out there for some reason. They wanted
• 35:35
  Speaker 13: to make money. They knew that we brought people with us.
• 35:38
  Speaker 13: Is that what it was?
• 35:39
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: We bring Softie out here.
• 35:40
  Speaker 13: I once hosted the Mike Price show with Bob Robertson.
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: I remember that. That's crazy.
• 35:46
  Speaker 3: Back in the day, there was a lot of weird
• 35:48
  Speaker 3: stuff going on, man.
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: Yes, there is.
• 35:49
  Speaker 3: A lot of weird stuff.
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: 520 today. I chose a path and I chose it.
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: 520 Bar and Grill today, I believe. You have a
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: short show because I just had Ross Tucker on for
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: his weekly visit, and he said he's doing a game
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: tonight at 515 that we're carrying. So apparently you're off
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: early today.
• 36:06
  Speaker 13: New Bill Stadium, Highmark Stadium, opening up Bill's Lines. We
• 36:09
  Speaker 13: got that for you. We got Rick Neuheisel. We got
• 36:11
  Speaker 13: Mike Holmgren, courtesy of VenueKings.com.
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: Love it.
• 36:14
  Speaker 3: At 4. And then we got Brett Boone, the penultimate
• 36:18
  Speaker 3: visit of the year for Brett Boone.
• 36:20
  Speaker 4: Wow.
• 36:20
  Speaker 3: Because there will be no playoffs for this baseball team.
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: What if they go on a run?
• 36:24
  Speaker 3: Then there might be playoffs for this baseball team.
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: Is that how that works? It's how it works.
• 36:30
  Speaker 13: Do you imagine if they win the division at 80
• 36:32
  Speaker 13: and 82?
• 36:34
  Speaker 3: And then just go on a run?
• 36:35
  Speaker 7: Be still Mariners?
• 36:37
  Speaker 3: Well, it's possible. I mean, if there's any sport where
• 36:39
  Speaker 3: it could happen, it's baseball.
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: It's the one sport that could happen. But, I mean,
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: you have to have the other two teams. A 7-9
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: team might win a division in the NFL. And they
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: might even win a game in the wild card round.
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: But they ain't making a run to the Super Bowl.
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: If there's any team, any sport where a team could
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: make a long run, it certainly is baseball. Everything just
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: gets reset, guys.
• 36:58
  Speaker 3: You know that, right?
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: Records don't matter. Is that what happens?
• 37:01
  Speaker 3: Throw them out. Throw them out. Throw them out. Throw
• 37:03
  Speaker 3: them out.
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: Throw them out. All right, that's all coming up. Soft
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: at the 520. Go see him. Drinks on Fane today,
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: is that right?
• 37:08
  Speaker 3: Absolutely. Drinks on Fane.
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: Beautiful. Head on out there to the 520.
• 37:12
  Speaker 13: Double shots of McCallum, the 35-year-old, by the way, on Fane.
• 37:16
  Speaker 13: Fane just got a big raise, by the way.
• 37:18
  Speaker 3: What's that? He got a big raise. You didn't know that?
• 37:21
  Speaker 8: No, why?
• 37:22
  Speaker 3: KJR bumped him up. He's buying.
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: Wow. Wow. Okay, well, you know what?
• 37:26
  Speaker 7: Okay, I know you're lying now.
• 37:28
  Speaker 3: Ashley, you got bad news. You're fired, but Dick got
• 37:30
  Speaker 3: a raise.
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: Okay. Jackson's out. Jackson's out. Ashley's out. Jess is out.
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: Ian's out. We're all out. Dick's the only one left.
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: But he's buying drinks, so that's a good thing.
• 37:39
  Speaker 3: He is buying drinks.
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: We're all winners at that point. All right. Softie, along
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: with Mike Holmgren, coming up next.
• 37:45
  Speaker 13: For the mild-mannered and marginally objectionable Ian Furness, this is
• 37:50
  Speaker 13: Paddle Day saying so long, everyone.
