Speaker 1: Friends Forever, Do Do Do Do Do Do Do Do
Speaker 1: Do Do Don too. Yeah, as the Fantasy fast Friends
Speaker 1: Forever here at the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. I'm sad
Speaker 1: for Reggie Stample. I am Greg Sausman. Freggie will be
Speaker 1: here in just a moment. Of course. Today on the program,
Speaker 1: it's all about one thing, and that obviously is super
Speaker 1: Bowl fifty three is not really about one thing because
Speaker 1: I need to give Frank an opportunity to to go
Speaker 1: off right after yesterday's trade for the Knicks, I would
Speaker 1: feel like it wouldn't be fair to go all in
Speaker 1: with the Super Bowl and not have the ability to
Speaker 1: give Franky the opportunity. It made me really to give
Speaker 1: you my thoughts on this deal. We're really get in
Speaker 1: the super Bowl. Obviously, we're gonna give you our DFS picks.
Speaker 1: Frank will let you know what he bet on yesterday
Speaker 1: in Jersey. You'll be able to ask him exactly how
Speaker 1: he feels now that he's eating bread, he's eating bacon,
Speaker 1: he's drinking beer, that life is good and Frankie's back
Speaker 1: to normal again. You'll get to hear all of this
Speaker 1: over the next hours hour And with that, I have
Speaker 1: one question, what's going on? Reggae? Reggy? The truth is
Speaker 1: I got held up in the bathroom because I've been
Speaker 1: consuming too many carbs. My body wasn't ready for it.
Speaker 1: It was not ready for it. How do you feeling that? Oh?
Speaker 1: And what's lunch? Mixed? I honestly I feel mixed. There's
Speaker 1: a lot going on. I don't want to touch too
Speaker 1: much on like the portazinguis trade, because I want to
Speaker 1: get into the Super Bowl. This is your chance though.
Speaker 1: But yeah, there's a there's a lot going on between
Speaker 1: between the NBA, between the NFL. Beer back in my life, bread,
Speaker 1: back in my life. There's a lot going on, Greg,
Speaker 1: So what's for lunch? I don't have anything planning yet.
Speaker 1: I have apples in my bag. I think yes or
Speaker 1: to Yang City's gonna buy me lunch? I have to
Speaker 1: ask you serious, I'll take a free lunch, all right
Speaker 1: before we get into the super Bowl. I want to
Speaker 1: go water wall honestly with super Bowl, of course, before
Speaker 1: we get into it is well thought about that you
Speaker 1: don't forget about our guy, Jim Day. Sorry Jim. Hey guys,
Speaker 1: how are you doing? Happy Friday? And we get football
Speaker 1: in a couple of days. I can't wait. How did
Speaker 1: you sleep last night? I slept really good the last
Speaker 1: two nights, actually because I met. I was pounding it
Speaker 1: a few days before that. So lasterday nights I've gotten
Speaker 1: some nice early sleep and I'm good to god. You
Speaker 1: did you you something to help enhance your sleep? No, no,
Speaker 1: I never take anything go to sleep, all right. That
Speaker 1: was my attempt at some kind of frenzy goon squad reference.
Speaker 1: We're sorry, you know you didn't know. I don't usually
Speaker 1: have that problem. After the last couple of days, I
Speaker 1: definitely didn't have that problem. I had that bed. I
Speaker 1: was done. Yeah, So before we end the super Bowl,
Speaker 1: gym and I'm sorry to interrupted this, But Frank, I
Speaker 1: gotta get your thoughts. What happened yesterday, you were on
Speaker 1: the air. You went nuts yesterday off the air, on
Speaker 1: the air. Now's your chance, your show man, take it away. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I've had a little bit more time to reflect on
Speaker 1: it regarding Oh, look, there's a lot of moving parts
Speaker 1: when it comes to this trade with stops porzingis to
Speaker 1: the Dallas Mavericks. Obviously, if you're a Mavericks fan, if
Speaker 1: you're thinking about becoming a Mavericks fan, uh, it's a
Speaker 1: good time to do so because they have a great
Speaker 1: young core between Luca don Check and Kris stops porzingis.
Speaker 1: Rick Carlisle was on a radio show yesterday in Dallas
Speaker 1: and said he's hoping that these two can be the
Speaker 1: next coming of Dirk Navitsky and Steve Nash, except only taller.
Speaker 1: So great for them. I joked yesterday on a Twitch
Speaker 1: show about potentially moving to Dallas, and I'm still looking
Speaker 1: into that, but from a Knicks perspective, And I don't know,
Speaker 1: maybe I was a little bit premature when I killed
Speaker 1: the Jets for signing Adam Gaze, because because ultimately you
Speaker 1: gotta see what he does on the field, like, the
Speaker 1: results are gonna speak for themselves one and that will
Speaker 1: really determine what that signing was. And I think the
Speaker 1: same holds true for this trade, right, Like, there's there's
Speaker 1: a huge amount of risk involved trading away your best
Speaker 1: player probably since Patrick Ewing. I'm Hewing now your best
Speaker 1: player that they've drafting. We're calling Patrick Hewing is best,
Speaker 1: the best player they've had since Patrick Hewing? Why why
Speaker 1: do you keep calling Patrick Hewing? How Patrick Ewing? I
Speaker 1: know that, and that's just how I say it. What
Speaker 1: you're really gonna interrupt my analysis? Not trick Healing? That
Speaker 1: was crazy. Continue. I don't even want to do it anymore.
Speaker 1: Go ahead, talk come on then. Anyway, there's a lot
Speaker 1: of risk involved when you trade away a player of
Speaker 1: this caliber just to clear up the books. That's basically
Speaker 1: what they did. This is a salary dump and you
Speaker 1: trade away the best player that you've drafted since Patrick Ewing.
Speaker 1: There it is um and you're doing so because of
Speaker 1: mistakes that you've made yourself or maybe that Phil Jackson
Speaker 1: mad like that's the staff. That's what we're still suffering
Speaker 1: from because they need to trade away a guy like
Speaker 1: Courtney Lee and Tim Harway Jr. Remember they signed those contracts.
Speaker 1: It is not like they took on those contracts from
Speaker 1: someone else. They signed those contracts, and now all stimately
Speaker 1: they paid the price by trying to get those contracts
Speaker 1: off their books, by trading away one of their best players,
Speaker 1: uh that they've drafted absolutely basically like this was a
Speaker 1: guy who kind of like brought hope back to the
Speaker 1: organization the unicorn, right, but there you know, the risk
Speaker 1: is you're doing so hoping that you can sign guys
Speaker 1: like you don't have a verbal commitment. Now, I will
Speaker 1: say this, if a guy like Kevin Durant or Kyrie
Speaker 1: Irving does end up in New York, that is evidence
Speaker 1: that tampering does exist, because there's no way you make
Speaker 1: a trade like this unless you have some kind of
Speaker 1: deal behind closed doors, some handshake agreement, something, unless you're
Speaker 1: the Knicks, Unless like they legitimately are just doing this
Speaker 1: hoping that they get someone. And we joked about it yesterday,
Speaker 1: they probably end up with guys like Tobias Harrison, like
Speaker 1: Chris Middles, like the Marcus Cousins, and it's like all
Speaker 1: this was for nought, but really we won't be able
Speaker 1: to judge this trade until free agency and see what
Speaker 1: they're able to do, because that's the hope. In terms
Speaker 1: of the package they brought back really underwhelming, obviously to
Speaker 1: expiring contracts. I was hoping that they would at least
Speaker 1: be able to get a young asset that has a
Speaker 1: right or future. I don't know the Dennis m Jr.
Speaker 1: Is that player. They do get two first round picks.
Speaker 1: One is a top ten protected first round pick. One
Speaker 1: is unprotected. So that's pretty cool. Um, yeah, you won't
Speaker 1: be able to judge it until you see what they're
Speaker 1: able to do in free agency. But ultimately, the Knicks
Speaker 1: is traded away their best player since Patrick ewing Eing
Speaker 1: because of a salary dumb move. Now, I think you're
Speaker 1: you're your idea of this trade is pretty spot on, right,
Speaker 1: Like your analysis is right there, and I agree with that,
Speaker 1: And it's very frustrating that you have to use your
Speaker 1: best player to ultimately don't salary that you yourself created
Speaker 1: and brought on the books. Like that's what's very frustrating.
Speaker 1: If it wasn't the Knicks, you would look at this
Speaker 1: trade be frustrated by Porzingis. But like what they're doing,
Speaker 1: they're clearing cap space. They got two first round packs
Speaker 1: rather than training picks away for once, one of which
Speaker 1: is completely unprotected potentially in one pending that the Mavericks
Speaker 1: don't have a top five draft pick this year, because
Speaker 1: that's the only way it's protected. The fact is, you
Speaker 1: get two first round picks, you get loads of cap
Speaker 1: space you have then you have the number one overall
Speaker 1: pick potentially this year. There could be an influx of
Speaker 1: talent in the garden. And if they bring in two
Speaker 1: big time names, I'm talking Kyrie and Durant. I'm talking
Speaker 1: about Kemba and Jimmy Butler. I remember talking at like
Speaker 1: big time names. You bring in big names here with
Speaker 1: the two first round picks coming, you would like it.
Speaker 1: I mean theoretically, any other team you would like the move.
Speaker 1: But with the Knicks, they have not gotten the trust
Speaker 1: of the New York fans, their owned fans. You don't
Speaker 1: give them the benefit of the doubt, and you're right
Speaker 1: not to do it. They have not earned that. After
Speaker 1: legitimately your entire life, all twenty seven years of your life,
Speaker 1: they've been horrific. Every decision they made has been wrong.
Speaker 1: They were actually pretty good, but I was too young
Speaker 1: to even remember stuff, right, twenty years eight years old, right,
Speaker 1: So the last twenty years of your life, they made
Speaker 1: every wrong decision you could possibly make, over and over
Speaker 1: and over again. In they cleared all the space for
Speaker 1: Lebron and as you pointed out all week, they got him.
Speaker 1: Are Stodemeyer if they're doing this again and clearing out
Speaker 1: all this space and they don't actually have a shot
Speaker 1: at Kyrie or don't actually have a shot at Kevin Durant.
Speaker 1: This is a joke. Now, Kyrie every thinking about today
Speaker 1: and say listen, I'm gonna do its best for me.
Speaker 1: He did not say anything I've ever asked me on
Speaker 1: July first, at the previously saying he wants to resign
Speaker 1: with Boston. He ain't resigning with Boston. And you know
Speaker 1: a lot of people have talked about maybe him going
Speaker 1: back to UH to l A. Imagine all along like
Speaker 1: this was kind of something that they knew, like it
Speaker 1: was not we'll meet up again in l A one day,
Speaker 1: Like don't worry about it, man, I remember, like unlaid
Speaker 1: a lot of these guys. Kyrie is ah, I mean,
Speaker 1: you know it's Australian born, but New Jersey he's a
Speaker 1: he's a little kid. A buddy of mine used to
Speaker 1: play against him in au growing up. Very cool, very cool.
Speaker 1: Kevin Durant has always been an East Coast guy before
Speaker 1: Golden State. Honestly, Washington Kembas from the Bronx, So, like
Speaker 1: you know, I mean, I would be very surprised if
Speaker 1: Kemba in a lonesty, If Kemba or Kyrie doesn't end
Speaker 1: up in New York, there's very surprised. There's also a
Speaker 1: lot of risk in this trade regarding the Doubts match. Remember,
Speaker 1: I mean they're taking on a seven foot three player
Speaker 1: returning from a c L injury that has never happened before.
Speaker 1: So there's a lot of risks there. And you know,
Speaker 1: history is playing against porsing this here because seven foot
Speaker 1: three guys have not fared well in the NBA in
Speaker 1: terms of being able to stay healthy. That's what a lot,
Speaker 1: A lot that I've read says that behind closed doors,
Speaker 1: the Knicks are very worried about his long term health.
Speaker 1: And you've kind of seen that the first three or
Speaker 1: four years he's he's constantly in and out of the
Speaker 1: mental health because he he hated the Knicks. Nicks hated
Speaker 1: him and that and that was kind of the end
Speaker 1: of that. I don't blame Poring, by the way, all
Speaker 1: of course, because they created this culture, this dysfunction. I
Speaker 1: mean it started with Isaiah Thomas and Phil Jackson, and
Speaker 1: you know, James Dolan is obviously the ringleader of all this.
Speaker 1: Like they've created dysfunction, they've welcomed it. They always want
Speaker 1: to be in the papers, they always want people talking
Speaker 1: about the Knicks, and at some point there's a price
Speaker 1: to pay for that, and yesterday they paid that price
Speaker 1: when they traded away Christops Porzing is because he didn't
Speaker 1: want to be part of the organization. And there's a
Speaker 1: lot that goes on find closed doors here, like did
Speaker 1: they set up this meeting, but did they have trade
Speaker 1: already set up in place before? And like that came
Speaker 1: out afterwards Frankie that they met with Christmas. There's always
Speaker 1: a lot of politics, and they met christas using his
Speaker 1: last week I think, and basically five minutes later didn't
Speaker 1: realize that they're trying to make him look like the
Speaker 1: bad guys. Of course they are, of course they are,
Speaker 1: don't That's what they do. Um. I will say this,
Speaker 1: coming in the year, I was pretty high on Dennis
Speaker 1: Smith Jr. Like I drafted him in fantasy. I wanted
Speaker 1: him in our team in fantasy. Didn't what we didn't
Speaker 1: wind him getting him? But I was in on Dennis
Speaker 1: Smith Jr. Are we gonna, let you know, a couple
Speaker 1: of bad months, say we Dennismith Junior sucks? Now, this
Speaker 1: is what twenty years old like. That's not fair. I
Speaker 1: get what you're saying, but a lot of this is
Speaker 1: a guy when you wanted on the Knicks last year,
Speaker 1: you want him to draft to him. I didn't hate
Speaker 1: the Frank pick at the time. It doesn't look very
Speaker 1: good right now you want didn't you want ds J Moore?
Speaker 1: I think it was already Like I wasn't really sold
Speaker 1: on either. And for people out there who were saying,
Speaker 1: like we should have taken Donovan Mitchell, like that was
Speaker 1: never gonna like the Jazz just look, you fell into
Speaker 1: their lap, so credits of the Jazz, But that was
Speaker 1: never gonna happen. Um. I do think people are maybe
Speaker 1: writing him off a little bit too early, correct, but
Speaker 1: the concerns with his games, like doesn't play defense, Yes,
Speaker 1: he has athleticism, Uh, the jump shot is a little
Speaker 1: spotty here and they're like, it kind of fits the
Speaker 1: mold of an NBA player, But is he ever going
Speaker 1: to be an All Star? I don't know, Probably not.
Speaker 1: I'd probably take the under on All Star appearances with
Speaker 1: Dennis Smith Jr. If I'm just being honest. A lot
Speaker 1: of people I watch a lot of basketball, but there
Speaker 1: are people who watch even more basketball than me and
Speaker 1: study the game, and I would value their opinion more.
Speaker 1: Who don't like the prospects of Dennis Sman Jr. Being
Speaker 1: a long term great NBA player. It's fair, an, It's annoying,
Speaker 1: but it's fair. Jimmy thought, Yeah, yeah, he's basketball. Who
Speaker 1: are the Knicks had to ask? Not worries, guys, you're
Speaker 1: doing fun, jim Can you ever remember it doesn't even
Speaker 1: have to be just bas more related a team trading
Speaker 1: away their best player, just just as a salary dump
Speaker 1: like I couldn't and I'm sorry, I think it makes
Speaker 1: all the sense. It makes all the sense in the
Speaker 1: world for a lot of different reasons. First of all,
Speaker 1: clear cap space, which is what they needed. They get
Speaker 1: two future First, one, like you guys have already been
Speaker 1: talking about, is unprotected, could be gold. Um, you know
Speaker 1: they're they're tanking right now the season to try and
Speaker 1: get that number one pick. You know, they're doing all
Speaker 1: those things to get there. They they are in fact rebuilding.
Speaker 1: So at that point, yes, look, the guy doesn't want
Speaker 1: to be here, You don't want him here, you have
Speaker 1: long term concerns about his health. If all of that
Speaker 1: stuff is indeed true, then absolutely it's get him out
Speaker 1: of the door. Let's build for the future. And that's
Speaker 1: what they're doing. It's not like he's winning them games now. No,
Speaker 1: of course, of course not. And it is a little
Speaker 1: bit different because their best player has been out all
Speaker 1: year a c L and the best hats them. So
Speaker 1: it's like when you've seen some of these other trades
Speaker 1: of superstars around the NBA, And I M not saying
Speaker 1: the superstar like Chris Paul Livil superstar, when you're saying, like,
Speaker 1: trade these trades, where do they get back? Right? Like
Speaker 1: a lot of the times you do get back future
Speaker 1: picks and cap space. That's what the Thekees. That's so
Speaker 1: the Knicks ultimately did. Now, Dennis Smith Jr. You know,
Speaker 1: probably you're right, probably won't be an All Star, but
Speaker 1: he's the maverage were not. You're not getting but wait, wait, wait, wait, wait,
Speaker 1: let's back off of that for a second, because you know,
Speaker 1: right he may not never be an All Star. But
Speaker 1: if this trick moved, you know, if this trade works
Speaker 1: the way they wanted to, and you know you were
Speaker 1: talking about this earlier, Frank, if it gets them to
Speaker 1: bring in some big names into the team, maybe the
Speaker 1: kid doesn't have to be a superstar to be a
Speaker 1: good player in this league. What if he's a good
Speaker 1: compliment to the big names that you already bring in,
Speaker 1: and they in fact bring him along and he just
Speaker 1: gets a little better. You know, I don't see the
Speaker 1: downside to having him here, especially at his age, you know,
Speaker 1: I mean that Jim said that kind of just popped
Speaker 1: into my mind. Is what if he turns into the
Speaker 1: next Lou Williams. Is out of the realm of possibility, Greg,
Speaker 1: why like a solid six man option off the bench.
Speaker 1: He's twenty years old, So again, give him the benefit
Speaker 1: of the doubt. Let him prove it at the NFL,
Speaker 1: at the NBA level. Um, give him some minutes, give
Speaker 1: him some opportunity and see what he could do. And
Speaker 1: I think you've got to do the same thing with
Speaker 1: Frankiela keen as well. Let these guys play now second
Speaker 1: half of the season and to see, you know, let
Speaker 1: them develop and see what they could turn into. I
Speaker 1: think at the least they could be rotation level NBA players.
Speaker 1: Any maybe they turn into even more. And if you
Speaker 1: really think about it, they want to sign a guy
Speaker 1: like Kyrie Irving or Kemba Walker anyway, and Smith Jr.
Speaker 1: Isn't gonna be the starter. So really all you need
Speaker 1: to be as a competent bench player. Sham has just
Speaker 1: tweeted Anthony Davis is focused on the Lakers as his
Speaker 1: top preferred destination, but the Knicks are also preferred landing
Speaker 1: spot and try to make the post for New Orleans
Speaker 1: to go trade with the Knicks. So A d you
Speaker 1: can play in New York. We'll take that. We'll that
Speaker 1: super Bowl talk the rest of the way after this,

Speaker 1: Fantasy Sports Radio Network, Greg Suspan, Franky Stample, Jim Day
Speaker 1: hanging out with us today on a Friday. Jim, I
Speaker 1: I read earlier you have announcement to make on a
Speaker 1: Frenzy today. Yeah. I got something I gotta say, but
Speaker 1: I'll just save that till later. Sorry, guys, That's why
Speaker 1: I said, I you have announced with Ton on the
Speaker 1: Frenzy today. So what I'm saying, yes, yes, yeah, I
Speaker 1: gotta get it out of get it off my chest.
Speaker 1: All right. We'll be honest with you, a lot of
Speaker 1: people expect me to know things around here. I don't.
Speaker 1: I do not know what Jim's announcement is. I think
Speaker 1: it has to do with he's got a new drum
Speaker 1: set er. Some could be, could be you never know.
Speaker 1: By the way we have Astor doing once again, are
Speaker 1: doing a super Bowl contest here and you can participate
Speaker 1: over on fandals we do all year long. Five bucks.
Speaker 1: Let us know. Tweet at us if you want to play.
Speaker 1: A lot of you guys have already signed up or
Speaker 1: not technically engine made a line up yet if you
Speaker 1: played our last contest, but it's on Fandel right now. Um,
Speaker 1: if you want to get in, just tweet at Frank
Speaker 1: or myself and we will get you in there. Obviously,
Speaker 1: single game format is only one game, an m VP
Speaker 1: at one point five times the points. Everything else is
Speaker 1: just a flex. So basically, if you've been in the
Speaker 1: contest throughout the playoffs, you're already in it. You just
Speaker 1: have to set your line up. So shout out to
Speaker 1: our guy. I believe his name is Andre. Can you
Speaker 1: catch up? I think he's won it twice in the playoffs.
Speaker 1: Are in articulous, so shout out to him. He's been
Speaker 1: doing a great job. But for anyone else who's out
Speaker 1: there who wants to join, I mean there might be
Speaker 1: people By Sunday who don't set their line up. So
Speaker 1: if you want to invite um and their spots available,
Speaker 1: I'll be sure to get you in. But again, if
Speaker 1: you're inside the contest, just make sure to set your
Speaker 1: line up before Sunday. Greg's right, there's one m VP
Speaker 1: slot where you get one point five times the fantasy production,
Speaker 1: and then there are four other spots spots that you
Speaker 1: need to fill, so it's just five flexes. If you
Speaker 1: haven't played the single game format before, you can use kickers.
Speaker 1: You can use any wide receivers, running backs. You can
Speaker 1: use both quarterbacks if you want to, which of course
Speaker 1: makes things a little bit harder because they are both
Speaker 1: the two highest salaried players. You have sixty grand to spend,
Speaker 1: and obviously all the prices are much higher in the
Speaker 1: single game format. Frankie mentioned Brady and gothel fifteen. I
Speaker 1: don't every buddy Jim SNAs he kind of always recommends
Speaker 1: using a kicker. They always yeah, So something I would, uh,
Speaker 1: I would recommend before setting a single game lineup is
Speaker 1: our own. Drew drink Meyer of Daily Rodo just joined
Speaker 1: the DFS EDGE Daily Fantasy Edge podcast, very popular. Adam
Speaker 1: of a Tan left Adam Levitan and they kind of
Speaker 1: they went in depth on Showdown slate strategy and who
Speaker 1: to use as your m v P, and a lot
Speaker 1: of talk about correlation. And again I think we'll do
Speaker 1: that again today when we were talking about like our
Speaker 1: best bets some prop bets that I made yesterday. Is
Speaker 1: trying to correlate your prop bets with how you think
Speaker 1: the game flow is gonna go. The same thing goes
Speaker 1: with this single game Showdown, and maybe you know, if
Speaker 1: you play in a bigger field contest, you'll make multiple
Speaker 1: line ups with the same game flow. Like there can
Speaker 1: be there could be like a game flow you think
Speaker 1: is gonna happen, but it could play out two different
Speaker 1: ways in terms of, all right, the rams are playing
Speaker 1: catch up. But I'll make one lineup where I think
Speaker 1: Brandon Cooks is gonna get a lot of the production.
Speaker 1: I'll make another lineup where I have Jared Goff and
Speaker 1: Robert Woods. You know, so, like, know what you think
Speaker 1: the game flow is going to be. And then I
Speaker 1: would say, kind of make your single game lineups base
Speaker 1: off that game flow. Does that hold true, Jim, even
Speaker 1: in a even in a I guess um, in a
Speaker 1: single game format, I hear Frank saying, but when it's
Speaker 1: a smaller const like what we're doing twenty people, right you,
Speaker 1: I know, a lot of times a fane you trot
Speaker 1: or in DFS rather you kind of try to balance
Speaker 1: it out what you're doing. It's like, all right, let me,
Speaker 1: I'm getting like Brady and Edelman. Maybe I should get
Speaker 1: Todd Gurley. So it's like kind of even out in
Speaker 1: a smaller context, it makes sense to do it that
Speaker 1: way or kind of go Frank was saying, go all
Speaker 1: in on what you believe the game flow is and
Speaker 1: not necessarily trying to even it out just in case. No,
Speaker 1: I don't like the going with the game flow thought
Speaker 1: process because if your game flow thought processes off right
Speaker 1: from the get go, you're done. Um. You know, if
Speaker 1: you expect the Rams to get out to a lead
Speaker 1: and you're expecting Brady and the team to come back
Speaker 1: and have to throw a lot, you know, if they
Speaker 1: come out of the gate running the ball right down
Speaker 1: to ramstroats, you're off your game already. So not a
Speaker 1: big fan of that. I mean, I get the idea,
Speaker 1: but I also think there's gonna be a lot of
Speaker 1: people running their teams that way. For me, I like
Speaker 1: to just pick the random players that I think are
Speaker 1: likely to have good games that I could fit into
Speaker 1: my lineup. Um, and you know I'm gonna take shots
Speaker 1: on guys in my captain role that you know I'm
Speaker 1: I'm thinking most people won't be on, at least not
Speaker 1: as heavily owned as others, because let's face it, at
Speaker 1: this point, you're trying to pick the players that nobody
Speaker 1: else is really on, and there's not enough players to
Speaker 1: really get that far out, So you gotta you gotta
Speaker 1: take some chances that you know, I get the fact
Speaker 1: that you know they always want to have a kicker
Speaker 1: in there, but you're kind of limited with zirline being,
Speaker 1: you know, not in practice all week. What if he
Speaker 1: goes out there, tries to make the first kick and
Speaker 1: he's on, um, and then you're screwed. I mean, if
Speaker 1: you're gonna go with kickers, I think you have to
Speaker 1: go with Kaskowski in this one. It's just hard to
Speaker 1: take that chance on their line. Um, you know without
Speaker 1: you No, I don't know that One's bothered me a
Speaker 1: little bit. I'm a little worried about zir line, do
Speaker 1: you And I think it's fair it's kind of crazy,
Speaker 1: but you you realize, like, were you you made a
Speaker 1: bet on zir line? Maybe the m v P on
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl? Right, it's a five dollar wage. I
Speaker 1: got this thousand dollars. It was five dollars, risk five
Speaker 1: dollars to win one two hundred and fifty. So I'll
Speaker 1: risk five dollars for that. And it was one of
Speaker 1: those things where the Vandal Sports book gave me like
Speaker 1: ten free dollars to play with. So I'm playing with
Speaker 1: house money. Might as well use it on something crazy.
Speaker 1: And you are a buddy in our chat. I believe
Speaker 1: it was Ron C earlier in the week, So you
Speaker 1: put thirty dollars. I'm probably not doing that. I like,
Speaker 1: I like where your head's at, Like, like, I'll throw
Speaker 1: five ten dollars on this. That's on the off chance.
Speaker 1: Again it's kicker has never been the m v P
Speaker 1: of the game. But I think we're missing out though,
Speaker 1: you know, we should be taking side bets on all
Speaker 1: these all these crazy props. Um, you know what a
Speaker 1: ron you want to send me thirty bucks, I'll take
Speaker 1: that bet on their line. Yeah, I got a bad point, Jim.
Speaker 1: I Also it's it's funny when it goes to your
Speaker 1: props and get back to the def has one sec.
Speaker 1: But I was looking at some props this morning, Frank,
Speaker 1: and you're right, man, you were right. Like every you
Speaker 1: you see, every one of these props, you always want
Speaker 1: to take the over like that is your initial instinct
Speaker 1: is to always take the over because no one wants
Speaker 1: to root for the under of everything, and that's where
Speaker 1: the money is. Man, Your thousandersn't right with that? Yeah,
Speaker 1: People who are a lot smarter than me, things that
Speaker 1: I've things that I've listened to regarding like former odds
Speaker 1: makers and stuff, they say, you know, most of the
Speaker 1: money is made and this is where like the sharp
Speaker 1: guys come in where they just hammer under the hammer
Speaker 1: a bunch of nose on these props, especially during the
Speaker 1: Super Bowl, because you get props available to you that
Speaker 1: aren't normally available because on any given week you're not
Speaker 1: getting a James Devlin plot, no doubt. That's why, Like
Speaker 1: I'm jumping in on a James Devlin prop in the
Speaker 1: Super Bowl because his over under arn yards is four
Speaker 1: and a half. How often is James four and a
Speaker 1: half totally yards? Now? It could be over in one play.
Speaker 1: I realized that, But how likely is it that James
Speaker 1: Devlin even gets the ball outside of like a third
Speaker 1: and one, a fourth and one a four, like you know,
Speaker 1: a goal line conversion five yards on that? A lot
Speaker 1: of a lot of money is Frank, I would be
Speaker 1: totally with you if it wasn't Bill Pellichick, because you know,
Speaker 1: while everybody else is thinking the same thing, you are
Speaker 1: Bills thinking something different. How many times you think James
Speaker 1: Devlan has gone over four and a half yards this season, Frank,
Speaker 1: I was just about to have it up, Uh, well,
Speaker 1: including the playoffs four times. Unfortunately it was six times,
Speaker 1: six times. Six times he's gone over four and a
Speaker 1: half yards including the playoffs, six out of eighteen weeks.
Speaker 1: Six weeks, He's go on over. I'll take those odds
Speaker 1: every time. There you go. So I'm getting twelve out
Speaker 1: of eighteen times he's gone under four and a half
Speaker 1: yards and I got that, and I believe like minus
Speaker 1: one thirties, So I think the odds are in my favor. Perfect.
Speaker 1: Good thanks, but no, seriously, just getting back to the
Speaker 1: props as well. There's just there's more stuff available this
Speaker 1: week than like normally you'll see, um, the biggest name receivers,
Speaker 1: biggest name rushers, like the offer props for that, especially
Speaker 1: on like single games like Thursday night games, Sunday night,
Speaker 1: Monday night games. You'll get that. But we're getting like
Speaker 1: any prop imaginable you could think of when it comes
Speaker 1: to kickers, when it comes to Jared Goff rushing yards,
Speaker 1: Tom Brady, when it comes to forget, that's a lot. Like, dude,
Speaker 1: there's so much easy money to be made this week
Speaker 1: to Tony almost saying Hotlanta, like just take the hot
Speaker 1: you take no on everything this week. It's getting excited.
Speaker 1: Can you take the note and the under on everything?
Speaker 1: I guarantee you would be more profitable than not this weekend?
Speaker 1: How about how about Tom tom Brady's rushing yards at
Speaker 1: one and a half. But Frank made a good point, man,
Speaker 1: Frank made the point of all points that if he
Speaker 1: does rush for that one yard right, or rushes for
Speaker 1: does it twice and fourth and one, you're at two.
Speaker 1: When he kneels down at the end of the game,
Speaker 1: you're gonna lose the yard. And that's how you're gonna
Speaker 1: lose this bet. Honestly, I'd probably take the under put right.
Speaker 1: He was great it was a great call. I like,
Speaker 1: I like Jared Goff under it's like eight and a
Speaker 1: half rushing yards. Take the under there, Like, how has
Speaker 1: he done that this year? Like? Look, I took why
Speaker 1: did you reveal all your problem girl's longest rush under
Speaker 1: seventeen and a half yards? Just because you don't know
Speaker 1: how healthy is he hasn't been breaking off long runs recently.
Speaker 1: I think they are going to try and get him
Speaker 1: the ball a little bit more here it's a do
Speaker 1: or die game. But again, how healthy is he? And
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure the Patriots are going to zwn in
Speaker 1: on trying to stop the run. I think they want
Speaker 1: Jared Goff to try and beat it. So I take
Speaker 1: the longest rush under seventeen and a half yards. I
Speaker 1: took Tom Brady over twenty five and a half, I
Speaker 1: revealed earlier on the week. I know I'm talking a
Speaker 1: lot about unders, but this just seems too easy here.
Speaker 1: I mean the first two games, where their game plan
Speaker 1: was more so to run the football. He has had
Speaker 1: thirty and thirty four completions respectively in the first two games.
Speaker 1: And I looked at the past Super Bowls and he's
Speaker 1: gone over twenty five and a half um pretty regularly
Speaker 1: in the Super Bowl. So I like that New England
Speaker 1: and l A rams under twenty seven and a half
Speaker 1: first half points. I mentioned coming into this Super Bowl.
Speaker 1: The past eight Super Bowls that the Patriots have been
Speaker 1: in the first quarter, they've combined for three three points. So, um, yeah,
Speaker 1: there could be some point scored in the in the
Speaker 1: second quarter for sure, but I'm still taking the under
Speaker 1: twenty seven and a half in the first half. But
Speaker 1: but to that point, Trackie and you mentioned about you know,
Speaker 1: Patriots last year scoring three points. All the other Super
Speaker 1: Bowls they've had, they've scored zero in the first half
Speaker 1: in the first quarter. Man, I want to bet a
Speaker 1: touchdown in the first core for the paths so bad
Speaker 1: you're probably getting good odds in it right now, right
Speaker 1: when numbers are you looking at? Uh, that's what I
Speaker 1: haven't really got to that one yet. I've been doing
Speaker 1: a bunch of other stuff, but that's probably what I'm
Speaker 1: gonna be spending my entire day tomorrow. I was looking
Speaker 1: at those But if they give me one that's a
Speaker 1: decent number for that, I'm definitely gonna take it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it just comes down to value too, Like if you
Speaker 1: see a number that seems off to you, like Jim saying,
Speaker 1: and you're if you're getting plus money on the path
Speaker 1: of the Patriots and score touchdown in the first quarter,
Speaker 1: then again it says a lot of these problems again
Speaker 1: are also value based, right look at the look at
Speaker 1: how much juice you're laying. If there's something to you
Speaker 1: that seems like it should be more even or even
Speaker 1: like favored in your opinion, and you're getting that plus money.
Speaker 1: I remember yesterday the really as longest rush under seventeen
Speaker 1: and a half. I got that at plus money, Greg,
Speaker 1: And that's something that I was talking about the other day.
Speaker 1: He loved it that I was. I was pretty much
Speaker 1: in on on that. And then I think it was
Speaker 1: the over two and a half players with past attempts,
Speaker 1: something that I've talked about, which has I like, that's
Speaker 1: hitting me in the past five Super Bowls. Uh. And
Speaker 1: you know we've seen trick play from the Patriot in
Speaker 1: the past, you know, getting Ms Julian Edelman involved throwing
Speaker 1: the ball the Rams punter um. You know, I could
Speaker 1: just see somebody else throwing the ball here in this game.
Speaker 1: Over two and a half players with past attempts. I
Speaker 1: got that at plus money as well, and it's something
Speaker 1: that I feel pretty good about. And then the final
Speaker 1: one that we've referenced is James Devlin under four and
Speaker 1: a half total yards. Those are the five props that
Speaker 1: I hit on yesterday when I was in Jersey. Fair enough,
Speaker 1: there you go. Did you have a beer when you're
Speaker 1: in Jersey? I did not? Did you have you buy
Speaker 1: a water? I ordered a sprite which was two dollars,
Speaker 1: and I gave the bartend a three dollars sip and
Speaker 1: I just asked if I could sit here and put
Speaker 1: my bets in and had no problems with it. Great,
Speaker 1: that's great. I'm glad. I'm glad it worked out for you.
Speaker 1: I knew all along it was going to great, but
Speaker 1: thanks for being concerned. Hey man, I just want to
Speaker 1: make sure you can always tell a person who's worked
Speaker 1: as at a bar, as a bartender or server, you
Speaker 1: know what kind of tip they leave. Well, three dollars
Speaker 1: on a two dollars sprite is a very generous tip,
Speaker 1: it is, but it's comes from somebody who's been on
Speaker 1: the other side and no knows what you know, what
Speaker 1: it's like to be on the other side, I've seen
Speaker 1: Greg not tipped when getting a beer. I'm with you, Frank,
Speaker 1: I'm a big tipper. I like to tip they usual. Greg.
Speaker 1: This is a trick, and I know because I was
Speaker 1: a bartender. You instead of giving the one dollar per
Speaker 1: beer that you're gonna do over the course of drinking
Speaker 1: five beers at night, right, you give the five dollars
Speaker 1: first and foremost. Then that bartender will always be looking
Speaker 1: your way if you need a beer. And not only that.
Speaker 1: You know when it comes to like buy backs, if
Speaker 1: they are a bar that you know, hey, you buy
Speaker 1: three beers, you get your fourth one free. Whatever, They're
Speaker 1: gonna keep you in mind because you give them a
Speaker 1: five dollar Sure, I know, I hear that. I understand that,
Speaker 1: and I understand it works. But it's not a very
Speaker 1: crowding bar, and I'm not worried. It's there's no one
Speaker 1: there and I'm just just just us. I probably just
Speaker 1: hit a dollar at a time I wanted to. Well,
Speaker 1: I hear on that. I'm absolutely I'm always at least
Speaker 1: giving a dollar. Chip. You give me a dollar per drink, right,
Speaker 1: You're not giving a dollar, are you? Or a dollar
Speaker 1: per order? No per drink, so if I'm buying me
Speaker 1: and you a beer, I'm given two dollars. That's that's
Speaker 1: the lowest you could go. I would say, bar etiquette,
Speaker 1: you got to give at least a dollar per drink.
Speaker 1: That's what I was appreciate talk. Yeah, I was brought
Speaker 1: up like that as Well's it's nice to know you
Speaker 1: learn something new every day. Greg happy to help. I
Speaker 1: feel you they're going a terrible tipper. I didn't say it.
Speaker 1: I'm actually in the back of your mind. You must
Speaker 1: be self conscious about it, honestly, very good tipper normally. Yeah, no, yeah,
Speaker 1: I know that you're a big you know, very generated
Speaker 1: for the service that you get. So if you get
Speaker 1: good service, you probably tipped well. And you know what,
Speaker 1: I just the problem is, even when I get bad services,
Speaker 1: I like feel bad, Like this guy isn't that bad.
Speaker 1: He works on tips, probably don't make a lot of money,
Speaker 1: like do it at this job. He relies on it,
Speaker 1: So I ultimately feel bad. And Judy is like the
Speaker 1: ruthless one. What's that famous scene. It's in a movie
Speaker 1: where like they argue about their inside of a diner
Speaker 1: and they're arguing whether or not you should tip well
Speaker 1: and He's like, well, they get paid to be you
Speaker 1: know it or a waitress, so why am I going
Speaker 1: to tip them for doing their jobs. It's a famous scene.
Speaker 1: I don't know what sing you're talking about, but I
Speaker 1: also understand that mindset, like that it kind of used
Speaker 1: their job to serve. Yeah, but they also get paid
Speaker 1: super cheap because they work off tips. I agree, Listen,
Speaker 1: they don't even make minimum weight. I hear you, man,
Speaker 1: and I agree that. There's a lot of stuff that
Speaker 1: bothers me. It's like I asked for something and then
Speaker 1: I just totally forgets that's not acceptable, like writing down
Speaker 1: if I if I ordered her if I don't mean.
Speaker 1: I have a terrible memory. So I used to ask people.
Speaker 1: I used to like tell their order back to them
Speaker 1: when I would work at the barty, Like they're like, oh,
Speaker 1: you know they're ordering for a group of this this
Speaker 1: is I'll be like, all right, so just so I'm
Speaker 1: clear you want this? Yeah, I might even come back
Speaker 1: then be like is what you wanted? Right? So I
Speaker 1: make sure I get it right. So last night, for instance,
Speaker 1: from It's from Reservoir Dogs by the very famous. So
Speaker 1: last night I went to dinner, I went out for
Speaker 1: dinner and I ordered some pasta and I ordered a
Speaker 1: ginger le What said pasta? Interesting mix? I was in
Speaker 1: the movie for Soda when No Draw, No Jan Drew.
Speaker 1: I'm halfway through my pasta, and I'm like, are you
Speaker 1: a gin droll? It wasn't like, oh, that's a bad job.
Speaker 1: It wasn't like, oh, I'm so sorry. I was like, oh, yeah,
Speaker 1: no problem. Are you kidding me? Like you did order
Speaker 1: it with your meal? I ordered it right at the beginning. Greg.
Speaker 1: While we're on the discussion of people who like not
Speaker 1: get paid a lot when they're like either a bartender
Speaker 1: or a waiter or a waitress or an analyst, let's
Speaker 1: save that for a different day, Jim. But I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: did that come out up loud? I was just thinking, Man,
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Greg. I worked. I worked based off of
Speaker 1: a shift pay, and I think a lot of I
Speaker 1: worked in like a like an old old style Irish bar,
Speaker 1: dive bar or whatever. I would work based on a
Speaker 1: shift pay, and everything anything I made on tips on
Speaker 1: top of that was what I was able to take home.
Speaker 1: What do you think my shift pay was? And I
Speaker 1: would work anywhere from six pm two if it was
Speaker 1: a busy night four am. If it's a slow night,
Speaker 1: I'll close up at one am. Okay, So I work
Speaker 1: anywhere from like a seven to ten hour shift shop.
Speaker 1: I would say ten bucks an hour my shift paid.
Speaker 1: My shift pay was forty dollars flat and everything I
Speaker 1: made on top of that was sip. Just to put
Speaker 1: that in perspectively, discuss that was about like five years ago,
Speaker 1: and it would still have nights where like it was
Speaker 1: actually pretty good, like take like a hundred and fifty night,
Speaker 1: so it's not bad like one night at work. But
Speaker 1: you also need good tippers to be able to make
Speaker 1: I read a story on the Athletic the strippers are
Speaker 1: making ten tho dollars a night, So what are you
Speaker 1: doing here? Greg? No idea. When we come back, we'll
Speaker 1: go over the price to give you the DVS picks

Speaker 1: Jim Day Drum loves is. Kevin Mathan loves it by Day.
Speaker 1: I do do like Kenny Bloggins. So let's Kenny Logans
Speaker 1: and Kevin making him big and dance to this. Yeah
Speaker 1: that Kevin Magan. The one before that, Kenny Loggins. Henny
Speaker 1: Loggins just reminded me of the Jets. Who at you, guys?
Speaker 1: Logans utter Mine is better than your. The NBA has
Speaker 1: added two future Hall of Famers, Durko Bisky and Dane
Speaker 1: Weight as special roster additions to the All Star Game.
Speaker 1: We're gonna get one of those spots per year. Now
Speaker 1: moving forward? Is that thing last year two? I think
Speaker 1: Kobe Bryant was like the last one who was voted
Speaker 1: in who shouldn't have been, but just because it was
Speaker 1: like it's farewell to what kind of thing like I
Speaker 1: don't do. You're probably who cares. Whatever. It's like, it's
Speaker 1: it's the Alstar game. It's an exhibition game. All right, guys,
Speaker 1: let's get in dfs um for this weekend. That's to exploit.
Speaker 1: I think that's what we're like, really got to get
Speaker 1: into it. Okay, um magic to exploit. Let's let's let's
Speaker 1: let's get right into it. The week part of the
Speaker 1: Patriots defense, Jim is what oh huh wow. The way
Speaker 1: they're playing right now, there's not many Um. I'd say,
Speaker 1: if you really want to push it, you know, defensive
Speaker 1: back can be can be taken advantage of, but you
Speaker 1: gotta have time to do that. They're gonna really need
Speaker 1: to keep that that rush off of golf. Okay, so
Speaker 1: keeping the rush off of golf, that's the outlets of
Speaker 1: line has been lauded and they both have been We
Speaker 1: talk offensive lines in this game have been great. We
Speaker 1: talked once in the playoffs Tom Brady zero. We talked
Speaker 1: to Marshall Falk about this and he basically says the
Speaker 1: Patriots offensive lines bums. And now that they start SCARNECKI
Speaker 1: either offensive line coach is just unbelievable at what he does.
Speaker 1: The question becomes sustained success there absolutely is he going
Speaker 1: to be able to scheme well enough to stop Aaron
Speaker 1: Donald and Domalkin, Sue and the rest of the defensive
Speaker 1: line in Los Angeles from getting to Tom Brady? That's
Speaker 1: the question. Now. The offensive the Patriots have used Frank
Speaker 1: throughout the playoffs is ride Sony Michelle early on and
Speaker 1: make things easier for Tom Brady? Is that the way
Speaker 1: you expected to go? Again? I think it's a little
Speaker 1: bit tougher this week, tough sledding for Sony Michelle and
Speaker 1: sorry Greg and the new Patriots rushing attack. If you
Speaker 1: look at what the Rams defense has been able to do,
Speaker 1: and I've talked about this, I asked Marshall about it
Speaker 1: a little bit yesterday. If you're Wade Phillips, what are
Speaker 1: you trying to take away in this game? Because what
Speaker 1: he's been able to take away the first two playoff
Speaker 1: games that they've played in is against Ezekiel Elliot. I
Speaker 1: believe he ran for forty yards or somewhere around there.
Speaker 1: So they were able to limit him. They were able
Speaker 1: to limit one of the better offensive lines in football,
Speaker 1: one of the better running backs. Very next week, they
Speaker 1: were able to limit mark Ingram and Alvin Kamara. From
Speaker 1: a rushing perspective, Avan Kamara still caught a lot of balls.
Speaker 1: We talked about that this week as well. There was
Speaker 1: one drive where basically they threw it's him every time.
Speaker 1: I think he had like three or four catches for
Speaker 1: fifty yards on one drive. So that might be I
Speaker 1: guarantee you that's gonna be something that stands out on
Speaker 1: film for Josh McDaniels and the New England Patriots tending
Speaker 1: into this game. So if you're looking at matchup, sweet sploit,
Speaker 1: and I'll tell you right now he I already have
Speaker 1: him inside my lineup. I'm using James White because I
Speaker 1: think he might be the one, and we've seen it
Speaker 1: in the Super Bowl. And I know, you know when
Speaker 1: we were talking about James White props earlier on in
Speaker 1: the week, it hasn't been every like it hasn't been
Speaker 1: consistent throughout his postseason career that he dominates a little
Speaker 1: bit different. Remember that game against the Falcons where he
Speaker 1: should have been the Super Bowl V get three total
Speaker 1: touchdowns in that game. I think James White is the
Speaker 1: more effective from a fantasy perspective running back in this game.
Speaker 1: Then Tony Michelle or even Rex Burkhead just because he
Speaker 1: scored two touchdowns last week, I think it's worth mentioning.
Speaker 1: I think once again, the Rams are going to try
Speaker 1: and stop the run, which is crazy because it's basically
Speaker 1: you're inviting Tom Brady to beat you. But if you
Speaker 1: play it right and you are sending safety help, you're
Speaker 1: knocking Julie Edelman off his routes a little bit, and
Speaker 1: you're telling Tom Brady to beat you with his outside weapons.
Speaker 1: I think that's the way that the Rams defense should
Speaker 1: be attacking this game. Doesn't matter, Jim, do you keep
Speaker 1: to leave? Of course a former New England Patriot? Will
Speaker 1: that help him A don't. I'll help him in the coverage?
Speaker 1: Will that help their knowledge at all? Now? He's been
Speaker 1: done too long and Belichick is gonna definitely change things
Speaker 1: up just for that reason, know who he's going against.
Speaker 1: So yeah, they they've definitely got new wrinkles involved. And
Speaker 1: you know my problem with with counting on James White
Speaker 1: this week, especially in DFS, is everybody else will be
Speaker 1: and that's where you know, you have to try and
Speaker 1: figure out some way to separate yourself. And I just
Speaker 1: figured that James White is probably gonna be when one
Speaker 1: of the bigger chalk plays of the week, just because
Speaker 1: everything's Frank's talking about. You know, they should probably pass
Speaker 1: to him a lot, get a lot of work in
Speaker 1: the passing game. But again, and this is where I
Speaker 1: go crazy personally as an analyst, is Bill Belichick because
Speaker 1: I try to get into his head and then I
Speaker 1: get lost in my own head and I'm trying to
Speaker 1: figure out this side and that side, and meanwhile he's
Speaker 1: doing the exact opposite, and it just drives me nuts.
Speaker 1: But I could easily see them using James White is
Speaker 1: a decoy in this because the defense is going to
Speaker 1: be looking for the same exact thing. Right. We have
Speaker 1: Sawn angled downstairs on the ones and twos, and I
Speaker 1: believe a famous saying of his father, father the King,
Speaker 1: it's over analysis leads to paralysis. It does. It kills
Speaker 1: me sometimes the phrase Jim for but Jim in that
Speaker 1: same regard that you're talking about with James White. I
Speaker 1: think people are gonna look at what Sony Michelle has
Speaker 1: done the first two games of this playoff, and I
Speaker 1: think he'll be quite highly owned as well. Don't you
Speaker 1: like They're gonna look at the first two games, and
Speaker 1: they're gonna say, look at what look at the way
Speaker 1: they've been using Sony Michelle. I think that they're gonna
Speaker 1: use Sony Michelle this way again in the Super Bowl.
Speaker 1: Do you think a lot of people are gonna have
Speaker 1: that logic as well? I don't not to interrupt you,
Speaker 1: Jim before your answer. I don't, man, I think more
Speaker 1: people just look at the Patriots. I think people remember
Speaker 1: what they see last though, right, isn't that like Dave
Speaker 1: talked about that a lot from a betting so he
Speaker 1: don't remember what they see last. So I've seen it
Speaker 1: now two games and no, I hear you, and I
Speaker 1: think I understand your logic were it comes to the Patriots.
Speaker 1: I think it's just a little bit different because the Patriots,
Speaker 1: the first name that you rattle up your tongue is
Speaker 1: always going to be Tom Brading no matter what. Right,
Speaker 1: when you think of the Patriots and all their history
Speaker 1: in the Super Bowl, you don't think of a back
Speaker 1: getting them all thirty times, rushing for a hundred yards
Speaker 1: and getting touched out or two. You know, you never
Speaker 1: will think of that when it comes to the pass.
Speaker 1: And I totally recognize that is at exactly how they
Speaker 1: started the game each of the last two games that
Speaker 1: they rode Sony Michelle, particularly in the first half of
Speaker 1: both games. Before when you have a little bit we
Speaker 1: both remember that. Wherever two weeks past that, and if
Speaker 1: I'm talking about these two teams and something that sticks
Speaker 1: in my mind first instinct, right for the Patriots, it's
Speaker 1: Tom Brady. For the Rams, it's Todd Gurling sitting on
Speaker 1: the sidelines or five plays. I'll remember that when it
Speaker 1: comes to the Rams or sitting on the sidelines, uh,
Speaker 1: being in the game for five plays, That's where I'm
Speaker 1: gonna remember. I'm not remembering, in all honesty, how great
Speaker 1: Sony Michelle has been. So I don't think Sony Michelle
Speaker 1: is going to be over over own. I'll think of
Speaker 1: the under owned. I think more people will realize, oh,
Speaker 1: James White, he's past catching back. I remember when he
Speaker 1: did in the Super Bowl two years ago. I know
Speaker 1: I love James White. I think that's the direction where
Speaker 1: people going. Now, Greg, does this change your mind? Michelle
Speaker 1: four thousand five on Fandel is the third highest priced
Speaker 1: player on this single game slate. So when I was
Speaker 1: looking at getting James White at two thousand dollars less
Speaker 1: when I was looking at the slate this earlier, that
Speaker 1: did change find some thousand per seven in James White?
Speaker 1: Then are you kidding me? Thousands? Like two thousand dollars less?
Speaker 1: Of course I am. Everybody's but everybody's going to but
Speaker 1: two thousand dollars less. You just talked about like find
Speaker 1: when he keeps props right, like find something you believe
Speaker 1: in and if the odds are in your favor, like
Speaker 1: go for it. That's what it is with James White.
Speaker 1: I like James White more from a DFS perspective, and
Speaker 1: he's cheaper. Why wouldn't I put him in him? Um,
Speaker 1: do you have anything on that? I mean regarding Sony Michelle,
Speaker 1: do you think he'll be higher owned? Because that's what
Speaker 1: we've seen. I'll also throw this your way just because
Speaker 1: James White is chalk. If it's a single game lineup,
Speaker 1: you do need to have to talk like you do
Speaker 1: need to have the guys that are going to produce.
Speaker 1: So if you do think James White is going to
Speaker 1: produce even though he's gonna be chalk, it comes down
Speaker 1: to like those fringe players who are going to make
Speaker 1: the difference, and maybe we'll get into some of those
Speaker 1: as well. Some of some of the low salary guys
Speaker 1: who are gonna make the difference here could also signed him.
Speaker 1: But couldn't also the difference who you choose as your
Speaker 1: as your m v P, right, Like, couldn't that be
Speaker 1: the difference? Or you're just being like, listen, let me
Speaker 1: just pick Tom Brady, picked Jarry Goffam. Worry about it
Speaker 1: the goodest. Look, I'm just kidding, Jim. No worries because
Speaker 1: um look this is you know, I keep coming back.
Speaker 1: I think James White is going to be more owned
Speaker 1: than Sony Michelle. I get what you're saying, Frank, but
Speaker 1: especially on DraftKings in the full PPR. You know, James
Speaker 1: White to me is gonna be chalking. You're right, you
Speaker 1: do have to have some chalk. You have to pick
Speaker 1: the right chalk that you want to use, because just
Speaker 1: because a player is chalk doesn't mean they're gonna end
Speaker 1: up giving you the numbers you're expecting or better. And
Speaker 1: you know, I have concerns with James White. We've seen
Speaker 1: Rex Burkhead get a little bit more involved lately. I
Speaker 1: wouldn't be surprised at all if White is the decoy
Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, Birkheads getting a lot of
Speaker 1: that work. Um, you know, and you're talking about a
Speaker 1: guy who's you know, a couple of grand cheaper than
Speaker 1: even White is. So you know, it really comes down
Speaker 1: to you. You want to pick the players you think
Speaker 1: it's gonna have a good game. I get all that,
Speaker 1: but at the same time you have to you know,
Speaker 1: and not so much. It's not so different in it
Speaker 1: twenty guide league, like the ones you guys are doing.
Speaker 1: But if you're playing in trying to play in a
Speaker 1: big tournament, I mean, you have to take shots at
Speaker 1: guys that just aren't gonna be there for a lot
Speaker 1: of people, guys like Dorset or Reynolds or somebody that
Speaker 1: just has a chance to differentiate you if they have
Speaker 1: a good game. Let's get into some of those players.
Speaker 1: Who's some of these lower salary players we think and
Speaker 1: make the difference. I'll tell you the one that I
Speaker 1: have in my lineup right now. So I haven't I
Speaker 1: haven't made my lad of yet, but the guy at
Speaker 1: first comes to mind, this is a different it's different
Speaker 1: one good good what we're talking about. It's Rex Burkhead
Speaker 1: and he's ten so he's ten thousand dollars, still really expensive,
Speaker 1: though he's only five dollars less than Robert Woods was
Speaker 1: so much more of I would say, solid role in
Speaker 1: the game plan. And I think if we're just talking
Speaker 1: about matchups that they're gonna exploit. Once again, I've talked
Speaker 1: about this corner for the Patriots, it's j C. Jackson,
Speaker 1: who teams have kind of been picking on here, who
Speaker 1: they've been calling penalties against. We know they're very strong
Speaker 1: with outside corners in terms of have Stefan Gilmore and
Speaker 1: they have Jason mccordy on the outside. Those guys are
Speaker 1: very strong. Now, Robert Woods doesn't solely play in the slot.
Speaker 1: It's you know, him and Josh Reynolds rotate, but they
Speaker 1: move these guys around. But Robert Wood still plays thirty
Speaker 1: maybe of his snaps in the slot, and I think
Speaker 1: he'll have some places where he can exploit here. So
Speaker 1: if you're telling me you're getting Robert Woods only five
Speaker 1: more than a guy like Rex Burkhead, I'm gonna lean
Speaker 1: Robert Woods. But like it's not impossible that Rex Burkehead
Speaker 1: I can't have another game like he did last week.
Speaker 1: Going back to what Jim said, look, it's Bell, it's Belichick.
Speaker 1: Who is the one that who was it? Jake says,
Speaker 1: the Bela tricks. Probably that's so gross. Um, I think so.
Speaker 1: I think like if you just look at the prices
Speaker 1: on Fanduela, there's only four guys that play at all
Speaker 1: that could be can cherry and I mean literally unless
Speaker 1: you go with one of the Rams tight ends. You
Speaker 1: one of the Rams tight ends. Have fun Tyler be
Speaker 1: six general every six, so have fun with that. But
Speaker 1: like other than that, you have grantins under ten grand.
Speaker 1: You have Philip Door said at eight five hundred, Josh
Speaker 1: Reynolds everyone's talked about for literally the last three weeks
Speaker 1: in DFS eight five hundred, and then Chris Hogan at
Speaker 1: seventy five hundred, which people have talked about for the
Speaker 1: last three weeks as well. People keep going back to
Speaker 1: these Josh Reynolds and Chris Hogan wells and hope it
Speaker 1: works that the people keep doing it. And I'm sure
Speaker 1: I'll do it in the Super Bowl because their price
Speaker 1: where they are, like, everybody will have one of these
Speaker 1: guys in their lineup, gentlemen, every single person. Now, I
Speaker 1: just and this is one of the things that kind
Speaker 1: of sets me off on FanDuel DFS. Is you know,
Speaker 1: when you look at the salaries on Fandel, then look
Speaker 1: at the salaries on DraftKings. I mean, on Fandel you
Speaker 1: just just said if Burkehead is five hundred dollars less
Speaker 1: than Robert Woods, I mean I don't get that. I
Speaker 1: don't get that at all. I mean you look, you
Speaker 1: go over to Draft Kings and you're looking at a
Speaker 1: few thousand dollar difference three thousand to be exact, between
Speaker 1: Woods and Burkehead. So you know, some some of these
Speaker 1: Vanduel prices to me just seeing way all from the
Speaker 1: get go, and I think that's something that you can
Speaker 1: exploit to Jim. I mean the way there are people
Speaker 1: who are profitable betting greg who literally open up tabs
Speaker 1: of twenty different sports books and they'll just compare numbers
Speaker 1: and say, I like the under on this player, Where
Speaker 1: can I find the highest number? That's the board. So
Speaker 1: you can use the strategy like Jim is presenting here
Speaker 1: where and you have to kind of you have to
Speaker 1: do the calculation yourself because DraftKings is PPR and Fandel
Speaker 1: is half PPR, so they care a little bit more
Speaker 1: about players who can score touchdowns. But again he's right,
Speaker 1: like the disparity should not be three thousand dollars on
Speaker 1: draft Kings of Robert Woods is three thousand dollars more
Speaker 1: than Rex birkehead. Robert Woods should not only be five
Speaker 1: dollars more on fandoms. So you can kind of compare
Speaker 1: draftings and fandel prices and you use it for for
Speaker 1: both ways and say, who are some of the guys
Speaker 1: who are undervalued or overvalued based on their salaries on
Speaker 1: respective sites. You can kind of hit those two against
Speaker 1: the other. I think I think it's a great point.
Speaker 1: With that, we sign off of YouTube for today. Up
Speaker 1: next Fantasy Football Frenzy with Corey Parsing, our our buddy,
Speaker 1: Jim Day and of course Chris Ventra, who all have
Speaker 1: all the final Super Bowl analysis. They're like, subscribe, rate
Speaker 1: us five stars and leave a comment. Subscribe to the channel.
Speaker 1: We always appreciate your support. We're live on the radio
Speaker 1: for another three minutes or so. Right, who is of
Speaker 1: this group? Actually go to Jim first, Jim who is
Speaker 1: of Gronk Doorset, Josh Reynolds, Chris Hogan, these are all
Speaker 1: nine thousand dollars or less. You're gonna have to have
Speaker 1: at least one, maybe two of these players in your
Speaker 1: single game lineup, if you want to be able to
Speaker 1: get a quarterback in there, if you want to get
Speaker 1: a girlie, if you want to get into Julian Edelman,
Speaker 1: If who is the one or two guys between Gronk,
Speaker 1: doorset Reynolds and Hogan where you are most likely to
Speaker 1: have in your line up. Rock Definitely, I think that
Speaker 1: Gronk's going out with a bang. We saw, you know,
Speaker 1: two weeks ago. He had a really good game, first
Speaker 1: game in a while, uh Taddy, he really stepped up,
Speaker 1: and I think that it happens again. I think he
Speaker 1: gets in the end zone in this one. Um. I
Speaker 1: just think he's gonna go out with a bang, and
Speaker 1: he's just gonna leave it all on the field, because
Speaker 1: I do think he's gonna retire after this year and
Speaker 1: go start making movies or whatever he wants to do. Um.
Speaker 1: So I like Gronk, and you know, maybe that's my
Speaker 1: head speaking. I've always been a Gronk fan, but I
Speaker 1: like Gronk. I think he's gonna go out there. I
Speaker 1: got him in a few lineups in the captain role
Speaker 1: because I think he's gonna go out big, you know.
Speaker 1: It's it's interesting. Gronk was given interesting answers this week
Speaker 1: when talking about his future, and he's like, listen, man,
Speaker 1: you just get hit so hard and you go full
Speaker 1: speed and all you do is get hit and you
Speaker 1: get beat up, and you get injured and you get hurt,
Speaker 1: and two days later you expected to practice at full
Speaker 1: speed back in the field. He's like, it's exhausting. It's
Speaker 1: like bodies are not meant especially what he does to
Speaker 1: blocking as much as he does. Like he's in the
Speaker 1: trenches more than you know. Bottom wide receivers and running
Speaker 1: bodies are not built for that ultimately, and that's what
Speaker 1: That's what Gronk said. He's not wrong. I agree with
Speaker 1: Jim out of these guys, Frank, that Gronk has the
Speaker 1: most ability I think to really explode. I think with
Speaker 1: Chris Hogan, with Josh Reynolds, you're hoping for a big play.
Speaker 1: None of these guys are gonna be featured. There's a
Speaker 1: chance that Rob and Cossey, he could wind up be
Speaker 1: featured in this game, that he could be a big
Speaker 1: part of the offense. Chris Hogan, Josh Reynolds, Filid door Set,
Speaker 1: that's not happening out of that crew drunks the answer.
Speaker 1: We'll say. Chris Hogan in Doorset are interesting to me
Speaker 1: just because I think Marcus Peters a guy who likes
Speaker 1: to bite a lot and could be prone to give
Speaker 1: being up the big play. These are the outside wide receivers.
Speaker 1: To them. We know Julian Edelman works mostly in the slot,
Speaker 1: drunk slot. Sometimes they move him outside. We all remember
Speaker 1: Romo pointing him out at the top of the screen.
Speaker 1: Uh he end up catching a long pass down the field.
Speaker 1: But I do think, you know, I think Josh Reynolds
Speaker 1: is the one that I'm least likely to used. To
Speaker 1: be honest, I think between Doorset and Hogan, as cheap
Speaker 1: as they are, I think one of these guys can
Speaker 1: have maybe a few twenty thirty. Like yesterday, I was
Speaker 1: gonna take the under on Chris Hogan or Dorsets longest
Speaker 1: catch because I believe Hogan's was like nineteen and a
Speaker 1: half and Dorsets was a little bit higher than that.
Speaker 1: But then I thought about it, and I thought, well,
Speaker 1: with a guy like Marcus Peters who likes to take chances,
Speaker 1: he's able to get beat deep sometimes like This isn't
Speaker 1: the safest bet because I could see one of these
Speaker 1: guys maybe doing something and popping off Philip Dorset, a
Speaker 1: guy who has scored a touchdown in three straight games.
Speaker 1: But it is worth mentioning that Chris Hogan is the
Speaker 1: one that consistently plays more so. He's played seventy of
Speaker 1: the snaps each of the past three weeks, so he's
Speaker 1: on the field more than a guy like Dorsett isn't
Speaker 1: on the field as much but has the ability to
Speaker 1: make bigger plays. I do like the Grandcola as well,
Speaker 1: just from a personnelity perspective. Brands gave up the eighth
Speaker 1: most Fantasy points that tight ends this year, probably going
Speaker 1: that way. Jim will save your official prediction for the Frenzy.
Speaker 1: Frank your final score please New England. I said it before,
Speaker 1: I'll say it again. You're going thirty four one. Adrius
Speaker 1: win again. Frenzy's up next. We'll see on Monday. We
Speaker 1: help
