00:00:00,640 --> 00:00:03,760

00:00:05,640 --> 00:00:08,440
Speaker 1: the world of sports. On Michael Larer along with Rich Truman.

4
00:00:08,920 --> 00:00:12,520
Speaker 1: Damien sass Our is off, but just because I said,

00:00:12,680 --> 00:00:15,960
Speaker 1: Rich Truman, now you should know by now what day

6
00:00:16,040 --> 00:00:19,840
Speaker 1: this is. It is Wednesday. It is more than Prince

00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:25,239
Speaker 1: Spaghetti Day. It is fantasy football Wednesday. Rich, How you

8
00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:29,040
Speaker 1: doing man? Not that good? Now? Let me tell you why.

9
00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:32,639
Speaker 1: Michael and I played each other in the fantasy playoffs

10
00:00:32,720 --> 00:00:36,640
Speaker 1: last week. And in my more than thirty years of

11
00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:41,800
Speaker 1: doing fantasy football, I've never mismanaged a game like I

12
00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:45,760
Speaker 1: did the other day. And let me explain, Michael. I

13
00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:49,080
Speaker 1: was in another country Friday, and I was gonna stay

14
00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:52,720
Speaker 1: an extra day and fly back Saturday. If I did that,

15
00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:54,920
Speaker 1: I have no access to any kind of computer or

16
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:58,280
Speaker 1: phone to make any lineup changes. I have my lineup

17
00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:02,440
Speaker 1: all set. But we flew back Friday, and then Saturday,

18
00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:04,679
Speaker 1: my wife goes, you know, as my sister's birthday, will

19
00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:07,399
Speaker 1: going to lunch, and I said, being the good husband

20
00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:10,600
Speaker 1: I am, I'm not going. It's all football on Saturday.

21
00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:13,800
Speaker 1: I'm watching football, So I'm playing Michael Barr in the

22
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:16,720
Speaker 1: early game and Michael jumps out to a good lead.

23
00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:20,160
Speaker 1: He has Jared Goffe, he has Justin Jefferson, he has

24
00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:23,520
Speaker 1: Travis Kelsey. I start to panic a little, and I go,

25
00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:25,600
Speaker 1: you know what if I play all my guys as

26
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:27,800
Speaker 1: schedule right now, I'm gonna be done after the Saturday

27
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:31,000
Speaker 1: four thirty game, and maybe I need some upside. So

28
00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:33,679
Speaker 1: I pulled Zekiel Elliott, who scored a touchdown, and I

29
00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:38,080
Speaker 1: dressed Sack Moss. I got burnt on it, but not

30
00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:42,319
Speaker 1: a major burn. But then, like an idiot, I decided

31
00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:45,280
Speaker 1: I don't know why. I still don't know why. I

32
00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:47,480
Speaker 1: pulled Ceedee Lamb out of the line up to play

33
00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:51,360
Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins, and I went into like ESP rankings, A

34
00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:54,560
Speaker 1: guy I follow a lot, he had Hopkins higher. I

35
00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:57,600
Speaker 1: thought maybe Tampa would put up forty five points in Arizona.

36
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:00,160
Speaker 1: Now I can blame my daughter on this part. Went

37
00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:03,000
Speaker 1: to Penn State. I saw Tamslole, he played for four years.

38
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:05,800
Speaker 1: I thought it was a halfway decent quarterback. So I

39
00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:07,880
Speaker 1: thought Hopkins would get a bunch of targets. He did

40
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:11,040
Speaker 1: get nine targets but one completion, so needless to say,

41
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:15,320
Speaker 1: I lost to Michael Barr because I pulled Ceedee Lamb

42
00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:20,000
Speaker 1: out of my lineup. And never have I mismanaged overmanaged

43
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:23,200
Speaker 1: anything like this before. So go with your best players

44
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:26,680
Speaker 1: and don't overthink it. I knew that Rich had Joe

45
00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 1: Burrow and Ceedee Lamb, so I'm not even thinking that

46
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:32,800
Speaker 1: they're not in his life. I didn't even say that

47
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:36,040
Speaker 1: I sat Joe Burrow for Justin fieldsn't even mentioned that part. Yeah,

48
00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:39,119
Speaker 1: that I've been telling him every single week. I saw

49
00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:42,320
Speaker 1: did a bencham. I'm looking at these games and I'm like, man,

50
00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:44,880
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get clawbered. And then I just happened to

51
00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:47,640
Speaker 1: bring up, you know, I'm looking at, of course, what

52
00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:50,840
Speaker 1: I'm making, and then I looked at what Rich was making,

53
00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:52,919
Speaker 1: and I'm like, wait a minute, he doesn't have Ceedee

54
00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:57,040
Speaker 1: lambitt wait a minute, he doesn't have Burrow. It holy mackerel.

55
00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:01,520
Speaker 1: And I'm just list it this way. I didn't win it.

56
00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:08,480
Speaker 1: Rich lost absolutely, absolutely very moronic decision. But even though

57
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:11,760
Speaker 1: I blame my family, have only myself to blame, he

58
00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:15,560
Speaker 1: gets lunch for me if I win this thing. Exactly

59
00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:18,080
Speaker 1: A good luck Michael, I am rooting for you who

60
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:21,480
Speaker 1: it's gonna be tight. Because now I'm just gonna suggest

61
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:24,320
Speaker 1: something out there, folks. Uh, if you are in the

62
00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:29,360
Speaker 1: championship game, it's time to play Hollywood squares. I'll take

63
00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:33,680
Speaker 1: Paul Lynde and some defenses the block. So get in

64
00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:38,440
Speaker 1: there and get some defenses. You might you might have

65
00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:42,320
Speaker 1: the Cowboys defense, which I have, but you don't want

66
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:45,200
Speaker 1: your opponent to have with those defenses. You don't want

67
00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:48,840
Speaker 1: them to have the Giants defense either, because they're looking good.

68
00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:54,680
Speaker 1: They're playing Indianapolis. They're playing Indianapolis, and I mean there

69
00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:57,600
Speaker 1: are a lot of even even when in the other league,

70
00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:02,400
Speaker 1: Kansas City defense was out there and and they're playing Denver,

71
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:04,960
Speaker 1: and we all know the fun Denver has been having.

72
00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:08,840
Speaker 1: So get out there if you can and grab up

73
00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:11,240
Speaker 1: some of those defenses. That's part of the game, folks.

74
00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:14,000
Speaker 1: It's like you want to stop your opponent from scoring

75
00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:18,480
Speaker 1: and keep it as as tight as you can and

76
00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:22,120
Speaker 1: get as many points as you can. By the way, Uh,

77
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:24,400
Speaker 1: if you want a high scoring game, I think this

78
00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:27,760
Speaker 1: is the highest scoring game out there, Detroit versus Chicago.

79
00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:30,240
Speaker 1: Out there is expected to be a high scoring game.

80
00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:35,640
Speaker 1: Detroit at home, Jared Golf at home. If you are

81
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:40,280
Speaker 1: struggling for a quarterback. That's not a bad option. Rich. No,

82
00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:42,440
Speaker 1: Now you say I lost the game and you didn't

83
00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:44,600
Speaker 1: win it, but I'll give you credit. You decided to

84
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:48,520
Speaker 1: address Jared Goff instead of Aaron Rodgers, and all of

85
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:51,200
Speaker 1: a sudden, when Caroline is killing him, he has six points.

86
00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:53,520
Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm great, I'm glad he played Jared Golf.

87
00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:59,479
Speaker 1: But then he ended up having three touchdown passes touchdown,

88
00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:02,400
Speaker 1: so he had a great And then you got that

89
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:05,320
Speaker 1: Viking field goal kicker had a sixty one yard field goal.

90
00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:08,600
Speaker 1: Uh that was That was another thing. It's like, you know,

91
00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:11,200
Speaker 1: get you get your field goal kickers. But you make

92
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:13,240
Speaker 1: a good point. Like in my other league, which I'm

93
00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:17,320
Speaker 1: still alive in, uh, we do criminal points. Like I

94
00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:19,880
Speaker 1: picked up Tyler Algier. I think you have him in

95
00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:23,480
Speaker 1: our league. Also, I know I haven't been I think anyway.

96
00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:25,560
Speaker 1: I picked him up ahead of a couple other guys

97
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:27,479
Speaker 1: who wanted to pick him up, and I'm thinking about

98
00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:29,520
Speaker 1: playing him because he's got a good match up against

99
00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:34,839
Speaker 1: um Arizona. But Michael makes a good point. Not only

100
00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 1: worry about your own team, try to prevent the other

101
00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:40,720
Speaker 1: team from picking up key players keep in mind too now.

102
00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 1: And I know you picked up Zack Moss and you

103
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:46,520
Speaker 1: played Zack mosson didn't work out well. But I do

104
00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:49,440
Speaker 1: think Zack Moss is a good play this week. The

105
00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:52,960
Speaker 1: Giants a little week against the run Indian Apples always

106
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:55,360
Speaker 1: obviously committed to the run. But we have to talk

107
00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:57,200
Speaker 1: to a bunch of injuries that you really need to

108
00:05:57,240 --> 00:05:59,200
Speaker 1: take note of. A couple of guys, I don't know

109
00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:02,040
Speaker 1: if they're gonna play or not, but Derek Henry's banged up.

110
00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:04,960
Speaker 1: This game is kind of meaningless to them because it's

111
00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:07,760
Speaker 1: the Week eighteen game, which is going to Decoded Division,

112
00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:11,120
Speaker 1: so I would not expect him to play a lot

113
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:14,400
Speaker 1: and they're playing Dallas. Tony Howard's missed a couple of

114
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:18,360
Speaker 1: practices this week, Aaron Jones got banged up against the Dolphins.

115
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:22,360
Speaker 1: Jamal Williams and Detroit got banged up last week. Uh So,

116
00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:24,360
Speaker 1: a couple of guys. You do need to make sure

117
00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:26,840
Speaker 1: you check the injury report before you you set your

118
00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:29,599
Speaker 1: lineup in and especially check out if you have Miami

119
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:32,400
Speaker 1: quarterback to a tack of viola because he's been in

120
00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:37,000
Speaker 1: a concussion protocol and there is a good chance that

121
00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:40,680
Speaker 1: he will not play, which means Teddy Bridgewater could be

122
00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:43,839
Speaker 1: an action rich. Yeah, you just said you have to

123
00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:45,720
Speaker 1: check those you have to check the line up. I

124
00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:47,800
Speaker 1: would think that they're gonna sit to I would just

125
00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:51,920
Speaker 1: but all the criticism they've gotten throughout the year with him.

126
00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:53,720
Speaker 1: I know it's a must win against New England, but

127
00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:56,880
Speaker 1: I think they might end up edging on the side

128
00:06:56,880 --> 00:07:01,599
Speaker 1: of caution. We haven't mentioned another quarterback, guard Minshew Good

129
00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:07,920
Speaker 1: Fantasy Day fourth and three Minshew rolling for the touchdown

130
00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:13,239
Speaker 1: to Smith. Yeah he did, and it could happen again.

131
00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:17,320
Speaker 1: Ken the lightning started twice. I don't know. You know

132
00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:20,680
Speaker 1: that they are playing New Orleans in Philadelphia whether I

133
00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:23,160
Speaker 1: think it's supposed to be unseasonably warm in the Northeast,

134
00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:25,480
Speaker 1: so that's an advantage. But New Orleans has a pretty

135
00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:27,600
Speaker 1: tough defense and they are coming off a win, so

136
00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:31,040
Speaker 1: to be determined. By the way, keep your eye on

137
00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:35,040
Speaker 1: Josh and Jacobs for the Raiders, because he didn't sound

138
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:41,000
Speaker 1: happy this past weekend. Uh. I don't think he's gonna

139
00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:44,280
Speaker 1: be with Las Vegas for very long reage. Yeah, but

140
00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:47,000
Speaker 1: as a fantasy player, we don't really care about next year.

141
00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:51,680
Speaker 1: Michael we care about this year, so I imagine he's

142
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:53,960
Speaker 1: playing for a contract. He was going to put as

143
00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:56,400
Speaker 1: a hundred in tem percent effort there, so I would

144
00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:58,480
Speaker 1: not hesitate the play. But he does have a tough

145
00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:01,800
Speaker 1: matchup against the forty Niners. Yeah, and that's something, by

146
00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:06,160
Speaker 1: the way, keep your eye on teams that have something

147
00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:09,800
Speaker 1: to play for it, because, believe it or not, green

148
00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:12,360
Speaker 1: Bay still has something to play for it. And you're

149
00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:15,000
Speaker 1: going up against Minnesota, which is twelve and three and

150
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:17,400
Speaker 1: their favorite over Minnesota the games in green Bay. But

151
00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:20,320
Speaker 1: green Bay is favorite over Minnesota. But the thing about

152
00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:23,760
Speaker 1: it is, man, green Bay has been like, just when

153
00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:26,920
Speaker 1: I think, okay, they're gonna show the old Green Bay

154
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:31,000
Speaker 1: lamb that no they happen, they haven't shown it. So

155
00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:33,880
Speaker 1: it's hard for me to trust the Packers. But you know,

156
00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:37,440
Speaker 1: it's also an interesting game playoff implication wise, not necessarily

157
00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:41,760
Speaker 1: fantasy wise. Carolina at Tampa, Yeah, and they beat the

158
00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:44,680
Speaker 1: living Carolina by the way, beat the stew out of them. Yeah.

159
00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:48,679
Speaker 1: Rushing the ball like crazy. Oh man, that see, that

160
00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:51,080
Speaker 1: was the thing at least the you know, I don't

161
00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:52,920
Speaker 1: even know how I got the points out of Jerry

162
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:56,240
Speaker 1: golf because that you know, usually the Lions put up

163
00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:58,680
Speaker 1: a good fight, you know, but that one, like you said,

164
00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:00,640
Speaker 1: they were just running the ball all over the place,

165
00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:03,880
Speaker 1: and Danton Foreman and and those guys, they were just

166
00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:08,360
Speaker 1: I was looking at a stat I believe he was

167
00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:11,199
Speaker 1: one of the obviously worst running backs, not even registering,

168
00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:13,559
Speaker 1: and now he's been like a top five or six

169
00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:15,840
Speaker 1: running back the last couple of weeks. Have a cam

170
00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:19,040
Speaker 1: acres of the Rams, Yeah, hands off acres jump cut

171
00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:20,920
Speaker 1: to his left, it's a race of the pylone acres

172
00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:25,240
Speaker 1: and Steve Akers a hat trick touchdown cam the Ram

173
00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:33,280
Speaker 1: touchdown came back from the dead, yeah, because at first,

174
00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:36,120
Speaker 1: at the beginning of the season, it is like, where's

175
00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:38,240
Speaker 1: the guy? What's happening? Is like, you know, he was

176
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:39,880
Speaker 1: dead in the water, and then all of a sudden

177
00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:44,240
Speaker 1: kerb boom. It's the only position still though, that is

178
00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:48,319
Speaker 1: still bad, uh tied in. I mean, unless you have

179
00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:52,440
Speaker 1: Travis kelsey Man, I don't even know who else you

180
00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:55,559
Speaker 1: would pick up out there. That's funny. In my other league,

181
00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:58,920
Speaker 1: I picked up Taysom Hill at the last minute because

182
00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:01,360
Speaker 1: I had a feel that are short running back snortings.

183
00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:03,160
Speaker 1: I had a feeling he would maybe score rushing touch

184
00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:04,959
Speaker 1: on so that move actually paid off for me in

185
00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:08,480
Speaker 1: the Italy folks, good luck, we hope that you have.

186
00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:11,079
Speaker 1: No good luck to you, Michael barn No, thank you.

187
00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:18,440
Speaker 1: You're still in the consolation game. Wonderful. Let's clean the

188
00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:23,600
Speaker 1: mic call for all the sarcasm and folks, good luck.

189
00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:26,040
Speaker 1: I hope you guys out there, don't you tell everybody

190
00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:30,000
Speaker 1: you're starting your tentative starting lineup for the championship game. Well, definitely, okay,

191
00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:32,680
Speaker 1: well I can tell you this. It's in our league.

192
00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:35,439
Speaker 1: Is definitely gonna be Jared Golf, is definitely going to

193
00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:39,480
Speaker 1: be Travis Kelsey, uh, Rustin Jefferson, Sustin Jefferson a t

194
00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:44,439
Speaker 1: n uh. And I'm still trying to debate, uh if

195
00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:48,200
Speaker 1: I still want to keep the Cowboys defense or scramble

196
00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:51,400
Speaker 1: out there and try to find somebody else. I don't know, man,

197
00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:54,440
Speaker 1: I'm thinking. I'm thinking, and now you played a J. Dilling.

198
00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:56,319
Speaker 1: They're gonna roll the dice with him again. I think

199
00:10:56,360 --> 00:11:00,920
Speaker 1: I am because you said, yeah, so I might throw

200
00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:03,600
Speaker 1: it them throw them back out there. Man. So but

201
00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:06,319
Speaker 1: you know we got a worthy opponent. We're only separated

202
00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:08,560
Speaker 1: by like a point plus. You have Gabe Davis, and

203
00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:10,760
Speaker 1: that that we didn't even talk about the high scoring

204
00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:12,880
Speaker 1: game of the week. That that should be the Buffalo

205
00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:16,560
Speaker 1: Cincinnati game. Yeah, and that's and that's Monday night. Now

206
00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:19,000
Speaker 1: you do have Gabe Davis, so you might want to

207
00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:21,920
Speaker 1: keep him for that last possible if you need a

208
00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:23,560
Speaker 1: little boost at the end to keep him on the

209
00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:26,120
Speaker 1: Monday night game. But if you if you follow my

210
00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:29,200
Speaker 1: advice and then the last week, I don't know if

211
00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:30,880
Speaker 1: you want to follow out vice, but that should be

212
00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:33,240
Speaker 1: a high scoring game. No, you're right. I mean you

213
00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:36,600
Speaker 1: got Buffalo twelve and three, Cincinnati eleven and four. Uh,

214
00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:41,440
Speaker 1: that's going to be at Cincinnati. At Cincinnati and Buffalo

215
00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:43,080
Speaker 1: is favored by only what a point and a half?

216
00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:45,600
Speaker 1: It's that's going to be a heck of a game.

217
00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:50,199
Speaker 1: So it's yeah, I might have to keep Welcome back

218
00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:55,080
Speaker 1: Hutter Gabe in there from Monday. Man. This has been

219

224
00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:12,840
Speaker 1: if you're playing in week eight teen, I don't know why,

225
00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:17,560
Speaker 1: but you know some people are. I always thought, you know, well,

226
00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:20,640
Speaker 1: it all depends. My other league is a cuminal points league.

227
00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:23,240
Speaker 1: That's the majority of the payoff, and then we go

228
00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:26,320
Speaker 1: full eighteen weeks and some people also do two weeks

229
00:12:26,320 --> 00:12:30,800
Speaker 1: for the championship. So keep keep your eye on the prize, folks.
