Speaker 1: speeds and spitting Statistician on Fantasy Freestyle. Off next on
Speaker 1: that cipher on the microphone. You know that I'm one
Speaker 1: of the best, yet Martinez, do you know what it is?
Speaker 1: It's your boy, Dame Martinez, a k A. Speeds a
Speaker 1: k A to spitting Statistician a k a. The stable
Speaker 1: Genius and vocal minority, And welcome to another edition of
Speaker 1: the Fantasy Freestyle right here on the award winning Fantasy
Speaker 1: Sports Radio Network. You know what it is, y'all through
Speaker 1: save I am back for the Stats Overbeat Cipher. I
Speaker 1: was talking to my man Danny Otto down there in
Speaker 1: the fantasy pit of misery, and I have not been
Speaker 1: holding it down with the cipher since the day after
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. Okay, it was February four, the last
Speaker 1: time that we had a Fantasy Freestyle, which a boy
Speaker 1: that's betting statistician riding here in Studio thirty four making
Speaker 1: it pop off for the Stats Overbeat Cipher. A lot
Speaker 1: has changed since I have last been on this microphone
Speaker 1: in this place. But yet a lot stays the same.
Speaker 1: As we know, we have had changes in player movements
Speaker 1: and a whole lot of levels. Everybody knows about that.
Speaker 1: But we have also had player movement in Major League Baseball,
Speaker 1: in the NFL, we had some in the NBA since
Speaker 1: I last spoke to you. But you know what does
Speaker 1: not change is that I'm here to give you that
Speaker 1: fire to help you win your leagues and win that cash.
Speaker 1: So here's what we're gonna do, alright, because it has
Speaker 1: been a while. It has been three full weeks. Okay,
Speaker 1: real deal stats over beats for people. Remember that right
Speaker 1: after the Super Bowl, I went on a little vacation. Okay,
Speaker 1: when you win your leagues and when you win that cash,
Speaker 1: you gotta spend some of that cash. Okay, So we
Speaker 1: did some of that, spend some of that. Let you
Speaker 1: all know about my travels. Right then. Last Monday was
Speaker 1: President's Day. Dilly dilly to everybody out there celebrating President's
Speaker 1: Day last Monday. So it's been a minute, all right.
Speaker 1: So if you want to holler at me this episode,
Speaker 1: there's a lot of places you can do that. First
Speaker 1: of all, you can hit me up on Twitter at
Speaker 1: spitting speeds as always where we gotta pull question up
Speaker 1: a holler at you about that poll question in a second.
Speaker 1: But the phone lines will be open for the entire
Speaker 1: back half of the show because my status of beat
Speaker 1: cipher hasn't had a chance to talk to the spitting
Speaker 1: statistician in a little while. Okay, so the number of
Speaker 1: call will be three four seven seven six seven six
Speaker 1: six one four. We'll throw that out. Will open up
Speaker 1: the phone lines for Connor and Tampa, for Jilly Dilley,
Speaker 1: for Strong Style, for Lance Davis, and anybody else who
Speaker 1: wants to holler at the vocal minority. But here's what
Speaker 1: we're gonna do. I'm gonna spend one We're gonna talk
Speaker 1: a little bit about baseball. Okay, Hope Springs eternal pitches
Speaker 1: and catchers have reported. I'm gonna talk to you to
Speaker 1: be honest about why I can't really give you many
Speaker 1: season win predictions just yet. You know how always do
Speaker 1: the totals over and unders. I can't really give you
Speaker 1: my top ten second base ranks just yet. I know, listen,
Speaker 1: the BFFs are out there doing it for you, right
Speaker 1: I know they are. I know you've got guys like
Speaker 1: Adam Rowns on this network talking about there the guys
Speaker 1: who you like for fantasy baseball. I'm gonna tell you
Speaker 1: why speeds and getting into that just yet. I'll let
Speaker 1: you know about that. Then in our middle segment we
Speaker 1: will be talking about the NFL and the changes that
Speaker 1: are coming. Yeah, we could talk a little bit about that.
Speaker 1: Robert Craft. I got so many little one liners about that,
Speaker 1: if you want to do it, everything from deflated football's
Speaker 1: to Meek Mill maybe needed to bail Robert Craft out
Speaker 1: instead of vice versa, right instead to the Patriots always
Speaker 1: got over by videotaping other teams. What happens when they
Speaker 1: get videotaped? Right? And now you even seeing pictures on
Speaker 1: social media to you about listen, if Bob Kraft will
Speaker 1: kiss Tom Brady in the mouth, who knows what else
Speaker 1: he's doing. But I don't want to go too far
Speaker 1: on that topic because you know, it all is still pending,
Speaker 1: and obviously the larger issue of um, you know, human trafficking, sex, sex,
Speaker 1: slavery is not one to be discussed lightly. But if
Speaker 1: I get a chance to do a little bit of
Speaker 1: jab at Robber Kraft and is deflated football's as a
Speaker 1: seventy year old. You know, I might, you know I might.
Speaker 1: But in any event, what we're really gonna talk about
Speaker 1: is I'm gonna tell you what I think is going
Speaker 1: down with Pittsburgh, the Pittsburgh Steelers and their players that
Speaker 1: are you know, set and sale. It looks like the
Speaker 1: breakup of the Steelers and the Killer Bees. Remember it
Speaker 1: was Big Ben Brown and Bell. The Killer Bees are
Speaker 1: no longer. I'll tell you where I think those guys
Speaker 1: are going. And then Danny, I don't know how you feel,
Speaker 1: but I want to tell you about my vacation. All right,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you about my vacation, catch up with
Speaker 1: the status over beat cipher. And also I gotta tell
Speaker 1: you guys about, um some other real funny stories that
Speaker 1: I have seen that are out there in the last
Speaker 1: couple of weeks. And I want to ask you guys,
Speaker 1: especially my man Danny Otto, Um, you know, which is
Speaker 1: the most crazy story that I'm gonna give you since, uh,
Speaker 1: since I've been out there. Yo, I want to tell
Speaker 1: you guys. First of all, big Shot out to Strong
Speaker 1: Style saying welcome back, Dane Francisco, Jilly Dilley in the building,
Speaker 1: Jilly Dilley, I need you to check me and Danny.
Speaker 1: We thought this was episode three sixty four. Can you
Speaker 1: check Danny's math? Okay, and everybody that's out there. Jeremy McMahon,
Speaker 1: thank you guys. You know I'm I'm missed being with
Speaker 1: the status over beats Cipher as well. So we're gonna
Speaker 1: get into it right now. Here's the thing, all right,
Speaker 1: let's start. First of all, I got a poll question, right,
Speaker 1: and my poll question is this, if you're like in
Speaker 1: your mid twenties, right, which Manny Machado, Bryce Harper. These guys,
Speaker 1: let's not forget that they are. They are guys in
Speaker 1: their mid twenties that have the world as their oyster
Speaker 1: can do anyway there dann Well please, and they know
Speaker 1: they got generational wealth locked in right no matter where
Speaker 1: they go. So I find it a little bit weird
Speaker 1: that we all as fans look to ascribe they should
Speaker 1: do be like Na Na Na. They need to try
Speaker 1: to play with a contender. They should try to want
Speaker 1: to win a championship. Du it is twenty five years old.
Speaker 1: When you were twenty five years old, did you know
Speaker 1: what you wanted to do ten years later? In your life,
Speaker 1: what city you wanted to be in? I didn't, So
Speaker 1: why should we pretend like we like? They need to?
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. So my pole question is this,
Speaker 1: and I'm so happy to be back in the saddle
Speaker 1: with the stats O beat Cipher. My pole question is this.
Speaker 1: If you're in your mid twenties and can literally write
Speaker 1: your own check and do whatever you want, which are
Speaker 1: these four factors would be the most important to you
Speaker 1: when you were signing with a Major League Baseball franchise.
Speaker 1: Would it be the total contract value? You know, we're
Speaker 1: here on Bryce Harper. He wants to go to ten million.
Speaker 1: He wants to one up Manny Machado. It was three
Speaker 1: ten years for three hundred million. He wants to one
Speaker 1: up the Giancarlo total value package Jian Carlos standards three
Speaker 1: twenty five million, albeit for thirteen years. Right, we're here
Speaker 1: and that Scott Boris is agent, and that he's gonna
Speaker 1: settle no less. Right, So is it that the total
Speaker 1: contract value or is it something else? The annual the
Speaker 1: average annual value, which I think is really interesting. Okay,
Speaker 1: everybody's talking about Bryce Harper once this ten year deal.
Speaker 1: I think the other way Scott Boris his agent, and
Speaker 1: Bryce Harper can like redefine the market. Would be what
Speaker 1: happens if the Dodgers of the Giants out West want
Speaker 1: to pay him just a two year deal but for
Speaker 1: like seventy five million dollars eighty million dollars forty million
Speaker 1: a year, dramatically pushing the at the yearly salary to
Speaker 1: new heights for Major League Baseball. Wouldn't that like be
Speaker 1: benchmark setting enough for you, Scott Borris, enough for you,
Speaker 1: Bryce Harper? Would that be what you wanted the highest
Speaker 1: you know, average annual value in your salary? Or would
Speaker 1: it be about the city that you're going to? Right?
Speaker 1: And that could be two ways. Do you want a
Speaker 1: team that's a contender that where you're gonna win year
Speaker 1: in and year out, or you're gonna have a chance
Speaker 1: to win that that franchise is one of the blue
Speaker 1: chip franchises that always has a chance to win. Is
Speaker 1: that what you're looking for? Or what about just the
Speaker 1: city that it's in and then nightlife of that city
Speaker 1: if you're twenty six years old. Right, Lebron went to
Speaker 1: l A as we now know, not to win. Right.
Speaker 1: He went because he wanted his brand out there in
Speaker 1: Los Angeles. He wanted his kids to go to that school.
Speaker 1: He wanted to buy the house in l A. He
Speaker 1: wanted to be Hollywood Manny Machado, who just signed a
Speaker 1: ten year, three hundred million dollar contract. People are like, oh,
Speaker 1: he made a bad move standing signing with the San
Speaker 1: Diego Fathers. No he didn't, No, he didn't. All right,
Speaker 1: and maybe they won't win for the first two three
Speaker 1: years of that deal. But the Padres have the number
Speaker 1: one farm system in all of Major League Baseball. Fernando
Speaker 1: Tatis Jr. They gotta catch r Mahea. They've got Renfro
Speaker 1: and Marco already up. Okay, they got other prospects on
Speaker 1: the come. I wouldn't mind living in beautiful weather in
Speaker 1: San Diego, playing eighty of my home games. They're eighty
Speaker 1: my home games there, earning thirty million dollars a year
Speaker 1: as a twin six year old. You think I can't
Speaker 1: go to Lahoya. You think I can't go to the beach?
Speaker 1: You do you think I won't get a little golf
Speaker 1: card and rotting out right around in Cornado. I see
Speaker 1: you out there, Unicorn. You know what I'm saying, Like,
Speaker 1: come on, that's a good life. I a'm at at him.
Speaker 1: Who are we to say, na, na na. Instead, you
Speaker 1: should try to toil in Chicago or in Philadelphia when
Speaker 1: it's gonna be freezing in April and in October for
Speaker 1: teams that the White Sox have no better chance of
Speaker 1: winning than the Padres do. I actually believe the Padres
Speaker 1: are on the come. I believe the Padres are ascending.
Speaker 1: I believe the Padres are a year or two behind
Speaker 1: what we've seen. We've seen this model work. The Kansas
Speaker 1: City Royals want a title. The Chicago Cubs won a title.
Speaker 1: The Houston Astros won a title. I believe three years
Speaker 1: in a row, fifteen, sixteen, seventeen. The Padres are just
Speaker 1: that kind of farm system. Maybe they're putt in the
Speaker 1: cherry on top in Many Machado a little bit early.
Speaker 1: But they got him for ten years, so maybe they
Speaker 1: had to pay them. I think it's all good. Okay,
Speaker 1: So maybe Many is cool with the city that he's
Speaker 1: gonna be in and that the team is on the
Speaker 1: way up instead of well, you know, we heard he
Speaker 1: wanted to be with the Yankees, and that would have
Speaker 1: been the quality of the team, right, But he wasn't
Speaker 1: willing to sacrifice the total contract value. So all of
Speaker 1: these I think are valid, and that is the poll question. Okay,
Speaker 1: So I want to know, do you out there at
Speaker 1: spitting speeds that cant's total contract value, annual average value,
Speaker 1: the city of the team, or the quality of the team.
Speaker 1: I think those are legitimate factors out there to consider.
Speaker 1: Let me know at spitting speeds is the poll. Big
Speaker 1: shout out to everybody. Mentel Bruce in the building saying
Speaker 1: the guaranteed contract amount. That's interesting because a lot of
Speaker 1: these contracts are written on toilet paper. They could just
Speaker 1: cut you, especially in the NFL. So he's looking for
Speaker 1: the guaranteed money. I am at at that. Let's not
Speaker 1: also forget that in different states there's different levels of
Speaker 1: state tax. Okay, so the three million in one state
Speaker 1: is far less than another. All right, big shout out
Speaker 1: of there, Gregory Castillo, Jeremy McMahon, all right, all right,
Speaker 1: all right, you know you're talking about my boy. I'll
Speaker 1: have a couple of words on a fantasy exactly a
Speaker 1: little bit later on. But you know, San Diego is
Speaker 1: a beautiful city, says strong Style. I know it, I
Speaker 1: know it well all right, but in any event, let's
Speaker 1: keep it moving here. Um. So here's the other thing.
Speaker 1: And like I said, the reason that I can't tell
Speaker 1: you necessarily you know what I'm saying. If if the
Speaker 1: Astills are gonna run away with the a L West,
Speaker 1: if the Indians are gonna run away like they did
Speaker 1: last year with the Al Central, here's the thing I'll
Speaker 1: tell you right now. I view the A L as
Speaker 1: a three horse race. I think it's Boston, I think
Speaker 1: it's my Yankees, and I think it's the Houston Nashvills.
Speaker 1: But here's why I can't tell you that definitively. Yet.
Speaker 1: There is a we all know about Machado and Harper
Speaker 1: who still as yet you know, is he gonna go
Speaker 1: with a short deal with the Dodgers of the Giants?
Speaker 1: Are the Phillies gonna really make it work? Here's the deal, though,
Speaker 1: I got an entire like legit team that's like yet
Speaker 1: to be unsigned. Besides Bryce Harper, you got Evan Daddis.
Speaker 1: You got Matt Weeters as catchers both unsigned, Logan Morrison
Speaker 1: unsigned as a first baseman. You got as Drew Ba Cabrera,
Speaker 1: Logan Forsyth as second baseman, unsigned, Jose and Glessias borderline
Speaker 1: All Star as a shortstop still unsigned. Outfield, you got
Speaker 1: Bryce Harper unsigned, Adam Jones unsigned. You got starting pitching
Speaker 1: everyone from Dallas, Kiko Lagio Gonzalez to Clay buck Holtz
Speaker 1: all unsigned. Craig Kimbrell and others still unsigned. You're telling me,
Speaker 1: you know, the Minnesota Twins just made a play. I
Speaker 1: believe it's from Marwin Gonzalez. We have people like Marwin Gonzalez,
Speaker 1: Josh Harrison still unsigned, but we're unsigned until last week.
Speaker 1: You're telling me if the Minnesota Twins, you know, make
Speaker 1: a big play for two of these guys that are
Speaker 1: not named Bryce Harper, that they can't, you know, close
Speaker 1: the gap on the Indians and the AL Central. Maybe
Speaker 1: the NL Central is real competitive right now. I think
Speaker 1: the NL Central is at three maybe four team race.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. St. Louis got a lot
Speaker 1: better goldch At Andrew Miller and others. Chicago is still there.
Speaker 1: Milwaukee was in the NLCS last year. The Reds have
Speaker 1: made moves. Okay, what what happens if they signed you know,
Speaker 1: Craig Kimberle at the back end and the A and
Speaker 1: and at least the same thing you got the Phillies,
Speaker 1: you got the Braves. I think the Mets are gonna
Speaker 1: be a lot better than last year. I think if
Speaker 1: you tell me Jacob Degram, Noah Synderguard, Zach Wheeler, and
Speaker 1: Stephen Matt's are all healthy, I think the Mets are
Speaker 1: gonna be compelling competitive baseball in September. What happens if
Speaker 1: they sign what happens if they signed Craig Kimberl to
Speaker 1: augment that bullpen which already has Edwin Diaz who they
Speaker 1: traded for, and Familiar who they got back. How do
Speaker 1: we know? And then when you're making fantasy ranks, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean? Like look at look at the
Speaker 1: San Diego Padres, for example, what whatever you thought of
Speaker 1: Eric Hosmer changed when they signed Manny Machado. If Bryce
Speaker 1: Harper signs with the Phillies, you don't think that changes
Speaker 1: the production of a guy like Reheese Hoskins and pumps
Speaker 1: him up first base rankings. I do, And we just
Speaker 1: don't know that just yet, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1: So I told you all these guys that are still
Speaker 1: left unsigned are still ready to make an impact. Okay,
Speaker 1: So I think it's still interesting. Anybody who's out there
Speaker 1: get telling you exactly. You know who's gonna win what
Speaker 1: what to take the over hum during the season win
Speaker 1: totals on some of these teams. We just don't know.
Speaker 1: I was talking to this morning. We talked to a
Speaker 1: Beat reporter. By the way, you guys, remember, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: make it rain. Okay, that's why we're only here one
Speaker 1: once a week now with the status over beat Cipher.
Speaker 1: But a big shout out to everybody and all the
Speaker 1: love in the YouTube chat, you know, people saying welcome back,
Speaker 1: that they missed me, all that good stuff. Um, Strong Style,
Speaker 1: I'll talk about that combine and who I like to
Speaker 1: stand out in the next segment, and I'll talk about
Speaker 1: a B. I like what you're going there though, Strong Style.
Speaker 1: I'm with you, UM for both of them. Thank you,
Speaker 1: Jilly Dilley saying it is three sixty four. By the way,
Speaker 1: I appreciate that. All right, Yes, you were correct, Danny.
Speaker 1: That's why you're the man. Okay, Cipher, stand dumb. Glad
Speaker 1: Speeds is still in the building. Yeah, survive, guys. I survived,
Speaker 1: all right, you know what it is, um, But what
Speaker 1: I was saying is I was on making rain this morning,
Speaker 1: and by the way, I'm gonna make it rain six
Speaker 1: to nine am Eastern. I'm sorry, Jilly Dillions like three
Speaker 1: am by you. If you want to wake up and
Speaker 1: go to bed with speeds, I can tell you a
Speaker 1: lullaby every day. But in any event, we were talking
Speaker 1: to the Boston Red Sox beat reporter. Okay, and he
Speaker 1: still didn't know if maybe Kimball would come back to Boston.
Speaker 1: You know that dramatically changes these teams. Okay, what I'll
Speaker 1: tell you what I think should happen. I think I
Speaker 1: think Harper should reset the market in a different way
Speaker 1: and should sign a two year, eighty million dollar contract
Speaker 1: and give himself another out. That's what Lebron did. Remember
Speaker 1: this idea of the short contracts and betting on yourself.
Speaker 1: The kid is twenty six years old. Let him sign
Speaker 1: a two year deal with the Dodgers, get paid, compete
Speaker 1: for a World Series, and then guess what, when he's
Speaker 1: twenty eight years old, get another bite at the apple.
Speaker 1: That's what I think he should do. I think they
Speaker 1: should reset the market, not in this ten year contract way,
Speaker 1: because people don't care about that anymore. Those are all bad.
Speaker 1: Those are all bad deals on the back end. I
Speaker 1: believe Bryce Harper needs to take a stand most like
Speaker 1: we saw it. To be quite honest, Left Bell take
Speaker 1: a stand and we're gonna talk about left Bell a
Speaker 1: B and the Steelers UM and the and the combine
Speaker 1: and some other stuff just like my man strong style
Speaker 1: wants in in a minute or two. But that's what
Speaker 1: I think Harper needs to do. I think he needs
Speaker 1: to go out west, take a two year, seventy five
Speaker 1: eighty million dollar deal, keep an eye out for some
Speaker 1: of these teams because he doesn't like Philadelphia for some reason.
Speaker 1: Keep an eye on him compromising and doing one of
Speaker 1: these short term deals. And that's what I think is
Speaker 1: interesting right now. Though in the poll, forty five percent
Speaker 1: of you say the city of the team. That could
Speaker 1: be l A, that could be New York, that could
Speaker 1: be San Diego or Wales, Vagina. For a guy like
Speaker 1: Manny Machado. When we come back, I shoved gears and
Speaker 1: we talk NFL with the stats over there, Siper, where
Speaker 1: are these Steelers going? That's what I'm gonna tell you.
Speaker 1: We come back, Fantasy freestyle, you dig sacrified rains, make
Speaker 1: it rain be all of a reaction with the Robert
Speaker 1: Craft has somehow now gotta lose this team or have
Speaker 1: to give it off. And they're making comparisons on what
Speaker 1: happened with the Clippers owner. What are you people talking about?
Speaker 1: Jim Ursay was pulled over with like grand deadhook and
Speaker 1: what he had. He had to be away from the
Speaker 1: team for like five weeks. You know, I mean this
Speaker 1: is gonna be absolutely fine. It is all karma though.

Speaker 1: There's something there because they have offered the most money,
Speaker 1: and it's been the most money. I don't know much
Speaker 1: more of the Phillies can do. They've met with him
Speaker 1: a million times and he still hasn't pulled the trigger.

Speaker 1: So we give a big shout out to everybody for
Speaker 1: show doing what they gotta do. UM, what I was
Speaker 1: going to say. What I was going to say is
Speaker 1: we got that, um Twitter pole still up. The city
Speaker 1: of the team is still the number one option right there?
Speaker 1: So what is the number one criterion? Shall we say?
Speaker 1: And and so here's what I want to do now.
Speaker 1: I want to tell you about the two things that
Speaker 1: since we have last spoke, I think of the biggest
Speaker 1: things in in the NFL in terms of player movement.
Speaker 1: Uh One is what Denver is doing or trying to
Speaker 1: figure out what Denver is doing, because listen, John Elway,
Speaker 1: great quarterback, but as the front office, dude blunt guts trash,
Speaker 1: blunt gluts trash and he did it again. I'm trying
Speaker 1: to figure that out. We'll talk about that, and then
Speaker 1: we'll talk about Pittsburgh because you know my man strong Style.
Speaker 1: Wants to know about where I think Antonio Brown is going.
Speaker 1: I will give you that answer, um in this segment.
Speaker 1: People want to know about Levan Bell. I will give
Speaker 1: you my answer for that in this segment, um. And
Speaker 1: I'm also gonna give you some some ways to make
Speaker 1: a little bit of uh, a little bit of cash.
Speaker 1: Jeremy McMahon, h Town is one of my two places.
Speaker 1: And this is a Jets fan. Okay, A lot of
Speaker 1: people talking about him going to the Jets. I don't
Speaker 1: want him. I'll tell you where. I do think he's
Speaker 1: going to go. Uh Vivian going to the Jets. Strong Style,
Speaker 1: I don't know about that, but let's get it. In
Speaker 1: the first thing I wanted to ask, tell you guys
Speaker 1: about what in the hell is John Elway and the
Speaker 1: Denver Broncos doing. Okay, listen, here's the thing. John Elway,
Speaker 1: since he had Hayton Manning when he won the Super Bowl,
Speaker 1: who like fifty touchdowns and then was a shell of
Speaker 1: his former self when that defense won that Super Bowl,
Speaker 1: what has he really done? He drafted Trevor Simeon didn't
Speaker 1: work out. He draft, he traded up to draft Paxton
Speaker 1: Lynch didn't work out. He signed case Keenum because he
Speaker 1: thought case Keenum was gonna be the man all season.
Speaker 1: Jilly Dilley, I'm sure you have it in your notes.
Speaker 1: I was saying that case Keenum performed out of his
Speaker 1: mind that year with Minnesota and that if he's just
Speaker 1: gonna regress to what he normally is, he's not worth
Speaker 1: that money. And so we knew this right and I
Speaker 1: was on something. Yes, he got he got Lindsay. I'll
Speaker 1: give you that. I'll give you that strong style they
Speaker 1: got Von Miller and Philip Lindsay. I like some of
Speaker 1: their wide receivers for Fantasy next year. I like Courtland Sutton.
Speaker 1: You know I've been on day Shawn Hamilton's He's gonna
Speaker 1: be in the slot. The question is who's gonna be
Speaker 1: throwing him the damn ball? And we figured that out apparently.
Speaker 1: I just think it's silly. So, while since I last
Speaker 1: spoke to y'all on the Status over Beat site for
Speaker 1: the dever, Broncos go ahead and trade for Joe Flacco.
Speaker 1: So here's the deal. You have to give something up
Speaker 1: to get Joe Flacco, and Joe Flacco is no different
Speaker 1: than case Keenum. They are both bridge quarterbacks. Both of them,
Speaker 1: Case Keenum or Joe Flacco are fine if you're gonna
Speaker 1: draft the quarterback in the first or second round. If
Speaker 1: they're gonna be by the way, Josh Rosen, even as
Speaker 1: a second year quarterback, maybe on the move. Because I
Speaker 1: believe the Arizona Cardinals and new head coach Cliff Kenningsbury
Speaker 1: loves himself some Kyler Murray said it as much last season.
Speaker 1: Don't be surprised if the Arizona Cardinals cut bait on
Speaker 1: Josh Rosen and trade him to a team. And guess what,
Speaker 1: the Denver Broncos might be that team. But I digress.
Speaker 1: Just remember Jilly just put it in notes just in case.
Speaker 1: But I digress. Um, I think they don't really know
Speaker 1: what they want to do. They're both bridge quarterbacks. That's
Speaker 1: like a latter will move. So if you're gonna go
Speaker 1: and groom a new kid somewhere, Case Keendom is fine.
Speaker 1: So what does this mean is that you're gonna have
Speaker 1: to get rid of the Case Keenom contract and that deal.
Speaker 1: So then it makes no sense to have to spend
Speaker 1: some kind of capital, whether it's draft picks, or even
Speaker 1: just money or a player to get Joe Flacco. Like what,
Speaker 1: I don't understand how John always think that Joe Flacco
Speaker 1: is like the answer. He's nothing more than a bridge,
Speaker 1: which is what you already have. In case Keenom, He's
Speaker 1: not your long term answer. Joe Flacco is in his
Speaker 1: mid thirties, right, He's he's no different unless you think
Speaker 1: he's like the win now quarterback for you, and and
Speaker 1: go ask Ozzy Newsom in the Baltimore Ravens if that's
Speaker 1: the case. They let Lamar Jackson in the last half
Speaker 1: of the season and into the playoffs start of Joe Flacco.
Speaker 1: Joe Flacco is a guy similar to Eli Manning, who
Speaker 1: had a playoff run bet on himself and his kind
Speaker 1: of prestige and the narrative around him. He's all because
Speaker 1: of those one or two in Eli's case, playoff runs
Speaker 1: that he had. But for Joe Flacco, that was like
Speaker 1: eight years ago. That was when Colin Kaepernick was in
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl with the Niners. That was when the
Speaker 1: Super there was a blackout in the Super Bowl. It
Speaker 1: was like eight years ago. Joe Flacco is not that man.
Speaker 1: Joe Flacco used to have a quig strong arm. He
Speaker 1: does not anymore. I do not understand what the Denver
Speaker 1: Broncos are doing. That is another reason they are blunt,
Speaker 1: guts trashed. Jeremy McMahon is on with me. Oh yeah yeah,
Speaker 1: Ryan Ryan Hannigan for show Yo, Um, Mayor of Harlem
Speaker 1: represent I Dilly Dilly Dilly dilley to him. Of course
Speaker 1: we still cool. I was on vacation. Um when I
Speaker 1: went down. I have spoken to the Fantasy executive. Um,
Speaker 1: he's he's staying up. He's staying up. And of course
Speaker 1: we love the Fantasy executive. Okay, Um, you know that's
Speaker 1: all I can say about that, you know, but I
Speaker 1: got I got love. I got love for the Fantasy
Speaker 1: executive of course. Okay, I'm definitely still cool with him,
Speaker 1: for sure, definitely still cool with him. Okay, we love
Speaker 1: the Mayor of Harlem. I live up in Washington Heights.
Speaker 1: We even see each other sometimes uptown. Next time we
Speaker 1: do that, we'll have chew to video or something. Let
Speaker 1: the people know. Okay, I'm repping. I'm repping goon Squad.
Speaker 1: Everybody you know me, you know me, if you know me,
Speaker 1: status of beast, if you know all the Speeds Dove
Speaker 1: has spread love for everybody, Okay, whether they're here or
Speaker 1: not anymore. There's been a number of people that I've
Speaker 1: worked with here that I'm not here anymore. I got
Speaker 1: love for all of them. And anybody who knows Speeds
Speaker 1: and though knows that no true, true words could be spoken. Alright,
Speaker 1: So dilly dilly Ryan, Yeah, Mendo mac flack may throw further,
Speaker 1: but that was also he had that big arm a
Speaker 1: long time ago. Okay, he has gone down um in
Speaker 1: the last couple of years. So I'm a little bit
Speaker 1: confused by that one. But let's talk really more about
Speaker 1: the Pittsburgh Steelers, Okay, because I think it's just completely
Speaker 1: unraveling in Pittsburgh. And at first, for a whole year,
Speaker 1: we were like, oh, lev Bell is a diva, Lev
Speaker 1: Bell is a diva, you know all that stuff. And
Speaker 1: now we're hearing about Antonio Brown, uh, you know, wants
Speaker 1: to be traded and he's going to be you know,
Speaker 1: the combine. I think there's three teams that have apparently
Speaker 1: showed interest already. We'll talk about where I think he's
Speaker 1: going to go. Um Strong style is on the right track. Um,
Speaker 1: but I think it's unspoken. I think Antonio Brown probably
Speaker 1: had a point when he said that Big Ben has
Speaker 1: an owner's mentality, right, And I think he has a
Speaker 1: point because we've heard big Ben talk smack about Antonio
Speaker 1: Brown running routes. We've heard big Ben talking smack about
Speaker 1: James Washington in the game and his routes. It was
Speaker 1: a rookie wide receiver, second year wide, rookie wide receiver.
Speaker 1: There's a lot of people it sounds to me, and
Speaker 1: I'll making rain. We had one of the Pittsburgh beat
Speaker 1: guys up and saying, like, you know, it's still cloudy.
Speaker 1: A lot of people don't think Ben has anything to
Speaker 1: do with it. I got other people think Mike Tomlin
Speaker 1: has lost control of the narrative, has lost the locker room.
Speaker 1: If they're allowed to keep talking like this, I think
Speaker 1: big Ben is the issue. I think big Ben is
Speaker 1: rubbing people the wrong way. Everybody acknowledges that he's a
Speaker 1: Hall of Fame quarterback and so he gets a leash.
Speaker 1: But for the GM to come out and say that
Speaker 1: he's allowed to publicly criticize other players, and all the
Speaker 1: other players on the team kids and big Ben the
Speaker 1: only leader, I think that's a little bit ridiculous. I
Speaker 1: think they all know that there's multiple leaders on that team.
Speaker 1: You're telling me a guy on defense like Cam Heyward.
Speaker 1: You're telling me a guy in the offensive line like Bouncy.
Speaker 1: You're telling me an army event like Villanueva should be
Speaker 1: called a kid by the GM. I think that was
Speaker 1: a problem, and I think that we're gonna find out
Speaker 1: in the future that there is some stuff there that
Speaker 1: Big Bun is rubbing people the wrong way. No wonder
Speaker 1: a b wants to maybe get out of there, Okay,
Speaker 1: but they are casting their a lot with Big Ben
Speaker 1: in the last oh I don't know too maybe three
Speaker 1: productive years left of his career. And don't get me wrong,
Speaker 1: they're set up still. Okay. James Conner showed himself to
Speaker 1: be a pro bowler. James Connor was one of the
Speaker 1: top all. He's an RB one and he will be
Speaker 1: an RB one next year. I haven't done all my
Speaker 1: running back ranks yet, but I consider him probably to
Speaker 1: be about running back seven maybe overall. Okay, he'll be
Speaker 1: a first round pick. Juju Smith Schuster will be one
Speaker 1: of the top seven wide receivers, I think, especially if
Speaker 1: there's no Antonio Brown there and he's the last man left,
Speaker 1: you know, kind of like y'all calling me over here.
Speaker 1: Jeremy mcmanon, though you can't want you can't want Leve
Speaker 1: Bell and Antonio Brown to go to Houston. I know
Speaker 1: strong Style said Houston, but you can't just can't all
Speaker 1: go to Houston. That would be a little too much.
Speaker 1: Jeremy man saying A B and Nuke Opkins that would
Speaker 1: be nice, like, but I don't think they can get
Speaker 1: both of them. Um. So, I think Big Ben is
Speaker 1: something of an issue, and I think we're gonna find
Speaker 1: that out. But let's go on to A B and
Speaker 1: left Bell and see where we think they're gonna go.
Speaker 1: Here's a very big difference. I think people need to
Speaker 1: make this clear. And by the way, again, if you
Speaker 1: want a hollow at your boy to s been in statistation,
Speaker 1: phone lines are opening. The number to call this three
Speaker 1: four seven seven six seven six six one four is
Speaker 1: real deal status over beat cipher. Stay with me, you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. Back from a little while, we
Speaker 1: got some of those like buttons up. Let's get a
Speaker 1: little bit more. Um yeah, Big and Chef, it's been
Speaker 1: a while. It's been a while it's been probably like
Speaker 1: uh a couple of weeks. I'm with you on that Rosen.
Speaker 1: The uh, the Giants maybe a place for Rosen. I
Speaker 1: think Denver maybe a place for Rosen. I think Miami
Speaker 1: may be a place for Rosen as well. I will
Speaker 1: say this again, Cliff Kingsbury, the new Cardinals head coach,
Speaker 1: loves him some Kyler Murray there down on Rosen. I'm
Speaker 1: telling you though, Rosen would be like Pasted and Lynch
Speaker 1: two point oh for the Broncos. You know, Lay would
Speaker 1: be like, oh yeah, this's a big guy, can stand
Speaker 1: and deliver from the pocket. I I really think that's
Speaker 1: an interesting spot to watch. Okay, and have big Joe Flacco,
Speaker 1: who they just traded for, who's another big statue in
Speaker 1: the pocket, be the new mentor to uh Rosen in Denver. Okay,
Speaker 1: I think it's interesting. Um, too early to call speeds. Nah, Nah,
Speaker 1: you can call speeds whenever you want, Bro, you can
Speaker 1: call speeds whenever you want. Already gave you the number,
Speaker 1: all right, But um, I think that is one move. Right.
Speaker 1: But let's go into the Pittsburgh. The very important difference
Speaker 1: between Antonio Brown and Levion Bell is that Levion Bell
Speaker 1: we now know as a free agent. Okay, he's gonna
Speaker 1: be able to sign wherever you want. Antonio Brown. The
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh Steelers have to like the trade offer they're getting back. Okay.
Speaker 1: That's like Anthony Davis can say whatever the hell he
Speaker 1: wants about leaving the Pelicans. The Pelicans have to like
Speaker 1: the trade offer they get back. Clearly they didn't like
Speaker 1: the trade offer they got from the Los Angeles Lakers,
Speaker 1: even when it involved draft picks and almost their entire team.
Speaker 1: So the Steelers control the narrative. I heard Drew Rosenhouse,
Speaker 1: who's the agent for a B saying, listen, he cannot go, um,
Speaker 1: go out there and look for a trade, all right, Um,
Speaker 1: the Steelers have to like the trade and Perry Gang
Speaker 1: saying only only he only calls once a season. I
Speaker 1: get it, save it up, save it up. Whenever you're ready.
Speaker 1: It's all good. That's all good, Perry. Whenever you're ready,
Speaker 1: I'll be here for you, Okay. Um. So what I
Speaker 1: would say is that's a very big difference. The Steelers
Speaker 1: have already come out and saying they're not trading Antonio
Speaker 1: Brown to the a f C North, So it won't
Speaker 1: be Cleveland, it won't be Baltimore, who, by the way,
Speaker 1: cut Michael Crabtree today in Baltimore, And it won't be Cincinnati.
Speaker 1: They also said they will not trade him to the
Speaker 1: New England Patriots. Why because they don't want to get
Speaker 1: the rich richer. I'm gonna tell you another thing, Um,
Speaker 1: who was it Jeremy Man saying a B and nuke.
Speaker 1: I don't think the Steelers would entertain a trade with
Speaker 1: any other a f C team kind of on the come,
Speaker 1: any other playoff kind of a f C team. I
Speaker 1: don't think the Houston Texans. I don't think the Kansas
Speaker 1: City Chiefs. I don't think the you know, the Indianapolis Colts.
Speaker 1: I don't think those are on the board for Antonio Brown. Okay,
Speaker 1: I think they're gonna look to trade them to the NFC.
Speaker 1: Strong Style said it before. There are two teams out
Speaker 1: there that I liked. One of them, Strong Style was
Speaker 1: on It is the San Francisco forty Niners. We have
Speaker 1: seen um Antonio Brown like in photoshop forty Niners jerseys.
Speaker 1: Remember San Francisco. They also have one of the top
Speaker 1: picks in the draft. They could move that pick for
Speaker 1: Antonio Brown. I think the Steelers would accept the top
Speaker 1: five or top seven pick for him if if they
Speaker 1: wanted to do that, And imagine that putting him in
Speaker 1: that offense, in that Shanahan offense. Remember with returning Jimmy Garoppolo. Okay,
Speaker 1: they want to recreate what they had in Atlanta with
Speaker 1: Jimmy Garoppolo starring the role of Matt Ryan, with Jerick
Speaker 1: McKinnon and Matt Brida starring the Tevin Coleman and Devonte
Speaker 1: Freeman rolls. And now what do they need? They need
Speaker 1: their Julio Jones. They need their big time wide out
Speaker 1: outside that. You know, Pierre Garson, Marquis Goodwin, Dante Pettis
Speaker 1: are not those guys. Antonio Brown could be that guy.
Speaker 1: The Niners are in the market, they have cap space,
Speaker 1: they have draft capital. I like it strong style. I
Speaker 1: think the San Francisco forty Niners deserve to be a
Speaker 1: favorite for the services of Antonio Brown because these Stealers
Speaker 1: are gonna want to get him far, far, far away
Speaker 1: from any kind of competition the Pittsburgh Stealers would be seeing.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you another team that I think is interesting, though,
Speaker 1: Green Bay Packers I think the Packers are interesting, and
Speaker 1: let me tell you why as I have a sip
Speaker 1: of my beer. I think the Packers are interesting for
Speaker 1: a number of reasons. We all know Aaron Rodgers is.
Speaker 1: You know, he's getting up there. You know he's what
Speaker 1: like thirty four maybe something like that. They're gonna want
Speaker 1: to give Aaron Rodgers a great shot. Imagine Davante Adams
Speaker 1: and Antonio Brown. My man over here, um, Jimmy mcmannon's
Speaker 1: talking about Antonio Brown and you know DeAndre Hopkins. Imagine
Speaker 1: them with Davante Adams, same kind of thing with a
Speaker 1: quarterback Aaron Rodgers. Here's the reason why I like that. Also,
Speaker 1: two things. One, the Packers have not one, but two
Speaker 1: first round draft picks, so that may be able to
Speaker 1: help get it done. You could offer a first round.
Speaker 1: There's still have a first round there. The other thing
Speaker 1: I think could be interesting the Steelers are looking to
Speaker 1: reload with young wide receivers ju Ju Smith, Schuster, James Washington.
Speaker 1: The Packers have a number of young wide receivers that
Speaker 1: we saw a start to take a step, Guys like
Speaker 1: Equlaminus st Brown, Marcus Valves, Scantling. Those would all be available,
Speaker 1: okay in a trade, and remember they have two first
Speaker 1: round picks, and I think the arring Listen, We've talked
Speaker 1: about guys like Aaron Jones and Jamal Williams, but as
Speaker 1: long as Aaron Rodgers is there, the Packers are going
Speaker 1: to be a passing offense. And if they had someone
Speaker 1: on the opposite side of Davante Adams, that could be
Speaker 1: beast mode. I believe the Green Bay Packers are the
Speaker 1: second team you need to consider. Okay, So I'm looking
Speaker 1: at San Francisco forty Niners, which you've looked at most
Speaker 1: most sports books and things like that. Um, they're actually
Speaker 1: the favorite, and the Green Bay Packers or something like
Speaker 1: the fifth choice or so. Theemes are thinking like Indianapolis
Speaker 1: the Jet stuff like that. But I think he's gonna
Speaker 1: be out of the a f C al right, I
Speaker 1: think he's gonna be out of the a f C altogether.
Speaker 1: The third team I would give you would be the
Speaker 1: Philadelphia Eagles. I think they could make a run. They
Speaker 1: could trade a guy like a Nelson Agalor and add
Speaker 1: to their weapon re remember the Eagles still in contention.
Speaker 1: That's an interesting thing to me. But my two teams
Speaker 1: are the San Francisco forty Niners and the Green Bay Packers.
Speaker 1: Um perrying asking how much longer does ab have on
Speaker 1: his contractor teams that trade from have at least two
Speaker 1: years of his services. I do think it's that much, yes,
Speaker 1: because he resigned the deal recently um with the Pittsburgh Steelers,
Speaker 1: and he was a good soldier. He shut the hell up.
Speaker 1: Remember they were comparing how he behaved with how Odell
Speaker 1: Beckham behaved looking for a resigning deal. So I think that, Um,
Speaker 1: I think that Rogers with ap like strong style is saying,
Speaker 1: and um, those are my two options, all right? Right now?
Speaker 1: Uh checking into the poll question again real quick. We
Speaker 1: still believe that the city of the team. When we
Speaker 1: come back. Here's what we're gonna do. Hey, jer T,
Speaker 1: thanks for following me. By the way. Just there, real
Speaker 1: deal status over beat cipher. You know what it is here.
Speaker 1: Let's get more likes there we come back. I talked
Speaker 1: Levy on Bell and then me and the Status over

Speaker 1: Brown has been victimized, even though they sheltered you after
Speaker 1: you threatened to break the job of somebody for writing
Speaker 1: about even though they covered up you thrown a couch
Speaker 1: off a balcony. Ben Roethlisberger victimized Antonio Brown by paragoning
Speaker 1: more than anyone has been targeted in the last like

Speaker 1: don't get it twisted. How was the cruise? Says Dane.
Speaker 1: We're gonna talk about that, Perry ing asking me about
Speaker 1: the cruise, and that's what we're gonna get into. I
Speaker 1: want to ask you guys first though, Daniel Otto, are
Speaker 1: you with me? I'm here. Here's what I'm gonna do.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna bounce two stories off you real quick, and
Speaker 1: then I want to get the chat room go and
Speaker 1: seeing what if we talk about that and then Perry,
Speaker 1: I will tell you a little bit about the cruise,
Speaker 1: and I will also um, you know, I'll tell you
Speaker 1: also a little bit about um left bell. We'll get
Speaker 1: into the left bell talk as well. But Danny, check
Speaker 1: this out. First of all, did you know, because you're
Speaker 1: you you talk about like, uh, you know, video games
Speaker 1: and stuff like that on on pop it off, did
Speaker 1: you know that Fortnite is apparently not being used for
Speaker 1: money laundering. I didn't know this until you brought it
Speaker 1: up today. So apparently people are like spending using like
Speaker 1: stolen credit cards or somehow fake money to buy v Bucks,
Speaker 1: which you shared with me, was apparently like money that
Speaker 1: you can use in these video game systems, and then
Speaker 1: they're taking that and they're selling it on the black
Speaker 1: market for like real money. So they're using this, like,
Speaker 1: you know, the game currency as like the place you
Speaker 1: know that you do the money laundering, you know money.
Speaker 1: Most people do money laundering through shell companies and stuff
Speaker 1: that people and the kids out there these days, the
Speaker 1: millennials out there are now money laundering through video games
Speaker 1: and xboxes and Fortnite credits or cash. How does that sound, Danny,
Speaker 1: It sounds crazy to me. It makes sense to me.
Speaker 1: I talk to me about this. I need your help.
Speaker 1: I was selling you, like even making it simpler than that,
Speaker 1: Like you can buy Microsoft points, which are the online
Speaker 1: currency just for Xbox in like grocery stores, in convenient store,
Speaker 1: you get to seven eleven into it. So if you
Speaker 1: had counterfeit money or stolen credit card or stole in
Speaker 1: debit card, you can go into seven eleven and by
Speaker 1: the entire pack of all the cards right there, and
Speaker 1: then it's it's legal currency. And then it's I mean
Speaker 1: legal currency. It's only currency for people who like to
Speaker 1: play Fortnite. Danny, Well, if I have that card, that like,
Speaker 1: let's let's keep it with the the Microsoft Points. If
Speaker 1: I have that Microsoft Point card, I can put that
Speaker 1: up an eBay anywhere and get real goods and services
Speaker 1: for it. Maybe like Robert Kraft, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: Maybe I can go to a day spa with my
Speaker 1: Fortnite bucks and be like, hey, can I get a
Speaker 1: you know, a Swedish a Swedish deep tissue for an hour?
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, Like, I know, I got
Speaker 1: all this Fortnite cash. You know what do you think
Speaker 1: you think that will work? Because like, if it's like
Speaker 1: the Orchid, isn't it supposed to be like you know,
Speaker 1: Asians maybe they know about Fortnite. No, I think am
Speaker 1: I being like crazy? It's sweeping prejudice in generalistic If
Speaker 1: you can get it to bitcoin, then I think you can. Okay,
Speaker 1: So that story one. I thought that was pretty interesting,
Speaker 1: right story to check this out. Mississippi State versus Georgia
Speaker 1: last week, Danny college basketball. Okay, by the way, Danny,
Speaker 1: it is the Mississippi State Bulldogs against the Georgia Bulldogs. Okay,
Speaker 1: they're both bulldogs. Got it? I got I'm confused, but
Speaker 1: I got it. They're both just ball bullog and like
Speaker 1: you know, Villanova and Kentucky are both wild cats. You know,
Speaker 1: stuff like that. We need different it happens. Well, diversity
Speaker 1: of mascots. That's another topic for um. So this game
Speaker 1: was half it was half a second left. Okay, it
Speaker 1: was half a second left. The game was tied, sixty seven,
Speaker 1: sixty seven, Okay. There was a dead ball, and one
Speaker 1: of the fans threw a stuffed animal onto the onto
Speaker 1: the court. It was a stuffed bulldog. Danny, stuff bulldog
Speaker 1: onto the core, onto the court, and guess what happens.
Speaker 1: Guess what happens, um, Because it was at Georgia. Georgia
Speaker 1: got assessed a technical foul with half a second left
Speaker 1: to go in a tie game, and then the Mississippi
Speaker 1: State guy hits the technical free throw with like point
Speaker 1: five seconds left. Mississippi State wins the game sixty seven. Now,
Speaker 1: remember when I told you that it was Mississippi State
Speaker 1: Bulldogs against the Georgia Bulldogs. Danny, how the hell do
Speaker 1: we know who threw that bulldog onto the onto the court?
Speaker 1: How can you? But it was a Georgia home team.
Speaker 1: George was a home team, so they were kind of
Speaker 1: like assessed it because of ruly fan behavior. But what
Speaker 1: happens if it was it could have been a Mississippi
Speaker 1: State guy who threw a bulldog onto the court. You
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. Yeah, it's messed up. That's messed up.
Speaker 1: Imagine if you were betting this game and all of
Speaker 1: a sudden, a stuffed bulldog was what gave you a
Speaker 1: hashtag torn ticket. You know what I'm saying, That would
Speaker 1: be pretty ft up, like a hashtag game of inches, right,
Speaker 1: Like they say you were betting on this, or let's
Speaker 1: say you were betting on it and you were the
Speaker 1: person who threw the stuffed bulldog. Oh, but that's what
Speaker 1: I want to know, Danny. Did they know in advance
Speaker 1: that like that would cause a technical foul? I think,
Speaker 1: you know, I think it's a pretty fair bet if
Speaker 1: you throw something onto the you know, you know, that's
Speaker 1: a tried and true kind of ruled, Danny. Have you
Speaker 1: ever thrown things onto a court and not hadn't been
Speaker 1: a problem. I haven't thrown anything on what I'm just saying, like,
Speaker 1: it's usually a problem, Danny, I don't know it. Of
Speaker 1: course they do know that's what they do. They blame
Speaker 1: the home team because they believe that they the home
Speaker 1: team to be able to, like, you know, control the environment,
Speaker 1: especially for the visiting team. I mean, this was a
Speaker 1: stuffed animal for God's sex, but you know it could
Speaker 1: be um back in my day, get off my lawn action.
Speaker 1: Back in my day, people in the right field bleachers
Speaker 1: in Yankee Stadium, you used to throw batteries at the
Speaker 1: right fielder. Like that's not cool, you know what I mean? Yeah,
Speaker 1: so so I want to ask you, Danny. And then
Speaker 1: the statute of beat Cipher, which is crazier though that
Speaker 1: kids are money laundering through Fortnite, or that a stuffed
Speaker 1: animal projectile cost uh the Georgia Bulldogs a college college
Speaker 1: basketball game. I mean just me because the the online currency, uh,
Speaker 1: it seems it seems like that's just where the future
Speaker 1: is headed, where cryptocurrency is going to be the way
Speaker 1: the money launder and stuff. That just seems normal to me.
Speaker 1: The the bulldog, the the bulldog stuffed animal thing seems
Speaker 1: the most craziest it is it is. And you know,
Speaker 1: I like how strong style saying win your leagues and
Speaker 1: win those v bucks. I like that. I like that. Um,
Speaker 1: I'm telling you, perrying, I'm trying to. I'm trying to.
Speaker 1: I'm trying to, you know, probing journalism over here. That
Speaker 1: is the real question. George, You're gonna invade the next
Speaker 1: game and throw hundreds of bulldogs onto the court? I
Speaker 1: like that. Better not happening, March madness, says Jemmy Man.
Speaker 1: But then yo, Mendel Bruce saying, nobody cares about your
Speaker 1: wagers except other gamblers. I'm not talking about it from
Speaker 1: the wagering point of view necessarily, Mendel Bruce. I'm saying,
Speaker 1: it's just a crazy story. I just think it's wild
Speaker 1: that it sort of happened. But I'm glad that you
Speaker 1: guys are out there. Yeah, V Bucks for the happy
Speaker 1: endings is loco, Jeremy. I'm telling you, I'm sure that
Speaker 1: that could be. Do that. You know, I'll venmo you,
Speaker 1: You'll hit you up with this outfit in Fortnite. I'm
Speaker 1: sure that's out there these days, especially out there in
Speaker 1: the Far East. You know what I'm saying, the Orchid
Speaker 1: day Spot, who knows, who knows what's going on. But
Speaker 1: let's get back to Levyan Bell. I want you out.
Speaker 1: You can talk about that. Yeah, strong style, v Bucks
Speaker 1: at the gentleman's establishment. I like that. I like that.
Speaker 1: Imagine just venmoing a dancer, you know, being like, yeah,
Speaker 1: yeah I got you, I got you. What your hand on? My?
Speaker 1: What's your hand on? No doubt? I got you. I'll
Speaker 1: just send you. Um. It's so crazy, man, the currency
Speaker 1: out there these days. You know, I like to be
Speaker 1: you know, like to hold hold my money, Danny, you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. But he's Venmo and V Box.
Speaker 1: It's all very very crazy. Put in any event, Bell, Okay,
Speaker 1: Levion Bell is a free agent though, Okay, so he
Speaker 1: can go anywhere if he wanted to. He can really
Speaker 1: stick to the Steelers. He can go to the Baltimore
Speaker 1: Ravens if he wanted to. I don't think he's going to.
Speaker 1: He can go to New England Patriots if he wanted to.
Speaker 1: I don't think he's going to. He's what I think
Speaker 1: Levian Bell wants. I think Levian Bell, because remember Antonio
Speaker 1: Brown can't choose, right if they want to send him
Speaker 1: to a team that's like a three win team, they
Speaker 1: could do that if they get the best deal. Levian
Speaker 1: Bell and going into age twenty nine or thirty. He
Speaker 1: knows this is his last shot. He's gonna want a
Speaker 1: team that is primed to contend right now. That's category one,
Speaker 1: Category two. He's gonna want a quarterback that is in
Speaker 1: his prime. He is leaving the Steelers, who are kind
Speaker 1: of a contending team, but he sees the end of
Speaker 1: the horizon for Big Ben. So to me, he's gonna
Speaker 1: want a team that is a contender right now and
Speaker 1: has a quarterback in their prying okay, and he's gonna
Speaker 1: want a team that has some cage to spend. I
Speaker 1: know everyone's talking about the New York Jets. All left
Speaker 1: Bell is gonna go to the Jets. I don't think
Speaker 1: the Jets qualify in that criteria. They are not a
Speaker 1: win now team. And that's why as a Jets fan,
Speaker 1: I don't even want Levi on Bell. I want them
Speaker 1: to build from within and then when they're ready for
Speaker 1: a skill position player like a lev Bell or an
Speaker 1: Antonio Brown to really put them over the top, that's
Speaker 1: when they need to do it. I have three teams, however,
Speaker 1: who I think can be that team, and you know
Speaker 1: we're here, and also people are talking about all the
Speaker 1: San Francisco forty niners for them. For lev I don't
Speaker 1: think that's the case. I think they like Jerick McKinnon
Speaker 1: and Matt Breda. I don't think they want to spend
Speaker 1: their money on more in that running back room. Okay,
Speaker 1: you're right, Mendel Bruce. There is no income tax in Texas.
Speaker 1: Jeremy McMahon, h Town is an interesting option. Perrying, saying
Speaker 1: Levian Bell to the Raiders, do you really think the
Speaker 1: Raiders are a team that is going to be a
Speaker 1: contender in the next three years. I don't think so.
Speaker 1: I don't think he wants to go there. The Raiders
Speaker 1: may want lev Bell, but I don't think lev Bell
Speaker 1: would want the Raiders and to be part of that
Speaker 1: traveling circus, which it will be this year. I don't
Speaker 1: think he wants that. I don't think it's San Francisco.
Speaker 1: I've heard talk of Green Bay. I don't think it's that.
Speaker 1: I here are three teams, and I don't want the
Speaker 1: New York Jets. There are three teams. It could be, yeah, Perry,
Speaker 1: I don't know what the Raiders are either. You know,
Speaker 1: um one of them is Jeremy McMahon's point to Houston, Texans.
Speaker 1: Houston Texans contending team check quarterback in or entering their
Speaker 1: prime in Deshaun Watson check wouldn't be the only guy
Speaker 1: in that offense. Imagine pairing him with your boy New
Speaker 1: Hopkins check. All right, here's and Lamar Miller their current
Speaker 1: running back. Then I committed to Lamar Miller, as you know,
Speaker 1: shout out to my man. The fantasy executives say it
Speaker 1: with me. Now, if you know what I'm about to
Speaker 1: say in the chat room, if we're talking about Lamar Miller,
Speaker 1: you know what it is. Lamar Miller sucks big out Dilley.
Speaker 1: Dilley with fantasy executive. Um, so that's possible. Okay, that's possible.
Speaker 1: The reason I think that leve Bell that's my third
Speaker 1: choice Stough for leve Bell, is because of that offensive line.
Speaker 1: We've talked about that offensive line as it related to
Speaker 1: keeping Shawn Watson healthy all season long. To do that
Speaker 1: to collapse long, they were getting him in trouble. Okay.
Speaker 1: I don't think that offensive line is far worse than
Speaker 1: what we see in Pittsburgh, and that I think will
Speaker 1: change leave Bells equation. All right, that's what I think. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know what it is? Strong style one time for
Speaker 1: the man, all right, Lamar Miller sucks, all right, But
Speaker 1: I think that's an option because yo, you try to
Speaker 1: recreate the triplet's think about DeShawn Watson, Levy On Bell
Speaker 1: and DeAndre Hopkins. Who and what is an imminently winnable
Speaker 1: um A f C South Hello, Hello everybody over there,
Speaker 1: people waving at me and stats over beat cipher right,
Speaker 1: that my number three option, my number two option. Someone
Speaker 1: said it over here. Also, imagine Lev Bell with the
Speaker 1: Kansas City Chief contending team check quarterback in our entering
Speaker 1: his prime check. They had a vacancy all of a
Speaker 1: sudden at the running back position after Kareem Hunt. You
Speaker 1: know it was caught on film last year. And yes
Speaker 1: they extended Damien Williams, but he's not a workload back.
Speaker 1: We saw that over time, right. Can you imagine how
Speaker 1: scary that offense would be? Lev bella in Kansas City
Speaker 1: with Patti that'sked my home, Joe and Tyreek Hill. Imagine
Speaker 1: the formations, Imagine the wildcats, Imagine the end of rounds.
Speaker 1: Imagine the crazy two way screens they could go. It
Speaker 1: would be scary, But I don't know if they have
Speaker 1: the money to make it happen. I don't know if
Speaker 1: they have the money to make it happen. You know him,
Speaker 1: she and yeah, Perry and you know him, she and
Speaker 1: it would be very very interesting. I don't know if
Speaker 1: they have the money to make it happen. So I
Speaker 1: go to the team where I do think ultimately Levian
Speaker 1: Bell will sign in this offseason. They have a team
Speaker 1: that is contending. This is a team that made the
Speaker 1: playoffs this year. They have a quarterback who is in
Speaker 1: his prime check. They also have a offensive line that
Speaker 1: was severely overhauled and went from being one of the
Speaker 1: worst in the league to one of the better ones
Speaker 1: in the league. Mendel Bruce, I don't I disagree with you.
Speaker 1: I do believe it is the Indianapolis Colts. You say
Speaker 1: they don't need him. I don't know Marlon Mack, not
Speaker 1: hem Heinz. You think any of these guys are are
Speaker 1: are are um are difference makers? Marlon Mack had a
Speaker 1: nice little run. But if you can get left Bell,
Speaker 1: you do it, okay in my opinion. Well, did you
Speaker 1: say they won't pay him? The Indianapolis Colts have a
Speaker 1: hundred and five million dollars Mendel Bruce and everybody else
Speaker 1: a hundred and five million dollars in cap space the NFL,
Speaker 1: unlike other leagues, there is a salary floor they have
Speaker 1: to spend. They're gonna have to spend on the on
Speaker 1: the defensive side, I think they're gonna go out and
Speaker 1: grab Landing Collins, the safety from the New York Giants,
Speaker 1: who's packed up his locker and has told equipment managers
Speaker 1: and stuff. I'm out. I think that's gonna be their
Speaker 1: piece on defense. And I do think that leve Bell
Speaker 1: could be there on offense. Remember imagine t Y Hilton,
Speaker 1: Andrew Luck and leve Bell. I think that is ultimately
Speaker 1: where he may go. Jeremy McMahon says, Mac is done.
Speaker 1: I think that's the case as well. So I think
Speaker 1: my targets for lev Bell are the Indianapolis Colts, the
Speaker 1: Kansas City Chiefs, and the Houston Texans. Okay, could Green
Speaker 1: Bay get involved? Maybe? Could I've heard Philly. Maybe Both
Speaker 1: these guys, Antonio Brown and leave Bell went to college
Speaker 1: in the state of Michigan. Leve Bell with Michigan State,
Speaker 1: Antonio Brown with I believe Central Michigan. Right, the Lions
Speaker 1: are a team in flux. Maybe looking to get rid
Speaker 1: of Matt Stafford and his contract. You never know, I
Speaker 1: like carry on Johnson there as well. Right, So those
Speaker 1: are those are those are some teams that I like.
Speaker 1: All right, Um, Danny, these guys wanted to hear about
Speaker 1: the cruise. These guys wanted to hear about the cruise,
Speaker 1: and I got about um you know of I got Danny,
Speaker 1: got like three or four minutes left. That right, three minutes,
Speaker 1: I got three minutes left. I can tell you something.
Speaker 1: I've heard pros and cons about going on cruises. But
Speaker 1: I had a great time. I had a great time.
Speaker 1: I ziplined I a t V. I smirkled off a
Speaker 1: catam iran. I went cave tubing, you know. And there
Speaker 1: was a lot of good stuff on the boat. I
Speaker 1: paid for the express package, the high end package. Okay,
Speaker 1: so I had all the good restaurants. I wasn't eating
Speaker 1: the cafeteria food the entire time. A lot of good
Speaker 1: stuff on the boat. I want a medal for being
Speaker 1: the second best corn hole or bag old player on
Speaker 1: the boat. It was everything from belly flop contest to
Speaker 1: dance contest to scavenger hunts. When I was throwing out,
Speaker 1: I was getting bras from people and running up on stage.
Speaker 1: It was good. It was a lot of fun. But Danny,
Speaker 1: here's my question for you. Um, I was talking to
Speaker 1: people like in the countries I was in the Islands.
Speaker 1: I was in on on Honduras, and on Belize and
Speaker 1: in Cosmel in Mexico, and they're trying to sell trinkets,
Speaker 1: you know, up and down the beach. You know how
Speaker 1: it is, Danny, have been trying to sell you stuff.
Speaker 1: I brought the pen. McMahon, Hey, Jeremy McMahon. I I
Speaker 1: bought the pen, you know what I'm saying. So I
Speaker 1: didn't have to worry about purchasing anything on any of
Speaker 1: these islands. You know. I was just good. I was good,
Speaker 1: you know. Um, Danny, they tried to sell me all
Speaker 1: sorts of trink its, masks and and Little Day of
Speaker 1: the Dead skulls and stuff with you know, American teams.
Speaker 1: You know, Danny, what do you think was the most
Speaker 1: popular team in the islands to sell to people. I'll
Speaker 1: give you. I'll give you a couple of options. Um,
Speaker 1: the New York Yankees, Um, could it be the New
Speaker 1: England Patriots, or how about them Cowboys, the Pittsburgh Steelers
Speaker 1: travel well, maybe the Lakers, maybe the Golden State Warriors.
Speaker 1: Who do you think Danny was, like the biggest team
Speaker 1: out there? You know it is strong Style. I wouldn't
Speaker 1: that cash, baby, I wouldn't that cash. That's what I said.
Speaker 1: I tell y'all every year. Last year, after winning my
Speaker 1: leagues and winning that cash, I'll saw me to take
Speaker 1: a vacation to Asia. I was in Thailand and Cambodia.
Speaker 1: I sent you all pictures this year with that cash,
Speaker 1: those v bucks. You know what I'm saying. I went
Speaker 1: on a cruise. Maybe that's what happens when you're spitting statistician.
Speaker 1: You take that cash that's real, and you spend it
Speaker 1: and you treat yourself. Um, but what do you think
Speaker 1: Strong Style says the Warriors. Jared says the Cowboys. Mendel
Speaker 1: Bruce says the Raiders. Um, what do you think Danny
Speaker 1: was the team that they were saying The Island Men
Speaker 1: was saying they sell the most shirts, the most wooden masks,
Speaker 1: the most trinkets out there. What do you think Danny?
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't want to say it, but I'm
Speaker 1: gonna Patriots was the Patriots? Yeah? Guess what it was
Speaker 1: the mother f in New England Patriots Danny. Oh my god.
Speaker 1: They wanted to sell They wanted to sell Patriots gear
Speaker 1: to me left and right. And now we told him
Speaker 1: I'm from New York and they were like, oh, so
Speaker 1: you like the Patriots. They just want I was like, bro, y'all,
Speaker 1: don't know what you're talking about. You're right, Mendel Bruce,
Speaker 1: I would excuse me, Uh, Perry ng Space Jam two
Speaker 1: is gonna be interesting. I'm sure they're gonna talk about
Speaker 1: that on Popping Off with the population. Keep an eye
Speaker 1: out for that. The hundredth episode of Popping Off coming
Speaker 1: out soon. And by the way, guys, next week, episode
