I feel like I feel like we've 0:00:35.080 --> 0:00:39.120 recorded a lot in twenty seventeen in person. That's true, 0:00:39.200 --> 0:00:40.080 We're not used to this. 0:00:40.240 --> 0:00:42.240 No, we've recorded a good amount of person. This is 0:00:42.280 --> 0:00:44.720 the first time we're recording in this specific place. We 0:00:44.800 --> 0:00:49.000 are in the Estimanation lounge within the new Vox Media 0:00:49.040 --> 0:00:51.680 office space, so this is the first time we've recorded here. 0:00:52.360 --> 0:00:55.320 I'm sitting on a very comfortable suede couch. You're in 0:00:55.360 --> 0:00:56.240 a large chair. 0:00:56.360 --> 0:00:58.680 This is the most comfortable I've ever been podcasting. 0:00:58.680 --> 0:00:59.240 Really, is that? 0:00:59.320 --> 0:00:59.960 And true story? 0:01:00.480 --> 0:01:00.720 Yeah? 0:01:00.800 --> 0:01:04.920 Usually when I podcast because I'm cheap, the spare bedroom 0:01:04.920 --> 0:01:07.440 in which I have all my gear I am sitting 0:01:07.520 --> 0:01:12.000 on solid wife's old keyboard stool. It does not have 0:01:12.040 --> 0:01:15.240 a bad You gotta be more comfortable. Horrible ergonomics. What 0:01:15.240 --> 0:01:17.319 are you doing with your life? So I'm in a chair, 0:01:17.440 --> 0:01:18.600 it's got a back ki. 0:01:18.720 --> 0:01:19.959 You are well in, You're dirty. 0:01:20.040 --> 0:01:21.080 The other half lived in. 0:01:21.400 --> 0:01:23.840 Oh my god, I'm living great here right now. I'm 0:01:23.920 --> 0:01:27.480 life is good. So you were in New York. We 0:01:27.480 --> 0:01:30.880 were taking care of some business. But we are doing 0:01:30.920 --> 0:01:33.920 We have a themed episode right now. Yes, we are 0:01:34.160 --> 0:01:36.720 going to finally, I mean, it's not the Verbiy's, although 0:01:36.760 --> 0:01:38.520 I think we will get to the Verbies sooner than 0:01:38.560 --> 0:01:39.440 we did last year. 0:01:39.360 --> 0:01:41.399 At some point. Yeah, last year it was like May. 0:01:41.480 --> 0:01:43.280 It was it was deep into we push it off 0:01:43.360 --> 0:01:46.319 until May. We're yeah, that's not good. So we're gonna 0:01:46.319 --> 0:01:48.160 we're gonna try and get that out of the way. 0:01:47.960 --> 0:01:50.320 So sure, But what we're gonna do right now, and 0:01:50.360 --> 0:01:52.720 we've talked about doing this, we're gonna score the Fantasy 0:01:52.760 --> 0:01:55.960 Things draft that we had. Uh it was last summer, 0:01:56.040 --> 0:02:00.720 last July, I believe. Yeah, put together we eat drafted 0:02:00.960 --> 0:02:03.840 what like ten different items something around. 0:02:03.600 --> 0:02:06.240 The sheet in front of us here about ten issue. 0:02:06.120 --> 0:02:08.000 Yeah, ten or eleven items each and we're going to 0:02:08.040 --> 0:02:10.000 score it out and figure out on a scale from 0:02:10.040 --> 0:02:13.400 one to five for each item, how strong each of 0:02:13.440 --> 0:02:16.880 these items performed for us or not so strong. So 0:02:17.000 --> 0:02:20.440 we're going to score that and we're going to figure 0:02:20.440 --> 0:02:21.639 out we're just going to get to the bottom of 0:02:21.680 --> 0:02:26.320 who is more accurate as for predicting college football things. 0:02:26.520 --> 0:02:30.360 That's right, that's right. So the genesis of the fantasy things. 0:02:30.360 --> 0:02:32.359 If you're picking it up, it's the off season. I 0:02:33.080 --> 0:02:35.040 want to listen to college football, but I don't know 0:02:35.080 --> 0:02:37.040 where I could listen to college but you just found 0:02:37.120 --> 0:02:37.480 the show. 0:02:37.720 --> 0:02:37.919 Yep. 0:02:38.360 --> 0:02:40.600 This was something basically that you and I did to 0:02:40.680 --> 0:02:43.480 kill time, yes, in the office, and because the people 0:02:43.480 --> 0:02:45.639 demand it, and because the people demand it of course now, 0:02:45.680 --> 0:02:47.200 but we did. This is the second year that we 0:02:47.280 --> 0:02:52.640 did it. And instead of drafting college football players like 0:02:52.720 --> 0:02:56.000 a fantasy team, I'm uncomfortable with that, you know, instead 0:02:56.040 --> 0:02:58.880 of doing something like that, we decided how about we 0:02:58.880 --> 0:03:01.880 put our own little spin on it. Draft storylines. Yes, right, 0:03:01.960 --> 0:03:05.280 so again the one I'll harken back narratives, as our 0:03:05.280 --> 0:03:08.359 friends in Long Island would tell you, Yeah, thank you, narratives. 0:03:08.400 --> 0:03:12.360 But to harken back to year one of fantasy things, 0:03:12.400 --> 0:03:15.520 I drafted Mike Gundy's hairline, yes, which at the time 0:03:15.880 --> 0:03:17.240 was a horrible selection. 0:03:17.720 --> 0:03:18.560 It was not great. 0:03:18.639 --> 0:03:22.200 If I had kept it through to this year, it 0:03:22.240 --> 0:03:24.800 would have been like Ladanian Tomlinson, it would have been 0:03:25.240 --> 0:03:28.320 to the point where it seemed weird that you were 0:03:28.360 --> 0:03:31.120 able to predict Mike Gundy's hair becoming a storyline. And 0:03:31.120 --> 0:03:33.360 I have this problem. Do you play fantasy sports anymore? 0:03:33.400 --> 0:03:33.920 Not anymore? 0:03:33.960 --> 0:03:36.320 No, I have this problem with fantasy sports. Yeah. I 0:03:36.360 --> 0:03:38.800 do it in football. I do it in baseball. I'm 0:03:38.840 --> 0:03:40.840 all in on the prospects. But like a year or 0:03:40.920 --> 0:03:44.640 two early. Okay, all right, so perhaps some of the 0:03:44.680 --> 0:03:47.440 ones that I drafted here, see I'm always looking pop 0:03:47.440 --> 0:03:48.440 in twenty seventeen. 0:03:48.880 --> 0:03:51.120 My fantasy strategy used to be, I don't do it anymore. 0:03:51.160 --> 0:03:52.720 I want to find that Phil Rivers. I want to 0:03:52.720 --> 0:03:55.560 find that Paul Konerko, so like I would have drafted 0:03:55.600 --> 0:03:58.160 something with like Howard Stellenberger this year, that he would 0:03:58.200 --> 0:03:59.720 have come out, come back and made some sort of 0:03:59.760 --> 0:04:05.520 com Yeah. This was when you look at our teams. 0:04:05.560 --> 0:04:08.880 There's not a lot of great pics that we made, 0:04:09.000 --> 0:04:12.840 but there's there's a lot of solid picks here, so 0:04:12.880 --> 0:04:16.240 we we're going to score this. We are going to 0:04:16.480 --> 0:04:18.719 just catch up on life. I think afterwards we had 0:04:18.760 --> 0:04:20.359 it's been a while since we've talked talking. 0:04:20.839 --> 0:04:22.800 We haven't heard hide Door hair for you since you 0:04:22.839 --> 0:04:23.520 went to Mexico. 0:04:23.720 --> 0:04:26.719 It's sure. I was in Mexico City in Houston before that. 0:04:26.760 --> 0:04:27.200 What do we do? 0:04:27.279 --> 0:04:27.359 So? 0:04:27.360 --> 0:04:30.359 We aired Adam Amean, we did our live show together, 0:04:30.880 --> 0:04:32.080 did we record? 0:04:32.120 --> 0:04:33.640 What do we do between that? I don't even remember 0:04:33.640 --> 0:04:34.960 what was our last show? I don't remember what I 0:04:35.000 --> 0:04:37.440 had for breakfast day? Okay, just making we did our 0:04:37.520 --> 0:04:39.479 live show, we aired a show that we did with 0:04:39.520 --> 0:04:40.159 Adam Aman. 0:04:40.480 --> 0:04:41.400 What do we do after that? 0:04:43.160 --> 0:04:45.400 Signing Day? I forget? 0:04:45.480 --> 0:04:47.200 Yeah, well I was sick and in the middle of 0:04:47.240 --> 0:04:49.760 I'm still I'm perennially sick right now. I don't like 0:04:49.800 --> 0:04:51.520 this at all, But yeah, I did that the signing 0:04:51.600 --> 0:04:54.880 day show from the Houston Convention Center. So okay, I'm 0:04:54.880 --> 0:04:57.279 glad that we can just slow down, grade this out 0:04:57.480 --> 0:04:58.280 and just catch. 0:04:58.120 --> 0:04:59.360 Up the people demanded. 0:04:59.520 --> 0:04:59.839 Yeah. 0:05:00.200 --> 0:05:02.800 The other part of the Fantasy Things story that I 0:05:02.800 --> 0:05:06.719 did not tell was that we decided this year we 0:05:06.760 --> 0:05:08.640 were going to get serious about it. Absolutely because again 0:05:08.640 --> 0:05:10.039 we came up with this idea. We didn't know what 0:05:10.040 --> 0:05:11.720 it was going to be, very just trying to kill time. 0:05:12.440 --> 0:05:15.400 First year, we just figured out we'll keep track on it. 0:05:16.160 --> 0:05:19.680 Roughly speaking, I'm going to put any real tabulation behind it. 0:05:20.120 --> 0:05:23.320 This year, the people demanded a real scoring sheet, and 0:05:23.400 --> 0:05:25.920 we put one together. In fairness, I have a very 0:05:25.960 --> 0:05:30.000 sophisticated sheet here, and we kept sort of track of 0:05:30.040 --> 0:05:35.760 it through about half way ye season. It goes up 0:05:35.800 --> 0:05:41.360 to about halfway exactly, and then it trailed off and 0:05:41.839 --> 0:05:46.240 as conveniently enough, we were tied at nineteen nineteen. So 0:05:46.320 --> 0:05:49.320 now we're actually going to go fresh slate. Let's take 0:05:49.320 --> 0:05:50.640 a look at this and see what happened. 0:05:52.160 --> 0:05:53.400 Do you want to talk about news after? 0:05:54.320 --> 0:05:54.560 Sure? 0:05:54.680 --> 0:05:58.039 Yeah. I mean Alabama's had three offensive coordinators in like 0:05:58.080 --> 0:06:01.600 three weeks, so there's that. But yeah, let's do that. 0:06:01.640 --> 0:06:02.520 So let's begin. 0:06:02.839 --> 0:06:06.520 We got ground to cover. We each picked ten different narratives. 0:06:06.680 --> 0:06:10.760 If you will, I will start with mine. This is 0:06:10.800 --> 0:06:11.919 an order of. 0:06:11.800 --> 0:06:13.320 Do you want to go back and forth? We want 0:06:13.320 --> 0:06:14.240 to go all through yours. 0:06:14.360 --> 0:06:16.880 Let's go back and forth. Okay, First, my first one 0:06:16.960 --> 0:06:19.720 was Tom Herman coaching rumors. This is my first pick 0:06:19.839 --> 0:06:21.920 such a strong pick. So if we're grading on a 0:06:21.960 --> 0:06:24.040 scale of one through five. 0:06:23.960 --> 0:06:28.919 Yeah, five being inescapable. Right everywhere you turn in college football, 0:06:28.920 --> 0:06:31.960 this thing is there, one being complete non factor. 0:06:32.240 --> 0:06:33.520 So I'm going to go four. 0:06:33.880 --> 0:06:34.520 I think that's right. 0:06:34.720 --> 0:06:38.560 Tom Herman coaching rumors because it was not something you 0:06:38.560 --> 0:06:40.120 could ever escape. 0:06:40.080 --> 0:06:42.960 Right, Well, so LSU fires their coach early. So there's 0:06:42.960 --> 0:06:45.279 that Texas has the rumors all year long that actually 0:06:45.279 --> 0:06:48.440 comes to fruition. Oregon looks like they're on the hot 0:06:48.440 --> 0:06:50.960 seat all year long, and he has the connection to 0:06:51.000 --> 0:06:53.240 the West Coast and the offense that Oregon runs. So 0:06:53.279 --> 0:06:55.400 there were I think throughout the season it was pretty 0:06:55.400 --> 0:06:58.080 persistent that Tom Herman was most likely going to end 0:06:58.160 --> 0:06:58.880 up somewhere big. 0:06:59.240 --> 0:07:01.440 I reserve the right to go back and amend this 0:07:01.520 --> 0:07:03.480 to a five if we go the full way through 0:07:03.520 --> 0:07:05.240 and we decide that maybe it should be bumped up 0:07:05.240 --> 0:07:08.239 to a five. The reason I say four is because 0:07:08.240 --> 0:07:13.400 the rumors sort of ceased being rumors about midway through 0:07:13.400 --> 0:07:15.480 the season. It was apparent that he was either going 0:07:15.560 --> 0:07:18.200 to go to LSU or Texas or some other big name. 0:07:18.440 --> 0:07:20.560 Even early on when people were doubting Clay Helton and 0:07:20.600 --> 0:07:22.640 his future at USC when they when they were one 0:07:22.640 --> 0:07:24.240 and three, and everybody assumed that they were going to 0:07:24.280 --> 0:07:27.040 be a huge bus hers from the LA area. 0:07:27.360 --> 0:07:29.480 You knew he was going to go somewhere. There was 0:07:29.520 --> 0:07:30.440 no need for rumors. 0:07:30.480 --> 0:07:32.600 I think four is right because I think in the 0:07:32.880 --> 0:07:35.120 middle pocket of the season, with the loss to SMU, 0:07:35.480 --> 0:07:37.680 with the lost to Navy, I think his sort of 0:07:37.800 --> 0:07:40.360 Q rating took a hit, and I don't think it 0:07:40.400 --> 0:07:42.200 was as persistent. So I think four is fair. 0:07:42.280 --> 0:07:45.440 All right, So I'm gonna I actually, I'm gonna keep 0:07:45.440 --> 0:07:47.560 track of it right in our spreadsheet here, okay, as 0:07:47.680 --> 0:07:50.760 I have four a four in yep, all right, So 0:07:50.800 --> 0:07:52.840 that that is you. Mm hm. 0:07:53.200 --> 0:07:57.640 So I took the weekly College Football ranking show as 0:07:57.680 --> 0:07:59.000 being a discussion point. 0:07:59.080 --> 0:08:03.680 In escapable, unescapable for the second. 0:08:03.360 --> 0:08:04.640 Half five and six weeks. 0:08:04.720 --> 0:08:08.640 Yeah, definitely discussion point. Mm hmm. This was This was 0:08:08.720 --> 0:08:11.200 very much a Paul Canerico kind of pick. I think, 0:08:11.240 --> 0:08:12.280 so disserviceable. 0:08:12.360 --> 0:08:14.440 It was a well, it was a stronger year two 0:08:14.600 --> 0:08:18.920 because the discussions were more robust, I will say, because 0:08:18.960 --> 0:08:22.480 nobody quite understood what was happening with the logic involved, 0:08:23.200 --> 0:08:25.400 why why certain teams were as high as they were 0:08:25.480 --> 0:08:28.760 or not as high as they were. So I feel 0:08:28.760 --> 0:08:30.600 like this is in the three to four range. 0:08:30.720 --> 0:08:31.559 I would say three. 0:08:31.720 --> 0:08:32.840 Okay, I'll take the three. 0:08:33.120 --> 0:08:35.160 Three. Are we going just integers? Are we going to 0:08:35.240 --> 0:08:37.680 go decimals as well? No? 0:08:37.720 --> 0:08:40.199 I think we should just keep it into yeah, whole. 0:08:40.080 --> 0:08:42.280 Numbers, good and integer reference. Thank you? 0:08:42.360 --> 0:08:43.040 Y Yeah. 0:08:43.080 --> 0:08:45.520 So all right, I'm up four to three. Baby, why 0:08:45.559 --> 0:08:46.760 don't we bookend this crap? 0:08:46.920 --> 0:08:47.679 Yeah? 0:08:47.720 --> 0:08:50.520 Go ahead, you go again. Okay, that's a snake. Yeah, 0:08:50.520 --> 0:08:51.120 that's true. 0:08:51.280 --> 0:08:54.080 So my number two pick appears to be Michigan State disrespect. 0:08:55.040 --> 0:08:58.280 Yes, so this is going to be a spirited debate 0:08:58.320 --> 0:08:59.400 disc So here's the question. 0:08:59.440 --> 0:09:01.240 I think you're right, it is going to be a debate. 0:09:02.160 --> 0:09:05.160 What do we define as disrespect? Because yes, I can 0:09:05.200 --> 0:09:08.880 make the argument Illinois football disrespected Michigan State this year. 0:09:08.920 --> 0:09:10.760 I can make the argument that the entire Big Ten 0:09:10.840 --> 0:09:15.679 disrespected Michigan State and did not respect their previous results. 0:09:15.440 --> 0:09:17.319 In state, disrespected Michigan. 0:09:16.960 --> 0:09:22.839 Michigan State disrespected Michigan States. But I think I have 0:09:22.920 --> 0:09:24.480 to be if I'm going to be one of the 0:09:25.080 --> 0:09:28.720 pillars of the Fantasy Things draft and league. Down between 0:09:28.720 --> 0:09:31.120 the two of us, the founding Father. I think I 0:09:31.200 --> 0:09:33.480 have to go with the spirit of this pick and 0:09:33.520 --> 0:09:37.320 the spirit of Michigan State disrespect is Michigan State being 0:09:37.440 --> 0:09:42.679 good but not being acknowledged rightfully, so not getting their deal. 0:09:43.360 --> 0:09:48.400 Michigan State after beating Notre Dame, everybody figured it was 0:09:48.440 --> 0:09:53.520 good at the very least was good. But then they're 0:09:53.720 --> 0:09:58.880 just immediate downfall sort of ended the possibility of disrespecting 0:09:58.960 --> 0:10:00.720 how good Michigan State was. 0:10:00.960 --> 0:10:03.600 This was a Ryan Leaf caliber bust right here, right. 0:10:03.760 --> 0:10:05.440 But we made this. 0:10:05.920 --> 0:10:08.280 I made this pick in July, so I had all 0:10:08.320 --> 0:10:10.760 of July and August of listening to Michigan and Ohio 0:10:10.800 --> 0:10:14.120 State exclusively correct. Was there a team in the Big 0:10:14.160 --> 0:10:17.880 Ten that was probably disrespected like Michigan State had been disrespected? 0:10:18.080 --> 0:10:20.800 I would argue Penn State was that team. Nobody believed 0:10:20.800 --> 0:10:23.480 in Penn State until it was too late. They kept 0:10:23.520 --> 0:10:25.360 winning and ultimately they won the conference. 0:10:25.640 --> 0:10:30.559 Okay, so I believe I believe that Michigan State disrespect 0:10:30.640 --> 0:10:33.960 was handed to Penn State. I'm going to say Michigan 0:10:33.960 --> 0:10:36.320 State disrespect because of July and August and because of 0:10:36.320 --> 0:10:37.200 early on in the season. 0:10:37.800 --> 0:10:40.640 I will say two. Two feels about right. Okay, I'm 0:10:40.640 --> 0:10:43.840 looking at our score sheet here. Yeah, so keep in mind, 0:10:43.840 --> 0:10:46.640 this wasn't like a normal season. We did this what 0:10:46.720 --> 0:10:52.280 first week of July ish, from the eleventh of July, 0:10:52.480 --> 0:10:56.320 excuse me, through Christmas time is what I have on 0:10:56.360 --> 0:11:00.960 the sheet here. From July through the the third week 0:11:01.120 --> 0:11:06.280 of September, there were only three weeks where we did 0:11:06.280 --> 0:11:08.360 not tick a market award. 0:11:08.480 --> 0:11:09.640 Michigan State disrespect. 0:11:09.760 --> 0:11:13.160 Okay, so early early on it seemed as if you 0:11:13.200 --> 0:11:17.080 were gonna be really rollinated here, right, I would contend 0:11:17.240 --> 0:11:20.360 to my earlier point. Yeah, Michigan State disrespect could be 0:11:20.400 --> 0:11:21.920 a hell of a pick for this coming season. 0:11:22.200 --> 0:11:24.000 That's where, Yeah, because you built. 0:11:23.920 --> 0:11:25.400 In a year or two early, they might have had 0:11:25.440 --> 0:11:26.079 that off year. 0:11:26.320 --> 0:11:29.160 There's so much organic disrespect that's been built up with 0:11:29.280 --> 0:11:31.440 Michigan State. It's a really good year to get out. 0:11:31.480 --> 0:11:34.520 They started to and now they beat Furman and they 0:11:34.559 --> 0:11:39.440 beat Notre Dame and they're ranked and then they lose one, two, three, four, five, six, 0:11:39.559 --> 0:11:40.680 seven straight games. 0:11:40.840 --> 0:11:41.360 Wow. 0:11:42.240 --> 0:11:44.720 Do you know how many non Rutgers Big Ten wins 0:11:44.760 --> 0:11:47.120 they had this year? It would be zero point zero, 0:11:47.920 --> 0:11:52.040 zero point zero. So what a bad year? Sorry sparty, 0:11:52.280 --> 0:11:53.520 All right, all right. 0:11:53.520 --> 0:11:55.400 So we're going to I feel comfortable with it. Two. 0:11:56.160 --> 0:11:57.200 That brings it back to me. 0:11:57.400 --> 0:11:58.120 Yeah, what do you have? 0:11:58.840 --> 0:12:01.400 My second pick was Bill Hancock's bullshit. 0:12:02.600 --> 0:12:05.600 A pretty good pick given the history of Bill Hancock. 0:12:05.800 --> 0:12:10.560 A good pick given his history, But even on my 0:12:10.600 --> 0:12:14.520 own scoring sheet only had two weeks where he was 0:12:14.559 --> 0:12:16.760 trying to spin something. That's really what this gets to. 0:12:16.880 --> 0:12:21.280 The quintessential Bill Hancock bullshit is him trying to pull 0:12:23.520 --> 0:12:27.000 you know, I mean, spinning things is very popular day. Yes, 0:12:27.800 --> 0:12:29.320 Bill Hancock was the original. 0:12:29.480 --> 0:12:31.640 Can I tell you something, I have a little bit 0:12:31.679 --> 0:12:36.360 more respect for Bill Hancock in this day and age. 0:12:36.600 --> 0:12:41.520 I can't imagine giving him more than two. No, it's 0:12:41.720 --> 0:12:44.360 just there just wasn't all that much. There was some 0:12:44.400 --> 0:12:47.880 spin coming to future scheduling one. I think one is 0:12:47.880 --> 0:12:48.319 fair here. 0:12:48.360 --> 0:12:51.680 I feel like one is fair here. Yeah, we will 0:12:51.720 --> 0:12:54.760 get more Bill Hancock bullshit. 0:12:54.520 --> 0:12:55.080 In the future. 0:12:55.160 --> 0:12:58.920 Oh yeah, but probably when we least expect it. Yes, Okay. 0:12:59.360 --> 0:13:02.600 The reason that I took this pick so high it 0:13:02.679 --> 0:13:05.240 was sort of coming on the heels of them putting 0:13:05.800 --> 0:13:08.640 college football playoff games on New Year's Eve. Right, still, 0:13:08.760 --> 0:13:12.440 by and large, a disaster, not as big a disaster 0:13:12.800 --> 0:13:16.600 as it had been the year previous. This coming season, 0:13:16.600 --> 0:13:18.160 we're not going to have that. Well he has. 0:13:18.240 --> 0:13:21.840 He's like literally a grandfather and he's grandfathered in too. 0:13:21.880 --> 0:13:24.160 I mean he runs the BCS, he helps to run 0:13:24.200 --> 0:13:28.040 the playoff whatever iteration we have of college football postseason 0:13:28.400 --> 0:13:32.080 that we have next, even if it's called the Bill 0:13:32.120 --> 0:13:36.360 Hancock is definitely not involved with this playoff system system. Oh, 0:13:36.400 --> 0:13:38.880 who's the executive director? It appears to be Bill Hancock. 0:13:39.640 --> 0:13:40.800 Hancock is cutting things. 0:13:40.920 --> 0:13:42.679 Yeah, okay, so I go one here. 0:13:42.720 --> 0:13:43.600 Yeah, I'm giving you that one. 0:13:43.640 --> 0:13:46.160 Not enough bullshit? All right, let's snake around. We got 0:13:46.200 --> 0:13:49.200 a lot to get through. I have Jim Harrbass Slash 0:13:49.400 --> 0:13:51.280 SEC feud as my third. 0:13:51.200 --> 0:13:55.640 Obviously white hot to start off things, whitefall? What do 0:13:55.720 --> 0:13:58.680 we think about the during the season. 0:13:58.840 --> 0:14:01.839 Kind of cooled off? Did cool off? It cooled off? 0:14:02.160 --> 0:14:04.440 I can't they have an ACC team in a bowl 0:14:04.480 --> 0:14:05.800 game they don't get the SEC. 0:14:06.000 --> 0:14:10.320 I can't go higher than a two. Okay, I feel 0:14:10.360 --> 0:14:14.160 like two is the proper score here. Yeah, because it 0:14:14.240 --> 0:14:16.480 started off so white hot. It feels a lot to 0:14:16.520 --> 0:14:19.280 me like the Michigan State disrespect, right, But I can't 0:14:19.320 --> 0:14:20.960 go high than too because it did cool off. 0:14:21.280 --> 0:14:24.000 Yeah. I mean, if we were talking talking about Jim 0:14:24.040 --> 0:14:26.920 Harbaugh Western Europe feuding, yeah. 0:14:26.800 --> 0:14:28.160 That might be a thing moving forward. 0:14:28.240 --> 0:14:30.960 But he is taking his act away from Florida, away 0:14:30.960 --> 0:14:33.200 from the IMG Academy. I mean, we'll see what happens 0:14:33.240 --> 0:14:37.120 with satellite camps moving forward. But unless you were watching 0:14:37.160 --> 0:14:38.920 the Paul Fine Bomb Show, I don't feel like there 0:14:39.000 --> 0:14:41.360 was much in the way of going back and forth too. 0:14:41.600 --> 0:14:45.000 Okay, go one and a half. If we were doing decimals, I. 0:14:44.880 --> 0:14:48.840 Think the satellite stuff and the discussion point in August 0:14:49.400 --> 0:14:50.440 I think gets you at too. 0:14:50.560 --> 0:14:53.400 Two. Okay, it's in the books for two. Your turn. 0:14:53.520 --> 0:14:56.560 All right, this is back to me. I have Mark 0:14:56.640 --> 0:14:58.400 ricked as a Miami alumnus. 0:14:58.600 --> 0:15:00.920 Did he go to Miami? Went to Miami? Really? 0:15:01.200 --> 0:15:04.200 It was Miami of Florida, the University of Miami. Okay, 0:15:04.200 --> 0:15:05.040 it's all about the U. 0:15:05.240 --> 0:15:08.000 So it's great that he is now had football coach 0:15:08.000 --> 0:15:08.760 in Coral Gables. 0:15:08.880 --> 0:15:13.320 Yes, Okay, it is a crazy coincidence. I'm going to 0:15:13.400 --> 0:15:16.920 give myself a four here. Really, I'm going to give 0:15:16.960 --> 0:15:20.160 myself a four because you could not watch a Miami 0:15:20.160 --> 0:15:25.760 broadcast without at least being mentioned once Okay, so that's 0:15:25.840 --> 0:15:30.360 very specific to Miami games. The problem though, is how 0:15:30.360 --> 0:15:33.040 many big Miami broadcasts were there, like Big Nash on 0:15:33.080 --> 0:15:39.920 the national stage, Notre Dame, Notre Dame. Yeah, I mean 0:15:39.960 --> 0:15:40.520 the Bowl game? 0:15:41.360 --> 0:15:41.480 Right? 0:15:42.800 --> 0:15:45.280 They ever? He got attention on signing day they signed 0:15:45.280 --> 0:15:46.160 a real nice class. 0:15:46.760 --> 0:15:48.400 My my initial thought was three. 0:15:48.760 --> 0:15:51.480 Okay, why three? Just because Miami was not in the 0:15:51.520 --> 0:15:52.680 constant conversations. 0:15:53.040 --> 0:15:55.280 I'll take a three. I feel like a three, but 0:15:55.320 --> 0:15:56.320 no lower than a three. 0:15:56.400 --> 0:15:58.120 Yeah, I wouldn't take lower than the three because it 0:15:58.160 --> 0:15:59.000 was consistent. 0:16:00.160 --> 0:16:02.480 I a way bad only giving you a three for that. 0:16:02.640 --> 0:16:03.960 This is another tweeer for me. 0:16:04.240 --> 0:16:06.840 Yeah, it was consistent, But how consistently. 0:16:06.360 --> 0:16:08.600 Were we all watching Miami games, that's right, or at 0:16:08.680 --> 0:16:12.400 least listening to Miami broadcasts or taking Yeah, I feel 0:16:12.400 --> 0:16:15.080 like that cooled off over the course of the season. See, 0:16:15.080 --> 0:16:16.800 I'm looking at yours just through three picks, and we 0:16:16.840 --> 0:16:19.200 got a motor here because we're falling behind schedule. Okay, 0:16:19.440 --> 0:16:21.400 but look, you've got a three to two and a three. 0:16:21.440 --> 0:16:22.800 I've got a four to a one in a two. 0:16:23.160 --> 0:16:25.520 I'd much rather have two threes than a four to 0:16:25.520 --> 0:16:26.040 two and a one. 0:16:26.080 --> 0:16:28.920 Yeah, you've got a lower floor, maybe a higher ceiling. 0:16:28.960 --> 0:16:30.960 All right, so we're gonna snake back around Josh Rosen's 0:16:31.000 --> 0:16:32.840 twenty eighteen draft stock. 0:16:35.040 --> 0:16:39.080 Rough rough year for the draft stock. He's not even 0:16:39.320 --> 0:16:42.200 the draft stock king of Los Angeles. I'm not even 0:16:42.360 --> 0:16:46.760 sure I heard the words draft mentioned in accordance with 0:16:46.920 --> 0:16:49.560 Josh Rosen after like, well. 0:16:49.440 --> 0:16:51.040 I mean, he was hurt halfway into the year. 0:16:51.120 --> 0:16:53.400 But yeah, no one's even talking about Rosen. 0:16:53.280 --> 0:16:55.520 Serious nerve damage. I think people are much more concerned. 0:16:55.520 --> 0:16:56.960 I mean, it's gonna be a new offense. So yet 0:16:57.000 --> 0:17:01.160 again for UCLA, they fire fire Kennedy Palm, They're bringing 0:17:01.200 --> 0:17:06.280 Jedfish more pro style again, though, I'm gonna have to 0:17:06.280 --> 0:17:06.959 give myself a one. 0:17:07.119 --> 0:17:07.720 This is a one. 0:17:07.760 --> 0:17:08.720 It has to be a one. 0:17:08.880 --> 0:17:11.840 This is a one. I was all in on Josh Rosen. Two. 0:17:11.880 --> 0:17:14.600 I wanted Josh Rosen's draftstock on my team. 0:17:14.880 --> 0:17:17.199 Yeah. Oh man, all right, let's circle back to you. 0:17:17.240 --> 0:17:21.480 What do you got Christian McCaffrey's versatility? 0:17:21.640 --> 0:17:26.920 Okay, Stanford sort of fell off a cliff attention wise 0:17:28.040 --> 0:17:29.280 pretty early on in the season. 0:17:29.359 --> 0:17:31.920 Let me tell you why I believe I came up 0:17:31.960 --> 0:17:35.439 with this storyline. I'll tell you why I came up 0:17:35.440 --> 0:17:38.760 with it and why I picked it. Okay, this is 0:17:38.840 --> 0:17:42.639 one of those things like Tom Hammond's Random Factory. Just 0:17:42.720 --> 0:17:45.159 some nervous Time'm using the word tick a lot on 0:17:45.200 --> 0:17:46.800 this show, and I don't know why. Maybe it's my 0:17:46.840 --> 0:17:50.720 own little tick coincidentally enough, but it is one of 0:17:50.760 --> 0:17:54.880 those announcer things that they focus in on that they 0:17:54.920 --> 0:17:56.960 just they can't get enough of. They can't help themselves 0:17:57.000 --> 0:18:00.560 talking about how versatile this guy is. This may be 0:18:01.280 --> 0:18:05.080
