Speaker 1: if you're watching live on the Fantasy Sports Network YouTube
Speaker 1: live stream, which takes you right inside Studio thirty four
Speaker 1: here in Rock and Riley's in Midtown Manhattan. We got
Speaker 1: a big show for you on a Thursday. My man,
Speaker 1: the Manimal is not down in the fantasy pit of misery. Instead,
Speaker 1: I've got my guys. One of my fantasy best friends forever,
Speaker 1: Mike Florio is on the ones and tools, keeping it
Speaker 1: so hot that we sweat steam. We're gonna be talking
Speaker 1: with Florio a little bit later on because he was
Speaker 1: in this same draft as I was. When we had
Speaker 1: a way too early for two thousand and eighteen draft.
Speaker 1: Mike Florio actually had the number one overall pick. You
Speaker 1: want to know where he went. Tune in a little
Speaker 1: bit later on in the show. We'll talk about it
Speaker 1: a little bit. We've also got my boy Danny down
Speaker 1: there in the pit of misery. We're gonna be chatting
Speaker 1: it up with you guys on the YouTube stream. Here's
Speaker 1: what I want to talk about. Okay, I want to
Speaker 1: talk about what I believe is going to be a
Speaker 1: big problem for the NFL in the playoffs. Okay, we
Speaker 1: saw Travis Kelsey getting knocked out a little stumbling a
Speaker 1: little bit, and he missed the rest of the game. Right.
Speaker 1: Cam Newton also got his clock cleaned, went into the
Speaker 1: tent and they said he had an eye injury. Only
Speaker 1: issue with that was he's wearing a visor. So what
Speaker 1: kind of eye injury did he have? He had the
Speaker 1: kind of eye injury that takes your equilibrium from you,
Speaker 1: where you should have had your helmet taken from you
Speaker 1: and been in the cold, dark, quiet room but the
Speaker 1: NFL can't do that in the playoffs with one of
Speaker 1: its big stars. But what happens if Tom Brady, Lavan Bell,
Speaker 1: Drew Brees, Rob Gronkowski is laid out like Tyrod Taylor
Speaker 1: was in wild Card weekend? And that brings me to
Speaker 1: our pole question out there on Twitter at spitting speeds.
Speaker 1: Is the NFL following the Concussion Protocol and those guidelines
Speaker 1: with fidelity in the NFL playoffs? And also should they
Speaker 1: should there be a different risk proposition because it is
Speaker 1: the playoffs. We're gonna chat about that. I want to
Speaker 1: know what you guys are saying on the YouTube chat
Speaker 1: as the hashtag stats over beat Cipher. We're also going
Speaker 1: to get into the officiating that happened in wild Card weekend.
Speaker 1: A lot of people are saying that it is poor,
Speaker 1: and I have a couple of suggestions for NFL referees
Speaker 1: and officials that might make things a little bit better.
Speaker 1: We've got technology out the ying yang, how about what
Speaker 1: you apply it in the right way. What we're also
Speaker 1: going to do, if you remember Fantasy Freestyle from last year,
Speaker 1: we are bringing it back. It is speeds first, the kids.
Speaker 1: We have our first predictions for the NFL Playoffs from
Speaker 1: my home girl, Zoe take the points, Garulic. We'll see
Speaker 1: who Zoe picks and if it matches up with what
Speaker 1: Speed says, Come on back. We're often running Fantasy Freestyle

Speaker 1: author Fantasy Freestyle on the Fantasy Sportworts Radio Network Dame
Speaker 1: Martinez Speeds, the Spitting Statisticians, the stable genius of the
Speaker 1: Fantasy Sports radio network, hitting you up on a Thursday,
Speaker 1: we got Danny and Mike Florio, one of my fantasy
Speaker 1: best friends forever down there in the fantasy pit of misery. Hey, Florio,
Speaker 1: do me a favorite. Do not look at the poll
Speaker 1: results right now? Okay? On the poll question, I asked
Speaker 1: the pole question, um our NFL teams following the concussion
Speaker 1: protocol with fidelity during the NFL playoffs. I'm gonna tell
Speaker 1: you something. I am very surprised by the poll results.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna bring in Florio a little bit later on
Speaker 1: in the show after I go off about this concussion
Speaker 1: protocol and Florio, I am surprised by the poll results.
Speaker 1: So um, I'm gonna make you guess what they are
Speaker 1: a little bit later on in the show. Do not
Speaker 1: look at the poll results. But that is a little
Speaker 1: bit later on. If you want to contribute to the
Speaker 1: poll results, hit me up on Twitter at Spitting Speeds.
Speaker 1: You can always follow me up a pole questions up.
Speaker 1: You could always holler at me. I'll be trying to
Speaker 1: get back to everybody, help them win their leagues. And
Speaker 1: win that cash. All right, let's go around the league.
Speaker 1: News and notes from around the NFL. A lot of
Speaker 1: contractual talk and also, you know, some injuries to catch
Speaker 1: you up on getting ahead of divisional weekend in the NFL.
Speaker 1: Um out in Los Angeles. Remember we've been talking about
Speaker 1: Sammy Watkins and if he wants to be part of
Speaker 1: a fantasy herd by staying there in Los Angeles or
Speaker 1: being the number one guy somewhere else. I've heard Houston,
Speaker 1: I've heard San Francisco, both teams I think will be
Speaker 1: looking for wide receivers in the off season. Reports now
Speaker 1: saying the Rams may franchise tag Sammy Watkins. And I
Speaker 1: think that's very interesting because check this out. Last year, Uh,
Speaker 1: they signed Robert Woods to a you know, legitimate deal.
Speaker 1: They signed Tavon Austin to one of the most ridiculous
Speaker 1: deals in the NFL. Right now, the Rams already have
Speaker 1: a ton of money locked up in their wide receiver position.
Speaker 1: You also have Cooper Cup there as well, the rookie.
Speaker 1: Do you really want to spend that kind of money
Speaker 1: on Sammy Watkins as well? I'm not so sure. Keep
Speaker 1: an eye on this. Was saying the Rams may tag
Speaker 1: Sammy Watkins. I don't think so. I think Sammy Watkins
Speaker 1: is gonna wind up somewhere else in the off season.
Speaker 1: But we'll keep an eye out on this. Head coach
Speaker 1: in the Atlanta Falcons, Dan Quinn says that Julio Jones
Speaker 1: will be fine. He is good to go with that
Speaker 1: ankle injury. This has been the m O for Julio
Speaker 1: Jones all season long. Julio Jones has been banged up
Speaker 1: pretty much every year of his NFL career, and he
Speaker 1: you know, MSS practice, They manage his reps, but then
Speaker 1: he goes out there on Sundays, whether he is a
Speaker 1: decoy or not. And uh, you know, so he'll be
Speaker 1: out there in Philadelphia on Saturday as the Falcons is
Speaker 1: take on the Philadelphia Eagles. This is the first time,
Speaker 1: as I suspected, the first time a number one seed
Speaker 1: after the buy is going to be a home dog
Speaker 1: to a number six seed. I'll tell you about my
Speaker 1: picks a little bit later on in the week. Listen
Speaker 1: to New England. Patriots are back in action after the bye,
Speaker 1: and it looks like this extra time off was good
Speaker 1: for everybody that was banged up. The Patriots are not
Speaker 1: the most forthcoming with their injury reports anyway. But Chris
Speaker 1: Hogan back practicing, albeit on a limited basis, with that
Speaker 1: shoulder Rex burkehead they said, Oh, he was heavily favoring it.
Speaker 1: They say he was making progress now back practicing coming
Speaker 1: off that knee. Even Malcolm Mitchell back practicing. Uh, Gillesley
Speaker 1: back practicing. It looks like the New England Patriots will
Speaker 1: have a full cupboard of weapons when they take on
Speaker 1: the Tennessee Titans. Remember they did have the buy it
Speaker 1: should be that way. Who will not be ready? It
Speaker 1: looks like his DeMarco Murray on the other side for
Speaker 1: exotic smash mouth. But there are reports now that it
Speaker 1: looks like DeMarco Murray people are saying may have played
Speaker 1: his last snap with the Tennessee Titans. It looks like
Speaker 1: this could be Derek's backfield moving forward to Marco already
Speaker 1: may wind up being elsewhere after the Titans get eliminated. Also,
Speaker 1: in contractual kind of negotiation time, Levian Bell is saying
Speaker 1: that if the Pittsburgh Steelers franchise him and again, he
Speaker 1: may just walk away. I think that's an idle threat,
Speaker 1: But what I do believe is possible. And I've been
Speaker 1: saying this all season long. You guys know I have
Speaker 1: been high on the Pittsburgh Steelers in this offense all
Speaker 1: season long. You know I have been saying that this
Speaker 1: is potentially the last ride for Big Ben Roethlisberger. Let
Speaker 1: me ask you this, If you're Levan Bell and you
Speaker 1: win the Super Bowl and Big Ben goes and retires,
Speaker 1: why would you want to sign with the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Speaker 1: I don't think you do, so. I think Levian is
Speaker 1: set in the groundwork. He could be elsewhere as well,
Speaker 1: And wouldn't that be interesting? Wouldn't that impact the way
Speaker 1: you draft fantasy? Next year? Will show you the way
Speaker 1: that Mike Florio, that I that Greg Suspen, Jake Seely,
Speaker 1: Corey Parsons, and some of the other big boys here
Speaker 1: at the Fantasy Sports Radio Network drafted a little bit
Speaker 1: later on in the show. But something I want to
Speaker 1: talk to you guys about here on the hashtag stats
Speaker 1: overbeat Cipher is this idea of the officiating. Okay, there
Speaker 1: was lots of buzz this week about bad calls in
Speaker 1: that Tennessee Kansas City game. I thought Marcus Mariota fumbled
Speaker 1: not once, but twice, once when Derrick Johnson lit him
Speaker 1: up at the end of the game, and also on
Speaker 1: that two point conversion. I thought he did. There were
Speaker 1: other calls that they are now saying that, uh, Jeff Triplet,
Speaker 1: the ref maybe blew he maybe blew um on the
Speaker 1: Mariota stacked to himself when he threw the touchdown and
Speaker 1: caught it himself. Triplet wrongly announced that Mariota was an
Speaker 1: eligible receiver because he was in the shotgun. That's not
Speaker 1: the case. He was an eligible receiver because the ball
Speaker 1: was tipped. Anybody can catch the ball after the ball
Speaker 1: was tipped. There was a play after a Titan's first
Speaker 1: down when the ball was spotted about like three or
Speaker 1: four yards short of where it was supposed to be.
Speaker 1: There was one time when Triplet announced the penalty on
Speaker 1: somebody who was not even in the game. I think
Speaker 1: it was like number eleven on Tennessee. There was no
Speaker 1: number eleven on tendency. There was also one time where
Speaker 1: there was an inavert and whistle on a Derrick Henry
Speaker 1: carry at the end of the game. A lot of
Speaker 1: people are saying, even Mike Pereira, you know who comes
Speaker 1: in as like the rules expert on the officiating crew.
Speaker 1: He even tweeted later on that it was a really
Speaker 1: bad game and you don't but from the officials, and
Speaker 1: you don't see that a lot. You know, you don't
Speaker 1: see coaches critiquing other coaches, ref saying bad things about
Speaker 1: other refs. That's the fraternity, right, So for that to happen,
Speaker 1: I think there was something going on here. And there's
Speaker 1: a lot of buzz about just Triplet specifically being a
Speaker 1: bad ref an older gentleman as well, and there's talk
Speaker 1: that he may in fact move on. I I equated
Speaker 1: remember like Adelaide Bird who had that scoring for u
Speaker 1: uh triple G and Canelo Alvarez and then there was
Speaker 1: controversy over that and Adelaide Bird eventually stepped away. Jeff
Speaker 1: Triplet might do the same thing. But I ask you this,
Speaker 1: I have a couple of things that I think the
Speaker 1: NFL can easily do to improve officiating. I want to
Speaker 1: give you my platform, my thesis, and then hit me
Speaker 1: up hashtag stats over be, hit me up in the
Speaker 1: chat room, hit me up if you want at eight
Speaker 1: four four eight four three six eight seven nine and
Speaker 1: seeing what you guys think about it. Here's what I
Speaker 1: think we need to do number one for the officials.
Speaker 1: We need younger officials. What all these officials are like
Speaker 1: fifty sixty years old and they're expected to keep up
Speaker 1: with the pace of play with like the best athletes
Speaker 1: in the world. We get these next gen stats, right,
Speaker 1: the Tyreek Killers running at twenty two miles an hour.
Speaker 1: You know that. Uh that Derrick Henry and its touchdown
Speaker 1: run got up to you know all this momentum. Why
Speaker 1: are we having a sixties sixty five year old man
Speaker 1: trying to keep up with him on the sidelines. Younger
Speaker 1: officials people, that's number one. Number two, why are the officials?
Speaker 1: Why are the referees not full time employees of the NFL?
Speaker 1: Why are they part time guys who are doing this
Speaker 1: gig and also like a lawyer in the off season
Speaker 1: or a tax consultant in the off season. Make this
Speaker 1: position full time. Make them then work with the teams,
Speaker 1: do practices throughout the season, Do do workshops throughout the
Speaker 1: season and in the off season. Uh, you know at
Speaker 1: the draft, combine talking to the kids that are coming
Speaker 1: in the rookies that the ref should be full time.
Speaker 1: This shouldn't be the side hustle for ed hockey Lee,
Speaker 1: this should be his main gig. That's number two. Number
Speaker 1: three technology. You know, we have now all these camera
Speaker 1: angles and these slow mo instant replays which quite frankly
Speaker 1: make everything look like it is not a catch. Why
Speaker 1: can't we use technology in a smart way? You know,
Speaker 1: we saw that they still had to uh put an
Speaker 1: index card on the first down chains to see if
Speaker 1: there was room in between the ball. First of all,
Speaker 1: why are we using chains in two thousand and eighteen.
Speaker 1: Why can't there just be like a sensor on the
Speaker 1: ball and we know if he got you know, ten
Speaker 1: yards ahead. Can't we do that? Can't we put a
Speaker 1: chip in the ball? Didn't we have a chip in
Speaker 1: the uprights when we were testing How why the uprights
Speaker 1: needed to be in the preseason. Why can't we put
Speaker 1: a chip in the ball to not only spot the ball,
Speaker 1: see if it breaks the plane of an end zone,
Speaker 1: see like if it loses touch from you know, from
Speaker 1: a receiver if they're bobbling it. Why can't we have
Speaker 1: a censor on the side the mines also to see
Speaker 1: if a guy stepped out of bounds or not. We
Speaker 1: have an electronic eye in tennis? Why can't we have
Speaker 1: one on the sidelines of the NFL. We're literally gonna
Speaker 1: I got it. Let's have these two sixty year old
Speaker 1: men stretch out a chain a chain link that measures
Speaker 1: ten yards. That's the most appropriate way to do it
Speaker 1: in two thousand and eighteen. I disagree. I think we
Speaker 1: can do better. Let me know what you guys think
Speaker 1: out there on the chat room right there listening to
Speaker 1: the Fantasy Freestyle and the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. Hit
Speaker 1: me up on Twitter at spitting speeds when we come back.
Speaker 1: I'm telling you, the concussion protocol is go to get
Speaker 1: fudged and it's going to cause controversy. There are four
Speaker 1: games this weekend to next Sunday and then the Super Bowl.
Speaker 1: I am garin damn teeing you. In one of the
Speaker 1: seven playoff games left in the NFL, a big times
Speaker 1: star is gonna get his bell wrong. In what normal situations,
Speaker 1: they would have taken its helmet away and for some
Speaker 1: reason magic will happen inside the medical tent. It already
Speaker 1: happened wild Card weekend. I'm gonna say how this is
Speaker 1: a real problem for the NFL when we come back.
Speaker 1: It's the Fantasy Freestyle on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network.
Speaker 1: You're listening to your boys. Speeds, the fitting Statistician, the
Speaker 1: stable genius up in here in Studio thirty four. Come

Speaker 1: Freestyle right here on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. Dane
Speaker 1: Martinez Speeds, the spitting Statistician holding you down. On a Thursday,
Speaker 1: I was talking a little bit about NFL officiating. How
Speaker 1: they need in my opinion, they need younger referees, they
Speaker 1: need full time referees, and they need to do something
Speaker 1: with the ball. They could have some sensors on the ball.
Speaker 1: We don't need to stretch out a chain for ten yards.
Speaker 1: It's two thousand and eighteen. We could find out, Hello, Hello,
Speaker 1: we can find out also when people hit the sidelines.
Speaker 1: We've got people waving her Studio thirty four and Rock
Speaker 1: and Riley's people have cut their New Year's resolutions short
Speaker 1: because they're still out here drinking on a Thursday. But
Speaker 1: I digress. All right, check this out. I wanted to
Speaker 1: talk to you guys about this concussion protocol because I
Speaker 1: think I think it's a sham when we go to
Speaker 1: the NFL playoffs. Okay, first of all, already earlier this year.
Speaker 1: I don't know if you um saw this, but the
Speaker 1: Seattle Seahawks were fined a hundred thousand dollars one week
Speaker 1: when they said they violated the concussion protocol as it
Speaker 1: related to Russell was listening. So Russell got banged up.
Speaker 1: They did not follow the protocol. He was back in there.
Speaker 1: They later investigated it and find the organization a hundred k.
Speaker 1: I gotta tell you something, if you're the Seattle Seahawks
Speaker 1: and you're in a tight spot and you need your
Speaker 1: m VP candidate Russell Wilson, a hundred thousand dollars is
Speaker 1: a small price to pay for the organization. And that's
Speaker 1: like in Week seven. Imagine if this was the NFC
Speaker 1: Championship game. I think there are going to be teams.
Speaker 1: I think they're going to be organizations. I think there's
Speaker 1: gonna be scenarios and scenes that are a problem for
Speaker 1: the NFL. Look at wild Card weekend. Three examples One
Speaker 1: Travis Kelsey. Travis Kelsey got banged up, he was stumbling.
Speaker 1: He left the game, and Travis Kelsey is one of
Speaker 1: the preeminent tight ends in the NFL, and I would
Speaker 1: say that changed. That changed the game. The Chiefs were
Speaker 1: not the same after Travis Kelsey left, but he left
Speaker 1: Tyrod Taylor, and one of the last plaise of that
Speaker 1: game got what looked like a scary concussion. I want
Speaker 1: to ask you what happens though, if instead of being
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter, that's a you know, in a three
Speaker 1: three game, in the middle of the third quarter, and
Speaker 1: he's not laying there visibly like passed out or shaking,
Speaker 1: but you know, he gets dinged up and then he's
Speaker 1: you know, he's okay. And the Buffalo Bills have to
Speaker 1: decide in a three three tie in their first play
Speaker 1: off game in seventeen years. Do they bring out, you know,
Speaker 1: Tyrod Taylor. Do they entrust it to Nate Peterman? What
Speaker 1: if this is not even Tyrod Taylor? What if this
Speaker 1: is a star on a nether level. What if in
Speaker 1: the NFC Championship game, in the middle of the second
Speaker 1: quarter of a ten ten game, Drew Brees gets his
Speaker 1: uh gets snot bubbles popped out of him and it's
Speaker 1: on third down, so he hits has to hit the sideline.
Speaker 1: But then it's obvious on the sideline that he's not
Speaker 1: responding to the test, and in normal circumstances they would
Speaker 1: take his helmet away. Do you think they actually do?
Speaker 1: What if Tom Brady, he's in the Super Bowl and
Speaker 1: he gets his bell wrong, like apparently has happened before,
Speaker 1: so says Gisel. What if Rob Gronkowski gets his bell
Speaker 1: rung because he's got a target on his back. What
Speaker 1: if lavy On Bell gets his bell wrung? What what what
Speaker 1: do they do? What are the teams do in this situation?
Speaker 1: And here's the other thing, this has already happened. Last week,
Speaker 1: Cam Newton got rocked. Cameron Jordan at the end of
Speaker 1: the game on a postgame interview, said he thought they
Speaker 1: knocked Cam out. Cam Newton goes into the tent, they
Speaker 1: put up the little blue curtain, and then he comes
Speaker 1: back out and they say it was an eye injury.
Speaker 1: The man was wearing a visor. What he got poked
Speaker 1: in the eye. No, no, no, that was a cover up.
Speaker 1: They are not following their own guidelines, their own protocols,
Speaker 1: because in the playoffs it is a different risk proposition.
Speaker 1: You know, they always tell quarterbacks they need to slide,
Speaker 1: but then they say, oh, but if it's a third down, Oh,
Speaker 1: if it's in the red zone, then you go for it. Right.
Speaker 1: I think the same thing is happening with the NFL
Speaker 1: and their concussion protocol. Yeah, they want to make it
Speaker 1: look like they care about players safety. Yeah, there's an
Speaker 1: independent neurologist. Yeah, the referee can make the signal and
Speaker 1: tell him you need to go. But are they gonna
Speaker 1: do that? What is Bill Belichick and Tom Brady gonna
Speaker 1: do if in the a f C Championship game, Tom
Speaker 1: Brady looks a little woozy and the ref wants to
Speaker 1: say you need to sit out. You really think that's
Speaker 1: gonna happen, because I don't what if it's Drew brees
Speaker 1: in the NFC Championship game, same situation. You think Sean
Speaker 1: Payne is gonna listen to the ref when the ref
Speaker 1: says that he looks a little dazed, send them to
Speaker 1: the independent neurologist. I don't think so. And the other
Speaker 1: thing is, I don't think Saints fans or Patriots fans
Speaker 1: or Steelers fans would want them too. I think they
Speaker 1: would want the team to leave their blue chips stud in.
Speaker 1: It will be the championship game, the super Bowl, for
Speaker 1: God's sakes, and I think that will make a very
Speaker 1: interesting converssation. I think this cloud will hang over. You've
Speaker 1: seen the refs with quick hooks throughout the season saying up,
Speaker 1: you've got to go to the sideline. Up, They go
Speaker 1: right into the locker room. They take their helmet away
Speaker 1: right away. Why didn't that happen with kimym Newton Because
Speaker 1: the Panthers need Cam Newton and it was a close
Speaker 1: playoff game, that's why. So what is it here? Are
Speaker 1: we actually caring about players safety? Is it kind of
Speaker 1: a zero tolerance? Is it a hashtag all brains matter?
Speaker 1: Or do brains not matter as much during the NFL playoffs?
Speaker 1: Do brains not matter as much if it's a close
Speaker 1: game in the third quarter of the Super Bowl. Do
Speaker 1: brains not matter as much if it happens to be
Speaker 1: Levy on Bells, if it happens to be Rob Gronkowski's,
Speaker 1: if it happens to be Adam Feelings, if it happened
Speaker 1: to be Big Ben Roethlisberger's. Let's say Sunday in the
Speaker 1: third quarter, Pittsburgh's up seventeen to ten, and Big Ben
Speaker 1: gets rocked. But he's a gamer. He's gonna want to
Speaker 1: go out there. Where is the independent neurologist? Then? So
Speaker 1: that's what I asked you on Twitter. I asked you,
Speaker 1: are the NFL teams following the concussion Protocol with fidelity
Speaker 1: during these NFL playoffs? And check this out? Check this
Speaker 1: out right now? Only eight percent of you say yes,
Speaker 1: percent of you agree with me that this protocol is
Speaker 1: b s in the NFL playoffs. I've found that stunning
Speaker 1: of you agree with me that this is all for
Speaker 1: show right now. It's like taking your shoes off at
Speaker 1: the airport. That's for peace of mind on the public,
Speaker 1: not how to actually catch a terrorist. That's the play
Speaker 1: kate the public, And that's what the concussion protocol is
Speaker 1: in the NFL playoffs. It's just to be like, oh,
Speaker 1: we care, No you don't. Right now, of you say no,
Speaker 1: they're not following the protocol, and it bothers me. But
Speaker 1: what I find interesting is the percent of you who
Speaker 1: were honest and say no, but I'm okay with it,
Speaker 1: because I do think it's okay. I do think there
Speaker 1: should be heightened risk in the NFL playoffs. I do
Speaker 1: think it's a different risk proposition. The same way Aaron
Speaker 1: Rodgers is not sliding, you know, he's just going right
Speaker 1: out of bound in Week two of the preseason, but
Speaker 1: in Week sixteen, with the playoffs on the line to
Speaker 1: try and get the first down on third and six,
Speaker 1: he's diving. He's going head first. The risk changes these things,
Speaker 1: and I think that that's valid. I think that should
Speaker 1: be part of the equation. So right now, eight percent
Speaker 1: of you say yes, the NFL teams are following the protocol,
Speaker 1: say no, and it bothers me, And then of you
Speaker 1: say no, but I'm straight up, I'm okay with it.
Speaker 1: I am in that camp. I appreciate of you that
Speaker 1: are being honest, but I want to hear from you guys,
Speaker 1: I want to go down to the YouTube stream all
Speaker 1: right there the hashtag stats over beat cipher. So we
Speaker 1: go down to the fantasy Pit of misery, and I know,
Speaker 1: my mooy, Danny is down there, Danny going doing stairs,
Speaker 1: running up and down from the fantasy pit of misery
Speaker 1: into the studio all the way back down. Hey Danny,
Speaker 1: if you're in the fantasy Pit of misery, I want
Speaker 1: to know, what do you think about this concussion matter?
Speaker 1: Do you think it's true hashtag all brains matter? Or
Speaker 1: do NFL playoff brains matter a little bit less? What
Speaker 1: do you think, Danny? I mean, do you think here? Here?
Speaker 1: I guess it's more of the argument. Do you think
Speaker 1: the player wants to be out of the game when
Speaker 1: when the player never wants to be out of the game. Though, yeah,
Speaker 1: the player would never want to be out of the game.
Speaker 1: I think though the player has the ability to convince
Speaker 1: the team a little bit more when the playoffs are
Speaker 1: on the line and it happens to be a star
Speaker 1: like Cam Newton got rocked by the NFL concussion guidelines.
Speaker 1: Cam Newton should have gone to the locker room. Instead,
Speaker 1: he went to the little tent for about thirty seconds
Speaker 1: and all of a sudden was fine. Like, That's what
Speaker 1: I think is BS quite frankly, if they're gonna have
Speaker 1: a policy, they have to implement it. And if that
Speaker 1: means that Tom Brady misses two drives in the Super Bowl,
Speaker 1: so be it. But they're never gonna do it that way,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Danny, I absolutely agree with that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: all the star quarterbacks especially, I mean, they're they're definitely
Speaker 1: not gonna be They're gonna be the exception to the rules.
Speaker 1: So do their brains matter less? I guess, I guess.
Speaker 1: Check this out. Check this out here the flip side. Uh,
Speaker 1: just you know, put it to put a little bow
Speaker 1: on this. I got some people that brains matter more.
Speaker 1: Check this out. I went to a college football game
Speaker 1: this season. I went to a Columbia college football game. Okay,
Speaker 1: in the IVY League. Do you know in the IVY
Speaker 1: League they kick off from the forty not from the
Speaker 1: thirty five because they don't want any touch They want
Speaker 1: all touchbacks, they don't want any kickoff returns because they
Speaker 1: think that in the IVY League all these kids are
Speaker 1: gonna go on to be doctors and lawyers and that
Speaker 1: their brains matter so much so they're in the league.
Speaker 1: They actually kick off from the forty, not from the
Speaker 1: thirty five. They also in the Ivy League have less
Speaker 1: practices in pasts than any other conference in the n
Speaker 1: C Double A. Why because their brains matter more. They're
Speaker 1: gonna be doctors, they're gonna be lawyers, they're gonna be engineers.
Speaker 1: They're at Ivy League schools. Their brains matter more than
Speaker 1: the farm boys in the SEC. Apparently, hashtag all brains matter.
Speaker 1: I want to hear what you have to say about
Speaker 1: this on the hashtag stats over beat Cipher on the
Speaker 1: Fantasy sports radio network YouTube Streme. When we come back,
Speaker 1: we're gonna have my guy Mike Florio from the Fantasy
Speaker 1: Best Freshmans Forever. We're gonna chop it up about this.

Speaker 1: draft that we already had way too early, and we're
Speaker 1: gonna debut for two thousand eighteen speeds versus the kids.
Speaker 1: We got kids making picks. Can they do better than speeds?

Speaker 1: Welcome back to the Fantasy Freestyle right here on the
Speaker 1: Fantasy Sports Radio Network, Dane Martinez, Speed to spitting statistician
Speaker 1: holding you down on a Thursday. We got my man
Speaker 1: Mike Florio in for this segment. You can hear him
Speaker 1: here on the Fantasy Best Friends Forever along with uh
Speaker 1: Frank Stanfell, along with Greg Sussman. They chop it up, Yo, Florio,
Speaker 1: we've had something programming changes. What's the time on BFFs
Speaker 1: these days? Nothing changed on bff still eleven a and
Speaker 1: twelve pm Eastern, All right, so you can definitely check
Speaker 1: out Mike Florio, Frank Stanfell and of course Susmania Greg Sussman.
Speaker 1: There on the Fantasy Best Friends Forever. I like it.
Speaker 1: It's a great show. You guys should check it out.
Speaker 1: Maybe you should even use the Fantasy Sports Radio Network
Speaker 1: app in order to do so, because here at the
Speaker 1: Fantasy Sports Radio Network, we are the only twenty four
Speaker 1: hour a day, seven day a week free way for
Speaker 1: you to get everything you need to win your leagues
Speaker 1: and win that cash. Hey, Floria, what did you think
Speaker 1: about my take on these concussions? What do you think? Like,
Speaker 1: isn't it kind of an inevitability that at some point
Speaker 1: in the playoffs one of like the true faces of
Speaker 1: the league gets concost and the has an issue on
Speaker 1: its hands, like do they let do they take Big
Speaker 1: Ben away from the Steelers in the a f C
Speaker 1: Championship Game. I think we kind of already saw something
Speaker 1: like that with Cam with Cam and it sucks because like, yeah,
Speaker 1: obviously you want the stars out there and these are mean,
Speaker 1: more meaningful games. But I actually voted that it kind
Speaker 1: of bothers me because I came into on Monday on
Speaker 1: BFS and I said that I thought that, like, the
Speaker 1: Panthers clearly violated the rules and and it ended up
Speaker 1: the Chiefs didn't violate the rules and they lost and lost.
Speaker 1: But here's the thing. Also, remember Russell will This happened
Speaker 1: with Russell Wilson in the regular season, and all the
Speaker 1: league didn't find the Seahawks a hundred thousand dollars. So, like,
Speaker 1: if I'm the Panthers, right, and I have the decision
Speaker 1: of like, am I gonna look the other way and
Speaker 1: run Cam Newton out there, the penalty of a hundred
Speaker 1: thousand dollars from my organization versus like the potential for
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl tophee is really a no brainer, right, Like,
Speaker 1: if Tom Brady gets his bell rung in the Super Bowl,
Speaker 1: they're not gonna pull Tom Brady. Oh, you're right. The
Speaker 1: fact that it's a hundred dollar fun as well, it's
Speaker 1: not a deterrent, right, That's not a deterrent that Russell Wilson.
Speaker 1: That was a joke. I know, That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: He walked in and he turned around and walked right out.
Speaker 1: He was like, I'm good. And now you got the
Speaker 1: little tent that they could just put up, you know,
Speaker 1: And I thought it was hysterical. They said with Cam
Speaker 1: Newton that it was actually an eye injury. The man
Speaker 1: was wearing a visor what kind of eye injury could
Speaker 1: he possibly have had? And he saying like, oh, I thought,
Speaker 1: doesn't hit my eye. But then I realized I had
Speaker 1: advice right exactly. It's absolutely ridiculous. So you were with
Speaker 1: say that that say no and it bothers you. I
Speaker 1: am with the pent that say no, But I'm actually
Speaker 1: okay with it. I mean I think, like, you know,
Speaker 1: are you not entertained? Let him, let him e cake,
Speaker 1: let him, let him go out there. I think that's
Speaker 1: part of the risk prop position, you know, the same
Speaker 1: way that Aaron Rodgers doesn't go to the sidelines when
Speaker 1: he needs that first down in a playoff game verse
Speaker 1: week two of the preseason. I think in the playoffs, like, yo,
Speaker 1: you gotta put your brain at risk. Apparently that's what
Speaker 1: the NFL is in my opinion, But we shall see.
Speaker 1: Hey Florio, I don't know if you remember, but last
Speaker 1: year we did something. It was a lot of fun.
Speaker 1: It was speeds versus the kids. Okay, So what I
Speaker 1: did was I picked all the playoff games and then
Speaker 1: I brought on a lot of kids that were between
Speaker 1: Like we had kids as young as like a year
Speaker 1: and a half old up to about like I would
Speaker 1: say eight nine year old kids, and they were just
Speaker 1: picking the games with whatever rationale they wanted. And we
Speaker 1: wanted to see if any of these kids could actually
Speaker 1: pick the games at a better clip than the quote
Speaker 1: unquote expert that was speeds and spitting statistician. I am
Speaker 1: happy to report that last year, nobody beat me. I
Speaker 1: actually beat all the kids. I also beat uh, Chris Bovona,
Speaker 1: I believe it was. I also beat Don Burns. I
Speaker 1: had the best record picking the playoff games last year. Uh.
Speaker 1: Last week I was still in Asia, but on Twitter,
Speaker 1: uh with your boy, Chris Ventra. I picked last week.
Speaker 1: I went three and one. The Titans were the only
Speaker 1: game that I did not get correctly. I did, however,
Speaker 1: have the Falcons over the Rams. I had the excuse me.
Speaker 1: I had the Jaguars over the Bills, and I had
Speaker 1: the Saints over the Panthers. So I'm three in one
Speaker 1: right now. I'll be giving my official picks for divisional
Speaker 1: Weekend on tomorrow's episode of the Fantasy Freestyle. Chris Ventra
Speaker 1: our boy, Who's coming back tomorrow. He's two and two.
Speaker 1: He lost on the Titans as well. He had the Chiefs,
Speaker 1: but he also had his boy Todd Gurley in the Rams.
Speaker 1: So he's two and two. I'm three and one, and
Speaker 1: we have the debut of Speeds versus the kids. We have,
Speaker 1: we have my homegirls. Zoe, Zoe has picked these games already.
Speaker 1: Zoe is only about a year and a half to
Speaker 1: two years old. Okay, maybe she's about two years old,
Speaker 1: and Zoe is ready to pick these games. Florio, can
Speaker 1: we play Zoe's picks right now for divisional weekend? Uh?
Speaker 1: This is Zoe? Uh, this is her picks for divisional weekend?
Speaker 1: Say hi? She doesn't want to say hi, which is weird.
Speaker 1: Clearly the Eagles, Who, Patriots or Titans. She's going with
Speaker 1: the Titans, Vikings or Saints. Okay, she's going with the Saints.
Speaker 1: And now, Florio, now let's play the second one. That's
Speaker 1: what she makes the last pick. Okay, so she's going
Speaker 1: so far, she's going Eagles, Titans, Saints. Let's see who
Speaker 1: she has between the Steelers and the Jaguars. Steelers or Jacksonville.
Speaker 1: That sounds like Jacksonville to me. What do you think, Florio?
Speaker 1: It looks like Okay, so we have Zoe. Zoe is
Speaker 1: going with the Eagles, the Titans, Jacksonville and the Saints.
Speaker 1: Note that Zoe is taking all four underdogs in Divisional Weekend.
Speaker 1: That's why I call her Zoe taking the points. Garalic
Speaker 1: big shout out to my homegirl, Zoe. Zoe is only
Speaker 1: about two years old. She's picking the Eagles, the Titans,
Speaker 1: the Jags, and the Saints. See if she could do
Speaker 1: better than speeds. The spitting statistician Florio, what are you
Speaker 1: think about Zoey's picks? She's going Eagles, Titans, Jags, and Saints.
Speaker 1: She's taken the points. She likes the underdogs. What do
Speaker 1: you think The only one that I think has a
Speaker 1: legit chance is the Saints. Yeah, yeah, I hear you.
Speaker 1: I hear you. A lot of people do like the Saints.
Speaker 1: You don't. Um. I gotta tell you, though, UM, I
Speaker 1: agree with Zoe on two of her picks. That's a
Speaker 1: tease for you for tomorrow. I I am picking two
Speaker 1: of the same teams as Zoe. Okay, so we will
Speaker 1: talk about that a little bit more tomorrow. I'll say this, though,
Speaker 1: if you were on the Fantasy Freestyle all year long,
Speaker 1: you know the other team that I am going with.
Speaker 1: I'll leave it at that. Um. Hey, Florio. Uh, last
Speaker 1: week we did this not kind of like way too
Speaker 1: early draft for two thousand and eighteen, you had the
Speaker 1: number one overall pick, and uh, you won't up with
Speaker 1: the girly man you want with Todd Gurley number one
Speaker 1: one overall? Why did you take Todd Gurley as opposed
Speaker 1: to say, Calavon bell Is, Zeke Elliott, and David Johnson,
Speaker 1: maybe even in Antonio Brown. What about Todd Gurley stood out?
Speaker 1: I know he was the number one performer this year,
Speaker 1: but a lot of times, you know, stay at number one,
Speaker 1: Uh isn't really consistent. You know, like people poke their
Speaker 1: head up and then go right back into kind of
Speaker 1: the mid level range. Why are you confident that girle
Speaker 1: Well once again deserve the number one overall pick. Maybe
Speaker 1: he won't be the number one performer, but I have
Speaker 1: no doubts that he is going to be a top
Speaker 1: three to five running back. I mean, he literally won
Speaker 1: me a championship this year. He put me on his
Speaker 1: back and delivered two four point games. I went out.
Speaker 1: I've have Girley for three straight years now in all
Speaker 1: my keeper leagues and dynasty. I got him as a rookie.
Speaker 1: Evan ridding him since I have his shirt, Dane, I
Speaker 1: had to go with my guy. I'm not everyone to
Speaker 1: go bold and make, you know, try to make a
Speaker 1: pick that people are gonna talk about. Maybe it's boring
Speaker 1: because he was the number one player this year. The
Speaker 1: weapons are coming back, Sean McVeigh is gonna be back.
Speaker 1: I don't really see what concerns that are there for
Speaker 1: tug Gerley, where I think you can make concerns for
Speaker 1: the other running backs. What would be okay, what would
Speaker 1: be your concern for Levy on Bell? Big Ben retires
Speaker 1: fair enough? You know, I've been on that train. I've
Speaker 1: been saying that I actually believe it. Big Ben retires,
Speaker 1: Levyan Bell will not be on the Pittsburgh Steelers. And
Speaker 1: I gotta say this. You know, obviously we're doing this.
Speaker 1: You know, we acknowledge it is kind of way too
Speaker 1: early that we're doing this. And so that's what I
Speaker 1: wanted to ask you about. Also, some of like the
Speaker 1: wide receivers who are out here, we're drafted that or
Speaker 1: or maybe elsewhere next year. When you're doing something like this,
Speaker 1: when you're drafting quote unquote way too early, how much
Speaker 1: do you consider, you know, player movement. You know, I'm
Speaker 1: thinking about guys like Josh Gordon, who maybe elsewhere. I'm
Speaker 1: thinking about rumors, you know, that are around guys like
Speaker 1: Carlos Hyde, or rumors that are around someone like even
Speaker 1: an old Dell Beckham. You know, how much of that
Speaker 1: do you consider when doing a draft like this, Mike,
Speaker 1: I think I would consider it a lot more of
Speaker 1: the the draft that we were gonna play out. Like,
Speaker 1: for instance, I just completed my first baseball draft of
Speaker 1: the season, and I went with guys who I think
Speaker 1: are gonna get safe playing time rather than guys who
Speaker 1: are unsigned and we don't know where they're gonna end up. Well,
Speaker 1: that was like a tiebreaker for me. But in a
Speaker 1: mock draft like this, like, I think it's fun to
Speaker 1: take a Josh Gordon and get to speculate where you
Speaker 1: think he's gonna end up. Stuff like that. Yeah, so
Speaker 1: I did that. I took Josh Gordon, who I'm going
Speaker 1: to speculate on. I also took Allen Robinson, who you know,
Speaker 1: people forget, you know, like DeAndre Hopkins was the number
Speaker 1: two wide receiver in this draft. Okay, he went I
Speaker 1: think was like number six overall something like that. DeAndre
Speaker 1: Hopkins wasn't even considered one of the top four wide
Speaker 1: receivers going into last year's draft. You know a lot
Speaker 1: of people had him like, you know, nine, ten, eleven,
Speaker 1: something like that. You know, so who knows who those
Speaker 1: guys are gonna be. That's why I went with guys
Speaker 1: like Josh Gordon Allen Robinson who have the potential to
Speaker 1: be top five. But you never know because it's something
Speaker 1: you know that you want to talk about. Right. Also,
Speaker 1: we did We did six rounds, Mike, and there were
Speaker 1: only three quarterbacks taken, Aaron Rodgers, Deshaun Watson, and Russell Wilson.
Speaker 1: You were one of the teams that took a quarterback.
Speaker 1: I want to ask you, why did you go with
Speaker 1: a quarterback instead of waiting. I've been always recommended waiting,
Speaker 1: and last year, you know, if I waited, I was
Speaker 1: telling people you can wait and get guys like Matthew Stafford,
Speaker 1: Carson Wentz and Alex Smith that would have worked out
Speaker 1: for you. This year, why did you go ahead and
Speaker 1: grab one of the top quarterbacks You took Russell Wilson
Speaker 1: in the fifth round. Yeah. Normally I'm a huge advocate
Speaker 1: of waiting, and I think I'm going to be this year.
Speaker 1: The loan exception to me is if you can get
Speaker 1: one of these, if everyone else is waiting and one
Speaker 1: of the elite guys falls to you at a price
Speaker 1: and I think is a fair value. And getting Russell
Speaker 1: Wilson in the fifth round, who was the number one quarterback,
Speaker 1: and unless you know they actually get a run game
Speaker 1: in there, I don't think that's gonna change. So I
Speaker 1: was excited to get Wilson in the fifth round, but
Speaker 1: if if he didn't follow me, I would have just
Speaker 1: waited on quarterback like I always do. All right, fair enough,
Speaker 1: And the last thing I'll do real quick with you,
Speaker 1: Mike here is there were a lot of rookie running
Speaker 1: batch drafted Sae Kwon, Barkley, Darius Guys from l As you,
Speaker 1: Sony Michelle from Georgia. I even when when got Rashad
Speaker 1: Penny from San Diego State. If you look at the
Speaker 1: rookies this year between Kareem Hunt, Leonard four Nette, Dalvin Cook,
Speaker 1: Alvin Kamara, you gotta figure there are going to be
Speaker 1: four or five rookies that make an impact. Are you
Speaker 1: okay with seeing a lot of rookies go in this draft?
Speaker 1: As well. I think these are very talented players. I
Speaker 1: think that last year, the performance of rookies this year
Speaker 1: is going to drive up the price of rookies next year.
Speaker 1: And I also think they want to mock like this.
Speaker 1: Everyone kind of wants to be first on a guy.
Speaker 1: So maybe that's why you see rookies get pushed up. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you want to be the guy that says that you
Speaker 1: had him eight months ago. Planting your flag here on
Speaker 1: the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. All right, when we come
Speaker 1: back here on the Fantasy Freestyle, will tie a nice

Speaker 1: you know what it is. Foy Dane Martinez Speeds, the
Speaker 1: spitting statistician, the stable genius here of the Fantasy Sports
Speaker 1: Radio Network. We've been talking about officiating, how I believe
Speaker 1: they need younger officials. I belie if they need full
Speaker 1: time officials, and they should take advantage of some of
Speaker 1: the technology that they do. In fact, have big shout
Speaker 1: out to Liberty Finder on Twitter who hits me off
Speaker 1: saying that he agrees with those ideas that he saw
Speaker 1: a referee out there as a tax consultant sometime at
Speaker 1: Walmart last week. We're also talking about the concussions. Florio
Speaker 1: and I both thinks that it is a sham that
Speaker 1: that teams are following the concussion protocol here in the
Speaker 1: NFL playoffs hashtag all Brains Matter, And right now, eight
Speaker 1: percent of you believe that teams are following the concussion protocol.
Speaker 1: Fifty three percent say that you don't think they are
Speaker 1: and frustrate you. That's what Florio says. I'm with the
Speaker 1: thirty pcent right now that say it is not being followed.
Speaker 1: But actually, when you want to be real with yourself.
Speaker 1: You are okay with it. We also go down now
Speaker 1: to Danny and the fantasy pit of misery, Dilly Dilly,
Speaker 1: to everybody in the hashtag stats over beat. Cipher want
Speaker 1: to find out what the people are saying. Because it's
Speaker 1: the freestyle, so I can handle anything. What are the
Speaker 1: people saying, Danny? Are they talking about the refs, the
Speaker 1: concussions or something else? Because it's the freestyle, I'm ready
Speaker 1: to talk anything. We're going for something else. Okay, what
Speaker 1: do we got? What are the people saying? First off,
Speaker 1: I want to I want to at least touch on
Speaker 1: some football stuff. We actually have some predictions, and not
Speaker 1: not so much predictions, but of other places that Bell
Speaker 1: could go to they'd like to see him. I think
Speaker 1: he could go to the Detroit Lions. He played at
Speaker 1: Michigan State. They have a stable quarterback entering his prime.
Speaker 1: That would be the only piece missing for the Detroit Lions.
Speaker 1: I think he could go there, But go ahead, we
Speaker 1: got Lance Davis same. Bell could go to the Bears.
Speaker 1: He could, but Jordan Howard is already there. I think
Speaker 1: these are more hopeful than could. And then we have
Speaker 1: a strong style Ninja saying Bill could go to the
Speaker 1: forty niners. Oh, that would be interesting. Carlos Hyde is
Speaker 1: a free agent. Imagine if Jimmy g Q and Levi
Speaker 1: on Bell were in the backfield for the up and
Speaker 1: coming San Francisco for Strong Style has been there a
Speaker 1: couple of times so far this week. I wonder if
Speaker 1: that is a shouldn't Ski Nakamura reference? I actually leave
Speaker 1: Shinska Nakamura a florio. What if I told you I
Speaker 1: think Shinsky Nakamura is the winner of the Royal Rumbull
Speaker 1: setting up a Nakamura aj Styles title match at russell Mania.
Speaker 1: That's what I think could in fact happen. Oh you agree? Really? Yes?
Speaker 1: Oh fantastic, fantastic. Ask ask our boys strong Style in
Speaker 1: the chat. If that's what he thinks? What else? Do
Speaker 1: we got anything else, Danny? Or is that all for today?
Speaker 1: That's pretty much it. I mean, we got a lot
Speaker 1: of people cheers into Ted Finn because Thursday, so we're
Speaker 1: cheers in. Fair enough, fair enough. A lot of people
Speaker 1: have been hitting me up with other reptiles. But then
Speaker 1: people are saying, listen, it's too cold in here for
Speaker 1: any reptile. I like the idea yesterday where a listener
Speaker 1: said we need to get a plaque here in the
Speaker 1: studio to honor Ted Finn Jr. And not necessarily replace
Speaker 1: him with another animal. Check it out tomorrow on the
Speaker 1: Fantasy Freestyle, we got a big show. Okay, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: be giving out a DFS lineup. Hey, Florio, are you
Speaker 1: still in the Fantasy pit of misery with us tomorrow? Yes?
Speaker 1: How about you doing DFS lineup on FanDuel. You want
Speaker 1: to do a DFS lineup with me and Ventra? Sure,
Speaker 1: I didn't have much success last week, That's all right,
Speaker 1: That's why we win it back, baby, So we're gonna
Speaker 1: be doing DFS lineups. I will give you my, in fact,
Speaker 1: my picks for divisional weekend. I agree with two of
Speaker 1: Zoe take the Points Garlicks picks. And we're also here
Speaker 1: from from some more kids that are picking the game.
Speaker 1: We're gonna have the old favorites that we had last week,
Speaker 1: excuse me, last year some of the people. And then
Speaker 1: also I believe that our boy, the analyst, Chris Ventra,
Speaker 1: will be back, so I'm gonna have to ask him
Speaker 1: about his lyricism that happened on the Fantasy Freestyle will
Speaker 1: juxtapose that against Cole Beasley, maybe Leavian at Bell as well.
Speaker 1: It'll be a fun football Friday. We put the fun
Speaker 1: in functional sports radio right here on the Fantasy Freestyle Shop.
Speaker 1: Boy Dain Martinez, speed and spitting statistician the Stable Genius,
Speaker 1: will be back tomorrow right here on the Fantasy Sports
Speaker 1: Radio Network. Have a good night.
