Speaker 1: Night Football between the Giants and the Lions. And I
Speaker 1: don't know, but if you were listening to this show,
Speaker 1: yesterday before Monday Night Football. Then you pretty much had
Speaker 1: that game cold. I told you about how much I
Speaker 1: like that Detroit Lions offense with Matthew Stafford and Jim
Speaker 1: Bob Cooterer. I told you about the proclivity of the
Speaker 1: tight end against the Giants defense, and Eric Ebron showed up,
Speaker 1: showed out, got you a touchdown. And I also told
Speaker 1: you about my concerns and fears for the New York
Speaker 1: Giants offense. I told you that offensive line was blunt, guts, trash,
Speaker 1: and everybody now knows it. But if you listen to speeds,
Speaker 1: you we were ahead of the game. You faded the Giant,
Speaker 1: you faded Eli Manning. Okay, And also I've been saying
Speaker 1: for a while now that Shane Vereen is the back
Speaker 1: to own in New York because it at PPR action. Well,
Speaker 1: he also led the team in rushing as well. So
Speaker 1: we're gonna be all right there. Okay. Like I said,
Speaker 1: we're gonna get into week three a little bit. You know,
Speaker 1: if we have time, we're gonna get into our game

Speaker 1: Our poll question for tonight, which of the top ads
Speaker 1: that are happening right now in Fantasy Football four Week
Speaker 1: three would you be most likely to spend your waiver
Speaker 1: priority or a big chunk of your fab budget on?
Speaker 1: My choices are Richard Higgins and the wide receiver of
Speaker 1: the Cleveland Browns. Is it Chris Thompson, the running back
Speaker 1: out there in Washington, or is it Chris Carson, the
Speaker 1: running back in Seattle who I believe has officially leap
Speaker 1: frogged Thomas Rawls in that depth chart for the Seahawks.
Speaker 1: We will find out. And like I said at the
Speaker 1: end of the show. You know what we do here
Speaker 1: on the Fantasy Freestyle. We also put the fun in
Speaker 1: functional sports radio. There's been a couple of interesting people
Speaker 1: athletes on Twitter uh lately that we got to talk
Speaker 1: about Kevin Durant and also Brandon Marshall after last night's game.
Speaker 1: It's kind of interesting. We'll get into that at the
Speaker 1: end of the show. We'll take your calls and we'll
Speaker 1: look ahead to we be three waiver wire ads and
Speaker 1: game previews when we come back. We're dropping stats over beat.

Speaker 1: Frank Stanfeld, Joe Galina, mom Man, Joe Pisa, Pilla and
Speaker 1: everybody giving you what you need to win your leagues
Speaker 1: and win that cash. Alright, let me give you some
Speaker 1: news and notes from around the NFL, and we start
Speaker 1: with Jordy Nelson, who remember was pulled in the first
Speaker 1: quarter of Sunday Night Football last week. They are saying
Speaker 1: he is fifty fifty for Sunday game at home against
Speaker 1: the Cincinnati Bengals because of that quad issue, he is
Speaker 1: fifty fifty if he does not go. I think it
Speaker 1: is a big time boost to guys like Davante Adams,
Speaker 1: guys like Martellis Bennett, and guys like Tie Montgomery. Ti Montgomery,
Speaker 1: who is right now the number two rated running back
Speaker 1: in all of fantasy football. In Cleveland, wide receiver Rashad Higgins,
Speaker 1: who is on our poll as one of the top
Speaker 1: waiver wire ads. This week, he is apparently being listed
Speaker 1: as a starter on the Cleveland Browns depth chart. I
Speaker 1: think that's very interesting because they have, in fact move
Speaker 1: Corey Coleman to I R. He has now broken his hand,
Speaker 1: and not one but two years in a row. It
Speaker 1: seems like it's gonna be Rashad Higgins as one of
Speaker 1: the starters. He even out snapped Kenny Britt last week. Okay,
Speaker 1: he got four snaps Kenny Britt only forty two. Maybe
Speaker 1: he's someone you can spend a little bit of fab
Speaker 1: budget on. We'll talk about that a little bit later.
Speaker 1: On Head coach of the Washington football team, Jay Gruden
Speaker 1: says that he's gotta be quote unquote, gotta be careful
Speaker 1: with Chris Thompson. Remember Chris Thompson blew up was a
Speaker 1: diamond in the rough and somebody that I've been telling
Speaker 1: you about, especially in PPR formats for a long time.
Speaker 1: But remember remember last week when I told you that
Speaker 1: Ron Rivera said that he didn't want to use up
Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey. He was like a new toy. You didn't
Speaker 1: want to use the batteries on. It's another one of
Speaker 1: these PPR kind of backs, okay, And you don't want
Speaker 1: to get them stressed too much. I'm thinking about guys
Speaker 1: like Danny Woodhead. I think about guys like Shane Vereen.
Speaker 1: I think about guys you know, like Pop Quiz or
Speaker 1: Charles Sims down in Tampa. Also. You like what they
Speaker 1: can do, but if you turn to if you use
Speaker 1: them a little too much, if you use them outside
Speaker 1: of their role, then they could get banged up, and
Speaker 1: that's not good for anybody. So that's what Jay Gruden
Speaker 1: is saying about Washington running back PPR stud Chris Thompson.
Speaker 1: I actually love the play next week of Chris Thompson
Speaker 1: against the Oakland Raiders at home on Sunday Night Football
Speaker 1: I think Chris Thompson will continue to return value for you,
Speaker 1: especially in PPR leagues. And remember those Raiders are bad
Speaker 1: against the past, all right. Also, unfortunately the Carolina Panthers
Speaker 1: have in fact moved greg Olsen their tight ends too
Speaker 1: injured reserve. I think on the first on the first
Speaker 1: thing is what does that mean for Carolina? For Carolina,
Speaker 1: I think it is a big boost to Kelvin Benjamin.
Speaker 1: Calvin Benjamin is one of these kind of off the
Speaker 1: radar guys who's always returning wide out two numbers at
Speaker 1: the end of the season and you don't really think
Speaker 1: about it. I think eve In more opportunities go Kelvin
Speaker 1: Benjamin's way with the loss of greg Olsen. The same
Speaker 1: can be said for Christian McCaffrey. And keep an eye
Speaker 1: out on the other rookies. The second round pick out
Speaker 1: of Ohio State, Curtis Samuel, I think he can start
Speaker 1: to grow an opportunity as well down there in Carolina.
Speaker 1: If you had Greg Olsen, though, and you need a
Speaker 1: tight end. Let me tell you something right now, in
Speaker 1: six of leagues only owned is Jack Doyle. You can
Speaker 1: get Jack Doyle and he's unowned in a third of
Speaker 1: leagues right now. Check him out. I think Jack Doyle
Speaker 1: could be someone you want, especially coming up this week
Speaker 1: they play the Cleveland Browns. You know that defense can
Speaker 1: be had, and Jack Doyle actually leads the Colts in targets,
Speaker 1: in receptions and receiving yards. If you need someone a
Speaker 1: little bit lower, tried Jesse James on the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Speaker 1: He's only owned in thirty five percent of league, so
Speaker 1: two thirds of you can go out and get Jesse James.
Speaker 1: He is moving to be the actual tight end option
Speaker 1: for Big ben and the Steelers. If you don't like that,
Speaker 1: only owned in a quarter of leagues. This Charles Clay
Speaker 1: out in Buffalo. Charles Clay could lead the Bills like
Speaker 1: he did last year in targets and catches. Check him out.
Speaker 1: And if you want to go real bargain basement, if
Speaker 1: you're in a real deep league, there's people have two
Speaker 1: tight ends on their roster. Check out Zach Miller on
Speaker 1: the Chicago Bears. Okay, with Jordan Howard Hurt. You know
Speaker 1: that their wide receiver corps has been decimated. Mike Glennon
Speaker 1: not getting a lot of time they want to check down.
Speaker 1: Think about Zach Miller on the Chicago Bears. Last note
Speaker 1: I want to give you here is that the Jaguars
Speaker 1: have claimed former Texans wide receiver Jalen Strong, the Arizona
Speaker 1: State product off of waivers. Okay, that is probably just
Speaker 1: a bench depth ad behind guys like Alan Hearns and
Speaker 1: market Um and Mark Easley. But remember Alan Robinson got
Speaker 1: injured in Week one. He tore his a c L
Speaker 1: is out for the rest of the year. So the
Speaker 1: Jags are getting Jalen Strong to kind of fill that need.
Speaker 1: All right, let's keep it moving here. On the fantasy freestyle,
Speaker 1: I told you about Monday Night football. I told you
Speaker 1: exactly how that was gonna go down. I called my shot.
Speaker 1: When it comes to the Giants offensive line and this
Speaker 1: dumpster fire of an offense with or without oh L Beckham,
Speaker 1: I think this is a problem, and I think this
Speaker 1: problem is going to continue. Did you see Eric Flowers
Speaker 1: last night left tackle for the Giants? And more noticeably,
Speaker 1: did you see Ziggy Ansa just completely eat his lunch
Speaker 1: play after play after play. They need to figure out something,
Speaker 1: whether it's a back chipping, whether it's them sliding the
Speaker 1: line that way to support Eric Flowers. Um they need
Speaker 1: to do something or maybe even just move Flowers to
Speaker 1: right tackle. I told you about this, and Ansa is
Speaker 1: a good pass rusher, but not a great one. Next week,
Speaker 1: the Giants go to Philadelphia to take on the Eagles,
Speaker 1: and one thing that the Eagles do well is rush
Speaker 1: the passer. Brandon Graham Fletcher Cox to be journe again
Speaker 1: there in the middle of that line. First round draft
Speaker 1: pick Derek Barnett. I am legitimately scared for the health
Speaker 1: of Eli Manning next week in the City of Brotherly Love.
Speaker 1: I also told you about Shane Vereen. Guys, Shane Vereen
Speaker 1: twenty eight rushing yards, but that led the Giants. You
Speaker 1: throw on another twenty seven pass and receiving yards. He
Speaker 1: gives about sixty yards in total the three catches. I
Speaker 1: think that's gonna continue. Paul Perkins seven night carries for
Speaker 1: ten yards, Dumpster Fire Orleans Dark War three carries seventeen
Speaker 1: yards trash. Okay, this is gonna be Shane Vereen's job
Speaker 1: before long. And your boys spitting speeds called that. Also,
Speaker 1: what's the deal with Brandon Marshall. Brandon Marshall now has
Speaker 1: been targeted five times in two games with the Giants,
Speaker 1: one of which Odell Beckham was not playing. What is
Speaker 1: his role on this team? You know? They also speculated
Speaker 1: that he just might be done. Remember two years ago
Speaker 1: he had under over a hundred catches. Last year for
Speaker 1: the Jetsy at fifty some odd catches, maybe he's just done,
Speaker 1: you know. And if that's the case, you need to
Speaker 1: find anybody that would take Brandon Marshall if he's on
Speaker 1: your roster. I think he is actually cutible. Brandon Marshall
Speaker 1: is cutible in my opinion. On the other side, listen, Detroit,
Speaker 1: they just didn't need to continue playing in the second half. Okay,
Speaker 1: they were grinding it down, trying to run out the clock.
Speaker 1: But Matthew Stafford continues to look like an elite quarterback.
Speaker 1: Amurale Ula looked good against this Giants defense, where I
Speaker 1: thought they were gonna be good against the run. But
Speaker 1: Amuradula had seventeen carries for eighty six yards. Theo rittick
Speaker 1: in the game as well, and Eric Ebron. I told
Speaker 1: you about how Eric Ebron was gonna eat because the
Speaker 1: Giants are struggle against the tight end. And Eric Ebron
Speaker 1: did that forty two yards on five catches and a touchdown.
Speaker 1: So if you had him in your lineup, he returned
Speaker 1: you double digit points. The last thing I'm gonna say,
Speaker 1: and this is the exact reason why we tell you
Speaker 1: to not go crazy and overreact. After week one, after
Speaker 1: week one, everybody's diamond in the rough was Kenny Golladay.
Speaker 1: And I was saying, you know what, hold tight on
Speaker 1: Kenny Galladay, because you got Golden Tate, you got Marvin Jones,
Speaker 1: you got Theo Rittick, you got Eric Ebron, you got
Speaker 1: a Mere Abdullah and you never know. I called this
Speaker 1: a fantasy whack a mole kind of pass offense, one
Speaker 1: of these offenses where the sum is greater than the parts.
Speaker 1: That's why I love Matthew Stafford, but not many of
Speaker 1: the individuals in the passing game. Yeah, Kenny Golla a
Speaker 1: one catch for eight yards. That is why we don't overreact.
Speaker 1: After week one, everybody was telling me, oh, I'm trying
Speaker 1: to trade for Kenny Dolladay. Oh, Daniel stupid. Why don't
Speaker 1: you get more Kenny Golladay. This is why he is
Speaker 1: still the third best wide receiver in that offense. And
Speaker 1: I didn't think it was gonna do that much. Okay,
Speaker 1: we got time we can go to the phone calls.
Speaker 1: It looks like we got a couple of callers lined up.
Speaker 1: Let's start it off right now. We got Step in Massachusetts.
Speaker 1: We're gonna take a couple of calls going into the break.
Speaker 1: Then we're gonna break down our ads and are drop,
Speaker 1: and then we'll go back to the callers a little
Speaker 1: bit later on. Our first call is Steve in Massachusetts.
Speaker 1: You're dropping stats over beats? My friend? How can we
Speaker 1: help you out? Do we have Steve? Sounds like we
Speaker 1: don't have Steve, So we keep it moving. We got
Speaker 1: time for one or two more calls. Let's talk about
Speaker 1: Blake in Houston. Blake in Houston, as a question about
Speaker 1: j J. Nelson, what's up, Blake? You're dropping stats over beats?
Speaker 1: You are on the fantasy freestyle? What's up? Man? Appreciate
Speaker 1: taking a phone call, man, I just want to know
Speaker 1: what j J? Just as overall value went up, I mean,
Speaker 1: it looks like Brown's gonna be out another week. So yeah,
Speaker 1: are you Are you asking because you have him already?
Speaker 1: Are you asking because you like want to maybe spend
Speaker 1: a waiver ad on him right now? Okay? So in
Speaker 1: that situation Here's what I'm gonna say, Blake. Here's what
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say, Blake for you, and thanks for the call.
Speaker 1: I appreciate the love. Um. I personally would not be
Speaker 1: spending my fab budget or my waiver priority on a
Speaker 1: guy like J J. Nelson, But if you have J J.
Speaker 1: Nelson ready on your bench, it's all good. Personally, I
Speaker 1: just don't believe in the Arizona Cardinals offense west Smoke
Speaker 1: John Brown is there or not, whether David Johnson is
Speaker 1: there or not. My thesis, and if you listen to
Speaker 1: the show before the season started, my thesis was that
Speaker 1: Carson Palmer was done as a quarterback okay, and now
Speaker 1: that David Johnson is not really there anymore, I think
Speaker 1: defenses are gonna try to protect against the past and
Speaker 1: load up to try and stop Carson Palmer. Yes. J J.
Speaker 1: Nelson is good for a bomb here or there, but
Speaker 1: I don't think that's something you should depend on week
Speaker 1: to week. If it's a bloom more bus play to
Speaker 1: have him in your lineups. I think you know Week
Speaker 1: two is the best week he's gonna have all season.
Speaker 1: Coming back. Will take some of your calls, and I'll
Speaker 1: tell you what I think about the most uh, most
Speaker 1: heavily added and drop players when we come back dropping
Speaker 1: stats over beats. It's the Fantasy Freestyle, the Fantasy Sports
Speaker 1: Radio Network, Hunter, Henry Sterling Shepherd, Michael Thomas. These three
Speaker 1: NFL software are not due to slump, They're due to
Speaker 1: break out. Just like the Fantasy Sports Radio Network in
Speaker 1: year two, things are only getting better. Make sure listen
Speaker 1: live and dell o the app f and t s
Speaker 1: Y Radio. It's free and it's twenty four seven. The
Speaker 1: best fantasy sports I'm ten. He's on the Fantasy Sports
Speaker 1: Radio Network. La La la. You know what it is?
Speaker 1: Why Dave Lrtinez speeds to spitting statistician holding you down
Speaker 1: on a Tuesday as we get ready for waiver wires
Speaker 1: to run tomorrow and get your team ready for Week
Speaker 1: three of the NFL and had a fantasy football season.
Speaker 1: One of the things we got up on Twitter as
Speaker 1: a poll question which top ad would you spend your
Speaker 1: you know, fab budget or your waiver priority on if
Speaker 1: you had the opportunity to for this week. My options
Speaker 1: for you are Richard Higgins and Cleveland, Chris Thompson and Washington.
Speaker 1: Chris Carson in Seattle, or someone else let us know.
Speaker 1: We already have hundreds of votes. So thanks to everybody
Speaker 1: who's chiming in on Twitter, at F and T s
Speaker 1: Y Radio. You can always follow me at spitting speeds
Speaker 1: as well. I'll be happy to try to help you out.
Speaker 1: Let me give you my take first on these these
Speaker 1: hop ads, some of the top drops that I'm seeing
Speaker 1: after week two, and then we're gonna get back to
Speaker 1: the phone lines. Okay, I see the phone lines are
Speaker 1: lightening up. My man, Chris bofone had taken care of you,
Speaker 1: the bounty hunter right there, keeping it so hot that
Speaker 1: we sweat steam, making us blow up like a Samsung seven.
Speaker 1: The top five ads that I've seen in season long leagues.
Speaker 1: The first thing we shard Higgins. I mentioned it at
Speaker 1: the top of the show. He's listed as a starter
Speaker 1: right now. You know, Corey Coleman is gone with that
Speaker 1: broken hand. He may be someone who's designated to return
Speaker 1: in about six to eight weeks, so keep an eye
Speaker 1: out on that. The real question to me is what's
Speaker 1: going on with Kenny Britt. Kenny Britt, like I said,
Speaker 1: was out snapped by Higgins last week, and Kenny Britt
Speaker 1: is just really not a part of this team. It
Speaker 1: almost seems as though the Browns are, you know, getting
Speaker 1: ready to cut Kenny Britt. I think Rashard Higgins could
Speaker 1: be a viable play. Here's the only problem. And if
Speaker 1: you listen to the show, you know my thesis. I
Speaker 1: am trying to stay away from these bad offenses altogether,
Speaker 1: and I think Cleveland is one of them. They haven't
Speaker 1: really gotten going. Isaiah A. Crow Well has not really
Speaker 1: gotten going, averaging only about thirty yards a game. So
Speaker 1: I don't know if you really can trust them. You
Speaker 1: know how dynamic this Brown's offense is. So if you
Speaker 1: want to spend on something like the Browns wide receiver,
Speaker 1: even if you think he is their number one wide
Speaker 1: receiver and the jury is out on that. But if
Speaker 1: you're gonna go ahead and pick up Rashard Higgins, you
Speaker 1: better be dropping someone else from one of these like
Speaker 1: quote unquote bad offenses or someone who is just out
Speaker 1: like a John Brown for example. Okay, Um, number two
Speaker 1: that I want to talk about, just like the caller
Speaker 1: just said, is J. J. Nelson. And here's the thing.
Speaker 1: I feel the same way. I believe this Cardinals offense
Speaker 1: is go is spiraling out of control and his blunt,
Speaker 1: guts trash, that's what I think it is. I think
Speaker 1: it's Carson Palmer and especially with no David Johnson. Okay,
Speaker 1: J J. Nelson is this kind of boom or bus
Speaker 1: kind of play. Uh Nelson is gonna be behind Larry
Speaker 1: Fitzgerald anyway, and I think he's touchdown dependent. Don't get
Speaker 1: me wrong. He blew up last week, had a great week,
Speaker 1: but again it was against the Indianapolis Colts pass defense.
Speaker 1: He's not going to see a tasty matchup like that
Speaker 1: from week to week. So I don't think J. J.
Speaker 1: Nelson is someone who I would invest in and think
Speaker 1: that he's gonna be a kind of week to week
Speaker 1: starter for me. Okay, if I'm going on the uh
Speaker 1: my fat budget on the waiver wire, I'm looking for
Speaker 1: someone who has the potential to be a starter for me,
Speaker 1: not only in by weeks, but like that I can
Speaker 1: actually use as a part of my team. Otherwise, I'm
Speaker 1: not wasting where I am on the list of priority. Okay,
Speaker 1: I'm waiting until I truly needed or unless your team
Speaker 1: was faced with an injury. Number three, however, is someone
Speaker 1: that I like, Okay, and it's Chris Thompson, the running
Speaker 1: back on the Washington football team. I've been telling you
Speaker 1: a few situations where I think the past catching back
Speaker 1: is the back to own. I told you about Shane
Speaker 1: Vereen on the Giants last week. I told you about
Speaker 1: how I think Buck Allen can overtake Terrence West. And
Speaker 1: I've also been telling you about Chris Thompson on Line
Speaker 1: Up Block Live Sunday in Week one. He was my
Speaker 1: diamond and the rough. I think that fat Rob Kelly
Speaker 1: is just a guy. I think that they don't really
Speaker 1: like some g P Ryan. He has not kind of
Speaker 1: come on in the way that people exp act. He
Speaker 1: struggled a little bit. I think that this Washington offense
Speaker 1: is also a volume passing game offense with Kirk Cousins,
Speaker 1: and Chris Thompson is the back to own. I know
Speaker 1: head coach John Jay Gruden said we gotta manage him,
Speaker 1: we gotta limit him a little bit. But that's because
Speaker 1: he's showing up as the best player on that roster
Speaker 1: in terms of the running backs. Okay, so I like
Speaker 1: Chris Thompson. If he's out there, I think he is
Speaker 1: someone that you can invest some of your fat budget.
Speaker 1: You can put in a waiver claim for Chris Thompson.
Speaker 1: The fourth biggest ad right now is Chris Carson and
Speaker 1: Boyd who I believe in this one. Okay, I do
Speaker 1: believe that Chris Carson has surpassed Eddie Lacy, has surpassed
Speaker 1: Thomas Rawls as the back in Seattle. The only problem
Speaker 1: is that that offensive line is gonna be bad all
Speaker 1: season long. I am. I'm encouraged by the fact that
Speaker 1: with that bad offensive line, Carson ran for over ninety
Speaker 1: yards last week, but that was at home against the
Speaker 1: bad San Francisco run defense. We'll see if he does
Speaker 1: it again. And there's also the chance that Thomas Rawls
Speaker 1: is just like rounding into form, rounding into game shape.
Speaker 1: You remember he missed Week one. But I do think,
Speaker 1: as I told you yesterday, one of my biggest takeaways
Speaker 1: is that running back is a young man's hustle. Carson
Speaker 1: is the young man in that group. So I do
Speaker 1: think Carson is worth a way of claim and worth
Speaker 1: an add The fifth highest added player right now, um
Speaker 1: is Jayson Twitten, the age old tight end out there
Speaker 1: in Dallas. Okay, and listen if you need him, because
Speaker 1: you know the lost Greg Olsen. Let's say, and he's
Speaker 1: on your way of wire, or Jimmy Graham continues to
Speaker 1: defecate the mattress for you in Seattle, and you think
Speaker 1: that you need to go a different direction. Sure, but
Speaker 1: let me tell you something. He right now. Listen, he
Speaker 1: had nine targets in week one, thirteen targets in week two.
Speaker 1: I don't know that that is sustainable. I think Jason
Speaker 1: Witten will regress back to his normal status, which is
Speaker 1: a kind of plotter, little move the chains guy, only
Speaker 1: as a security blanket when Dac needs it. I don't know.
Speaker 1: I think you know, weeks one and two was kind
Speaker 1: of the peak of what Jason Witten would be. But
Speaker 1: if you need him, go ahead and get them some
Speaker 1: of the drops, the top five drops. And I'm not
Speaker 1: talking about guys who got hurt. Okay, I'm not talking
Speaker 1: about Greg Olsen. I'm not talking about Corey Coleman. I'm
Speaker 1: talking about people that are still out there that have
Speaker 1: been dropped. The first is Kerwin Williams. Yeah, you need
Speaker 1: to drop Carlwin Williams. I'm telling you. My thesis is
Speaker 1: that the Arizona Cardinals offense is trash. It is a
Speaker 1: dumpster fire. And also I think on Chris Johnson, who
Speaker 1: they just you know, recently signed, but has been with
Speaker 1: that team before and he knows the scheme. I think
Speaker 1: Chris Johnson is ultimately going to be the number one
Speaker 1: running back that replaces David Johnson. And why are you
Speaker 1: gonna invest in the Cardinals anyway? Why are you gonna
Speaker 1: invest in anything in that Cardinals offense? They only it
Speaker 1: took them more than four quarters to put up like
Speaker 1: sixteen points against the Colts. Okay, so I would I would,
Speaker 1: I would drop them as well. The number two add
Speaker 1: and this hurts my heart. This hurts my heart. The
Speaker 1: number two, uh drop right now? Is my guy Boom
Speaker 1: boom bilal pal pal And I gotta tell you something.
Speaker 1: I understand. I understand he is firmly in that committee
Speaker 1: with Matt Forte and a lie to McGuire. The Jets
Speaker 1: are dog meet anyway, and there it seems like they
Speaker 1: are riding out Matt Forte. It seems like Matt Forte
Speaker 1: is getting more touches. I would not have thought that
Speaker 1: would be the case, but that was also the case
Speaker 1: early in the season last year. They used Forte a
Speaker 1: lot early in the season and by the middle and
Speaker 1: the end of the season, it was all balal Pow.
Speaker 1: I understand dropping balal Powell right now, but I personally
Speaker 1: would hold onto him because I actually think that this committee,
Speaker 1: I think Forte is gonna, you know, decrease, and I
Speaker 1: do think Powell will be a guy who you can
Speaker 1: have on your rosters. I understand dropping him now, but
Speaker 1: when he's in a three person committee with McGuire and
Speaker 1: how the Jets offense is so poor, but you know
Speaker 1: it hurts my heart. Um. The third biggest drop right now,
Speaker 1: and I definitely think you need to drop this guy
Speaker 1: is Legarrett Blunt in Philadelphia. Okay, LGBT has not been
Speaker 1: doing anything they like when those small Wood they like
Speaker 1: Darren Sprawls much better. It looks like Legarrett Bond has
Speaker 1: fallen off a cliff. He was doing things in that
Speaker 1: Patriots offense last year. It does him look like he's
Speaker 1: suited for this Philadelphia team. If you have the Garrett Blunt,
Speaker 1: you could try to flip him, try to trade him.
Speaker 1: Maybe someone respects the name value there, but I don't
Speaker 1: think that's the case. I think you need to move
Speaker 1: on from the Garrett Blunt. Number four on this list
Speaker 1: is Thomas Rawls, and I think this one is interesting.
Speaker 1: We talked about how Carson was one of the big
Speaker 1: time ads, so that's part of the reason why people
Speaker 1: maybe dropping Thomas Rawls, and I understand that. But here's
Speaker 1: the thing. Remember Rawls was injured, so maybe he's just
Speaker 1: rounding into form. Maybe this was like a preseason game
Speaker 1: for him. Okay, if I have if you have Thomas
Speaker 1: Rawls on your roster, I would wait one more week.
Speaker 1: I'd wait and see to see if this really is
Speaker 1: Carson's backfield, because you don't know. Yeah, the rookie just
Speaker 1: popped and had ninety plus yards in week two. But
Speaker 1: I would hold on to Thomas Rawls at least for
Speaker 1: another one or two weeks, just to see if this
Speaker 1: backfield really is, Like, is Carson really a bell cow workhorse.
Speaker 1: I'm not ready to say that just yet. I'd hold
Speaker 1: on to Thomas Rawls. And the fifth biggest drop is
Speaker 1: uh is Mr Hooper tight in Austin Hooper down in Atlanta.
Speaker 1: It's interesting. He had two targets in week one, and
Speaker 1: he had two targets in week two, but after week one,
Speaker 1: one of them was a touchdown, a seventies seven yard touchdown,
Speaker 1: and that helped out a lot of people all of
Speaker 1: a sudden. In Week two, he got us two touches,
Speaker 1: he got us two catches, but he only got like
Speaker 1: seven or eight yards. So that's why people are dropping him.
Speaker 1: I think there are other tight end options out there,
Speaker 1: and it does look like Austin Hooper is gonna be
Speaker 1: touchdown dependent, although in that Falcon's offense there's gonna be
Speaker 1: a lot of touchdown scored. Okay, So yeah, I understand
Speaker 1: dropping Hooper if you need another tight end or if
Speaker 1: you need the roster space, and because he is in
Speaker 1: fact touchdown dependent in my opinion. What I want to
Speaker 1: tell you about though, right now is the fantasy sports network.
Speaker 1: We are partnering with d k M S. I don't
Speaker 1: know if you know this already or not, but we're
Speaker 1: doing that to help fight blood cancer, okay. And the
Speaker 1: way it works is that if you go to Daily
Speaker 1: Roado dot com or if you go to Rhodo Experts
Speaker 1: dot com slash d k MS, what we're doing is
Speaker 1: we're putting out free entry daily fantasy contest every week
Speaker 1: of the football season, all right from weeks one through sixteen.
Speaker 1: Free to enter. You can compete, right, and if you win,
Speaker 1: you get entered into a DFS contest Week seventeen of
Speaker 1: the football season, okay, and there it's only gonna be
Speaker 1: a sixteen person contest. If you beat the other fifteen
Speaker 1: winners in week seventeen, you win two tickets to Super
Speaker 1: Bowl fifty two in Minnesota. Okay. And it's really great
Speaker 1: because as you go on, you're gonna learn a lot
Speaker 1: more about how you can flight fight blood cancer. And
Speaker 1: part of it is because you could be a donor.
Speaker 1: You could be a stem cell donor, you could be
Speaker 1: a blood donor, you could be a bone marrow donator,
Speaker 1: and that's really helpful with people who have this disease
Speaker 1: of blood cancer. And the people that they like the
Speaker 1: most to donate the blood bone marrow are actually guys
Speaker 1: between kind of like twenty and fifty. So it's a
Speaker 1: smart partnership for DKMS, the partner with the Fantasy Sports
Speaker 1: Network because that's what we do here. That is our
Speaker 1: demographic as well. It is a no Loue situation. My
Speaker 1: man Chris Bavona did it. He registered to become a
Speaker 1: blood donor. There it is drop a bomb on it.

Speaker 1: dropping stats over beats is the Fantasy Freestyle. My man
Speaker 1: Chris po Voner a bounty on on the ones and tools,
Speaker 1: making it so hot that we sweat steam. I told
Speaker 1: you a little bit about some injury updates. I told
Speaker 1: you about Monday night football, and I told you my
Speaker 1: take on the top waiver wire ads and drops as
Speaker 1: they run right now, probably on Wednesday morning, depending on
Speaker 1: your league. So I want to get you ready for that.
Speaker 1: We got a couple of calls on the line. Let's
Speaker 1: open up the phones and right now, if you want
Speaker 1: to hop on with speeds called now. The number of
Speaker 1: call is eight four four eight four three six eight
Speaker 1: seven nine, and we kick off this segment of the
Speaker 1: Fantasy Freestyle with who we're starting with. I believe we're
Speaker 1: starting with Mike in Chicago, Mike in Chicago. It sounds
Speaker 1: like you got a question about trading some running backs. Hey, Mike,
Speaker 1: you dropping the stats over beats on the fantasy freestyle.
Speaker 1: What's up? Yeah, bro, So I got I've got good
Speaker 1: running back. I've got my starters. It's DeVonta Freeman, Melpen
Speaker 1: Gordon's and at my flex I got Todd Gurley. So
Speaker 1: then on my bed I had Twik Cohen, Joe Mixon,
Speaker 1: and Derrick Henry. So I'm trying to get rid of
Speaker 1: the Cohen because I got I'm streaming a quarterback. So
Speaker 1: I'm trying to get a quarterback for Tweek Cohen. This
Speaker 1: is still there, all right. It sounds like you fell off,
Speaker 1: but let me help you out. Though you got Freeman, Gordon,
Speaker 1: and Girly as your top three. That is nice, okay,
Speaker 1: And you also have Mixing and Henry, and you mentioned
Speaker 1: Terreek Cohen as well. Uh, Terrick Cohen. I agree with you, man.
Speaker 1: I like what you're thinking. And uh, you know, if
Speaker 1: if if you're asking, I validate that, okay, Mike, I
Speaker 1: I I like what you're doing. And it here's the thing. Also,
Speaker 1: and says you're in Chicago, so I don't know who
Speaker 1: you're playing with. But if you're playing in a fantasy
Speaker 1: football league in Chicago, the people in your league probably
Speaker 1: want to get Terreek Cohen, right, So yeah, you said
Speaker 1: that you maybe wanted some quarterback help. Absolutely, I'd package
Speaker 1: your quarterback whoever that is, with Terek Cohen and see
Speaker 1: if you could upgrade at quarterback because you'll still have
Speaker 1: Freeman and Gordon and Girle that are studs, and you'll
Speaker 1: still have Mixing, who I believe is going to ascend
Speaker 1: under the new offensive coordinator in Cincinnati, and Derrick Henry
Speaker 1: as well. I hope you're hope that helps you out.
Speaker 1: I didn't get the end of your question, but I
Speaker 1: hope that helps you out. Mike, UM call that. Feel
Speaker 1: free to call it back if you want. We got
Speaker 1: Matt in Delaware. Matt Delaware has a question about who
Speaker 1: probably a guy that he spent his first round draft
Speaker 1: pick on and uh, you know is now on one
Speaker 1: of these bad offenses with bad offensive lines. We're talking
Speaker 1: about Odell Beckham. Matt and Delaware. You are on the
Speaker 1: Fantasy Freestyle. What's up, hey man? Thanks for having me on. Uh,
Speaker 1: I have O'Dell Beckham and you know he's He's cost
Speaker 1: me a couple of weeks with his injury and that
Speaker 1: his fault. You know, nothing can could be stopped from
Speaker 1: that happening. But I'm watching the Giants respected what you
Speaker 1: were saying last week, and I purposely didn't start O'Dell
Speaker 1: this week. Um, but I'm worried long term. I mean,
Speaker 1: should I look to trade O'Dell and maybe upgrade a
Speaker 1: running back position or something. And right now I have
Speaker 1: crow Well and Melvin Gordon. All right, um, and thanks
Speaker 1: for the calling, Matt, and I appreciate that you were listening. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I've been saying this for a little while, right, I've
Speaker 1: been saying that there is an impact to everybody and
Speaker 1: this Giant's offense. Let me let me tell you right now, Matt,
Speaker 1: the way I feel about this, Okay, And if you've
Speaker 1: been listening to the show, and it sound like you
Speaker 1: have him, and I appreciate it. When you lose a
Speaker 1: running back, you know, it's like next man up. When
Speaker 1: you lose your wide receiver, it's like next man up.
Speaker 1: But the same as not the case for the offensive line.
Speaker 1: If you look at some of these teams, the Cincinnati
Speaker 1: Bengals come to mind, the Seattle Seahawks come to mind.
Speaker 1: The New York Football Giants come to mind. This offensive
Speaker 1: line play is gonna be trash all season long. You
Speaker 1: saw you saw the game last night. Eli Manning has
Speaker 1: no time to throw, okay, and it's not like he's
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson with the escapability. I am concerned that this
Speaker 1: is going to put a damper on Odell's production. Now, Listen,
Speaker 1: Odell Beckham is a stud obviously, but you know, Matt,
Speaker 1: if you have other wide receivers that you could put
Speaker 1: in there, yeah, I wouldn't mind shopping Odell. I would
Speaker 1: imagine you mentioned Crowell as one of your backs. He's
Speaker 1: also underperformed, as you know, averaging about I think like
Speaker 1: thirty thirty five yards a game. See if you could
Speaker 1: package Odell and Crowell and get a true elite talent.
Speaker 1: You know when you're talking to about Odell and Crowell
Speaker 1: as a package, you could get the left Bells of
Speaker 1: the world. You can get the Julio Jones of the world.
Speaker 1: You can shoot for the moon and take on Antonio Brown.
Speaker 1: So yeah, I would see what is the market out
Speaker 1: there for Odell because I do believe that he is
Speaker 1: not going to perform like a top three wide out.
Speaker 1: The high ankle Sprain is something that can linger. But
Speaker 1: this Giant's offensive line in Eli Manning is a dumpster fire. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I would look to get away from that. Our next
Speaker 1: call Cliff in Boston. Cliff and Boston, friend of the show.
Speaker 1: We've been talking to him for a while. Cliff, you're
Speaker 1: dropping stats over beats on the Fantasy Freestyle. You got
Speaker 1: a question about Waivers that's gonna run tomorrow. What's up?
Speaker 1: How can I help you? Alright? Man, I got two
Speaker 1: quick questions for you. My first question, I just completed
Speaker 1: the trade. Want to hear your thoughts. Okay, So I'm
Speaker 1: gonna I'm gonna be sending over at James White, J. J.
Speaker 1: Nelson in return, I'm gonna beginning Kelvin Benjamin and Philip Rivers.
Speaker 1: Love it, love it, love it all right. First of all,
Speaker 1: let me tell you, let me tell you why. Okay. J. J.
Speaker 1: Nelson and just had his best game of the year. Man,
Speaker 1: he just had his best game of the year. And
Speaker 1: the Patriots running backs, I'm telling you it is a
Speaker 1: fool's errand to rely on anyone Patriots running back week
Speaker 1: to week. Kelvin Benjamin is actually someone who I think
Speaker 1: is going to ascend and get more opportunity now that
Speaker 1: Greg Olsen is out, and there's nothing wrong with Philip
Speaker 1: Rivers as one of your quarterbacks. I love that trade.
Speaker 1: Because I love that trade for you so much, you're
Speaker 1: gonna get a second question, man, How can I help you?
Speaker 1: What's Upcliff? Alright? Man? So in this same league that
Speaker 1: I'm talking and I'm number one right now in the
Speaker 1: waiver priority. Now, I don't really need to reach, but
Speaker 1: I do want to ask, do you think this week
Speaker 1: you know I should put in a waiver. I've got
Speaker 1: Chris Thompson available, I've got Buck Allen available, Chris Carson.
Speaker 1: Do you think those guys are worth the number one
Speaker 1: waiver priority? It's a tough question, man. Listen, here's the
Speaker 1: thing I don't know. I don't know about the rest
Speaker 1: of your running backs. Okay, I don't know about the
Speaker 1: rest of your running backs. But thanks for the call.
Speaker 1: You're talking about all these guys in the waiver while
Speaker 1: the Chris Thompson's, the Carsons of the world of Buck Allen,
Speaker 1: these are all running backs. The question is would they
Speaker 1: be weekend week out starters for you? You've already just traded, uh,
Speaker 1: James White, and you didn't get a running back back
Speaker 1: in that trade where it sounds like you got Rivers
Speaker 1: and Benjamin Back, so it sounds like you're dealing from
Speaker 1: a position of strength if you're okay, just trading James White.
Speaker 1: So without knowing more of it, and Cliff you could
Speaker 1: always call back later on in the week. But I personally,
Speaker 1: I would save that number one waiver priority. Okay. I
Speaker 1: think the number one waiver priority is a real asset.
Speaker 1: So unless you're in a situation where you need Chris Thompson,
Speaker 1: or you need Carson, or you need Buck Allen, because
Speaker 1: maybe you know you got a guy that hasn't performed well,
Speaker 1: like Isaiah Crowel, you've got a guy who got injured
Speaker 1: or something like that that you're worried about. Otherwise, I
Speaker 1: would hold on to the number one waiver priority and
Speaker 1: wait a little bit later on in the season when
Speaker 1: one of your guys goes down and you are in
Speaker 1: a position of need. You started by saying you are
Speaker 1: not in a position of needs. So because of that,
Speaker 1: I'd say hold onto the ass that that is the
Speaker 1: number one waiver priority. All Right, we got another caller
Speaker 1: it is John in North Carolina. John, and North Carolina
Speaker 1: has some questions. Let's get after it. John. You're dropping
Speaker 1: stats over beats on the Fantasy Freestyle. How can I
Speaker 1: help you? Oh? Man? So I got two questions for you.
Speaker 1: First one, it might sound a little crazy, but I'm
Speaker 1: thinking of dropping I'm stacked a wide receiver. So I'm
Speaker 1: thinking they're dropping Randall Cob for either Tyrok Cohen or
Speaker 1: Chris Carson. Uh. If you, if you are stacked at
Speaker 1: wide receiver, then I'm not mad at that at all. Okay.
Speaker 1: I don't know what stacked means to you, and we
Speaker 1: don't have time necessarily for you to read them all out.
Speaker 1: But if you believe you are stacked and Randall cop
Speaker 1: is like your fifth wide receiver, you know, here's what
Speaker 1: I'll say. Okay, Well, here's what I'll say is, first
Speaker 1: of all, check your studs wide receivers where you're all
Speaker 1: where you feel safe. Make sure all of their buys
Speaker 1: are on different weeks. Okay. And if that is the case,
Speaker 1: if you have say four wide receivers that are above
Speaker 1: Randall Cob and they all have different buys, which means
Speaker 1: you can plug in the fourth on for the bye
Speaker 1: weeks of all the other guys. If that is the case,
Speaker 1: then yes, go ahead and get yourself some Tarret Cohen. Okay,
Speaker 1: This Tarry Cohen kid is a thing. Jordan Howard is hurt,
Speaker 1: the Bears offense is trash, and Tarik Cohen leads in rushing, receiving, targets, receptions.
Speaker 1: He leads in every category. Okay, So yes, if your
Speaker 1: wide receivers are stacked and Randall cop is like your
Speaker 1: fifth or worst wide receiver, and the top four have
Speaker 1: different bye weeks, then go ahead and make that move
Speaker 1: and grab yourself Tarret Cohen. Okay. Um, thank you for
Speaker 1: a call, though, first time. I'm here from John in
Speaker 1: North Carolina. Hey, Chris, it sounds like we got some
Speaker 1: more calls, right, it sounds like we've got more calls.
Speaker 1: Our next caller's VJ in Texas. VJA Texas has some
Speaker 1: questions about ascending quarterbacks. Uh. VJ, you're on the Fantasy Freestyle.
Speaker 1: How can I help you? Hey man? How's it going?
Speaker 1: I love your show? An uh So, I got yeah,
Speaker 1: I got that question. First question actually two if you
Speaker 1: quickly answer it. One is, Um, I'm in the Standard
Speaker 1: League and I gotta stream a quarter rec this week
Speaker 1: because I have Mariota and I think he's gonna do
Speaker 1: well against seat level. So the streaming is either when
Speaker 1: Simeon or Cutler. And this is just for one week,
Speaker 1: just for this week, for one week, just this is
Speaker 1: one week, all right, just for this week. It is
Speaker 1: not Carson Wentz in my opinion, because that Giants secondary
Speaker 1: is good even though they did not show up or
Speaker 1: show out on Monday Night football. So I would not
Speaker 1: take Carson Wentz. Um Trevor Simeon is interesting. Um, I
Speaker 1: think Jay Carl. I think the Dolphins are gonna ride
Speaker 1: J G I E against the Jets this week. So
Speaker 1: of those, my pick would be Trevor Simeon because they're
Speaker 1: on the road, they're gonna have to throw. You got
Speaker 1: those whiteouts there in DT and Emmanuel Sanders and I
Speaker 1: think C. J. Anderson really opens up the passing game
Speaker 1: for Denver. So given those options and for a one
Speaker 1: week situation, I like Trevor Simeon, thank you so much.
Speaker 1: And my second questions is I gotta PPR league, have
Speaker 1: PPR league. I'm running three receivers and uh I got
Speaker 1: stepped on Diggs and I'm really worried that Bradford is
Speaker 1: not gonna play this week. So if I had to
Speaker 1: put step On Diggs in my um in in my
Speaker 1: slot or my flex slot position, yeah, my flex position,
Speaker 1: would I run Derrick Henry, Cooper, Cup, your buddy, Jackies
Speaker 1: Rogers or um Yeah, those are the three. You know
Speaker 1: my answer, man, You already know my answer. Come on,
Speaker 1: now we're gonna pop quiz jock. Quiz man. I think
Speaker 1: the Stefon Diggs. Listen, listen, man, I have Stefan Diggs
Speaker 1: in my own season long league, okkay, and I here's
Speaker 1: what I'll tell you. I do think the loss of
Speaker 1: Bradford impacts Digs the most on that team. Feeling is
Speaker 1: still gonna get his catches as a slot under the
Speaker 1: radar guy, Dalvin Cook is still going to get his work,
Speaker 1: and Kyle Rudolph is still going to get his work
Speaker 1: as well. Rudolph the red zone reindeer. I got them
Speaker 1: from a man, Cory Parson. I think that impacts Digs
Speaker 1: the most as a down the field outside guy, but
Speaker 1: it is not Derrick Henry. He had a great game,
Speaker 1: but that was because DeMarco Murray had a hamstring injury.
Speaker 1: You know, it. It's my man, pop Quiz Jocquiz Rogers,
Speaker 1: and they're gonna be in a more competitive game, so
Speaker 1: I think they're gonna use Jacquiz Rodgers for the entire game.
Speaker 1: Thanks for the call, though, everybody else, I'm gonna try
Speaker 1: and get you if I can when we come back
Speaker 1: right here, dropping stats over beats. It's the Fantasy Freestyle
Speaker 1: right here on the award winning Fantasy Sports Radio Network,
Speaker 1: Fantasy Freestyle. Unfortunately, the Carolina Panthers have in fact moved
Speaker 1: Greg Olsen their tight end to injured reserve. I think
Speaker 1: it is a big boost to Kelvin Benjamin. Kelvin Benjamin
Speaker 1: is one of these kind of off the radar guys
Speaker 1: who's always returning white out two numbers at the end
Speaker 1: of the season and you don't really think about it.
Speaker 1: I think even more opportunities go Kelvin Benjamin's way with
Speaker 1: the loss of Greg Olsen. The same can be said
Speaker 1: for Christian McCaffrey. And keep an eye out on the
Speaker 1: other rookies. Second round pick out of Ohio State, Curtis Samuel,
Speaker 1: weekdays from seven to eight pm e stern on the
Speaker 1: Fantasy Radio Network. This is serious. You should have a
Speaker 1: healthy fear of us. What's the rhymes? As we come
Speaker 1: back for here dropping stats over beats on a Fantasy
Speaker 1: Freestyle and the award winning Fantasy Sports Radio Network, on
Speaker 1: I Heart Radio, on tune In Radio, and on the
Speaker 1: Fantasy Sports Network YouTube Live. Uh, we're trying to hold
Speaker 1: you down, getting you ready for waiver wires and for
Speaker 1: NFL and Fantasy Football Week three. Thanks to everybody who
Speaker 1: called in at eight four, four, eight four or three six,
Speaker 1: eight seven nine. We don't have time for any more
Speaker 1: callers unfortunately this episode. Blake and Dallas, I see you.
Speaker 1: You're asking me about selling high on Todd Gurley. I
Speaker 1: wouldn't do that. I like Todd Gurley. I think it
Speaker 1: remains for the entire season. I think the addition of
Speaker 1: the wide receivers on the outside, the development of Jared
Speaker 1: Goff helps Uh, Todd Gurley. Allen in New York City,
Speaker 1: Steve out there in Canada, Hey, Steve, you're asking about
Speaker 1: t Y Hilton. I'm fading t Y Hilton. I think
Speaker 1: this Colts offense is trashed, and I don't think Andrew
Speaker 1: sees the field for a long time, if at all
Speaker 1: this year. But if you have more questions. You can
Speaker 1: holler at me on Twitter at spitting speeds is the
Speaker 1: handle follow me? Asked me questions, I try to hit
Speaker 1: you up. We asked you a question out there. We
Speaker 1: asked you which waiver wire ad would you go first with?
Speaker 1: And sixty three percent of you say Chris Carson, the
Speaker 1: running back in Seattle. I do believe he's leap frog
Speaker 1: Thomas Rawls and Eddie Lacey, but I would give it
Speaker 1: a little while. I wouldn't drop Thomas Rawls just yet.
Speaker 1: Remember he was dealing with that injury. As he gets
Speaker 1: into game shape, he may form a committee with Carson.
Speaker 1: All Right, I Wannah. I want to tell you about
Speaker 1: two stories that I thought were very very interesting, real quick,
Speaker 1: we have time. The first is I don't know if
Speaker 1: you saw this, but you know there are two Brandon
Speaker 1: Marshalls in the NFL, and a lot of people were
Speaker 1: trolling Brandon Marshall on the Giants after his performance yesterday
Speaker 1: and Monday Night Football. Brandon Marshall the other Brandon Marshall
Speaker 1: quote unquote on the Denver Broncos he was responding to people,
Speaker 1: and he was responding to people in a kind of
Speaker 1: like combative way. I thought it was very, very funny.
Speaker 1: Brandon Marshall, the linebacker on the Denver Broncos, responded to
Speaker 1: people saying, Yo, f the Giants, he said, and people
Speaker 1: thought it was Brendan Marshall, the wide receiver on the Giants.
Speaker 1: He responded to another guy, Yo, meet me in the
Speaker 1: parking lot after the game, because it is crazy if
Speaker 1: you think, actually Brandon Marshall the wide receiver is going
Speaker 1: to do that um with fans. And also he said, uh,
Speaker 1: come say that to my face to someone else who
Speaker 1: was trolling Brandon Marshall the wide receiver and just got
Speaker 1: it wrong. Make sure you know who you're actually trolling
Speaker 1: if you're gonna do that. Okay, I remember that same
Speaker 1: thing happened with LaVar Ball a few months ago. The
Speaker 1: other thing I wanted to tell you real quick before
Speaker 1: we get out of here on Fantasy Freestyle on a
Speaker 1: Tuesday is I don't know if you saw this, but
Speaker 1: I remember I was talking to you about that fight
Speaker 1: in the Desert on Saturday Triple G and Canelo Alvarez,
Speaker 1: and I told you about how Adelaide Bird scored the
Speaker 1: fight ten rounds to two for Canelo Alvabrez and how
Speaker 1: it made me feel dirty. It made me feel like
Speaker 1: while I saw a good fight and I could see
Speaker 1: how people would call it a draw. I thought Triple
Speaker 1: G one slightly um that the one eighteen to one
Speaker 1: ten score was absolutely ridiculous, and I was saying that
Speaker 1: Adelaide Bird was either on the take or needs to
Speaker 1: like go away, We'll check this out. Adelaide Bird has
Speaker 1: been forced to stand down as a judge, as a
Speaker 1: judge that scores fights in the state of Nevada. I
Speaker 1: think that's very interesting because of all this kind of backlash.
Speaker 1: In fact, Adelaide Bird has been told to stand down
Speaker 1: as a judge will not be judging world class fights
Speaker 1: anymore for the foreseeable future in Vegas. I formally tip
Speaker 1: my cap to whatever the boxing commission is out there
Speaker 1: in Vegas that decided to do that, because I agree
Speaker 1: it is a stain on the sport where the best
Speaker 1: fight the sport could make. Right now, people are leaving
Speaker 1: with a bad taste in their mouth, even though they
Speaker 1: saw a good fight, because they're just thinking that the
Speaker 1: game is rigged and boxing was fixed. So I appreciate
Speaker 1: that that move happened. Maybe when they have the rematch,
Speaker 1: which I believe will be on Sinkle the Mile two
Speaker 1: thousand eighteen in Las Vegas. Maybe it'll be on the
Speaker 1: up and up. Not say it wasn't, but this score
Speaker 1: from Adelaide Bird made it look like it wasn't. Come
Speaker 1: on back tomorrow Fantasy Freestyle. After waiver wires have run,
Speaker 1: We'll talk about free agent pickups, who to add, who
Speaker 1: to drop, who to trade for, and I'll start to
Speaker 1: preview game by game as we look ahead to Week
Speaker 1: three of the NFL season. If I didn't get to
Speaker 1: you on the phone, holler at me on Twitter at
Speaker 1: Spitting Speeds and we'll be back here tomorrow from seven
Speaker 1: a p m. Eastern Time, dropping status over beats. It's
Speaker 1: a Fantasy Freestyle on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network.
