We got a 0:01:09.840 --> 0:01:12.880 couple of pole questions up there for you guys on 0:01:12.920 --> 0:01:15.280 the show. Now that the dust has settled, Remember we 0:01:15.319 --> 0:01:20.479 had a hot, scalding uh NFL draft coverage last week. 0:01:21.040 --> 0:01:22.920 Now that the dust has settled a little bit, you know, 0:01:23.040 --> 0:01:25.720 we heard about Jamal Charles going to Denver. It makes 0:01:25.720 --> 0:01:29.400 me wonder there are still some quarterbacks out there that are, 0:01:29.520 --> 0:01:33.000 you know, readily available. We know the situation with Colin 0:01:33.080 --> 0:01:35.240 Kaepernick and how he's you know, I think he's been 0:01:35.280 --> 0:01:38.520 blacklisted in blackballed collusion. But we can get into that 0:01:38.520 --> 0:01:42.000 at another time. There's Jay Cutler, who's you know, chilling 0:01:42.080 --> 0:01:45.640 naked on the beach somewhere. You know, is he still 0:01:46.440 --> 0:01:49.160 able to be maybe be a backup somewhere. There's r 0:01:49.240 --> 0:01:51.040 G three who's still looking for a job. What is 0:01:51.040 --> 0:01:53.400 the right kind of situation for them? And don't forget 0:01:53.440 --> 0:01:56.400 about a guy named Ryan Fitzpatrick j E. T s 0:01:56.480 --> 0:01:59.960 Jets Jet Jets fans. If we're talking about a teaching role, 0:02:00.480 --> 0:02:03.080 a backup job, So the question is which of those 0:02:03.080 --> 0:02:07.200 four quarterbacks do you think we'll get a job. First. 0:02:07.360 --> 0:02:11.440 We're also with my boy Donnie Burns, the NBA expert 0:02:11.760 --> 0:02:14.680 correspondent for the Fantasy Freestyle. We're gonna talk a little 0:02:14.680 --> 0:02:17.959 bit more of NBA Playoffs. What happened in Boston Garden 0:02:18.040 --> 0:02:23.440 with Isaiah Thomas going off. Okay, whether it's whether it's 0:02:23.440 --> 0:02:26.160 a flight he's gotta take, it's his sister, it's a tooth. 0:02:26.440 --> 0:02:28.919 He is just showing why he is maybe the most 0:02:28.919 --> 0:02:31.560 clutch performer in this NBA Playoffs. We're gonna have a 0:02:31.600 --> 0:02:33.560 lot of fun, talk a lot of stuff. Come all 0:02:33.639 --> 0:02:36.120 right back after the break, we're gonna get into the 0:02:36.120 --> 0:02:38.120 starting lineup. I'm gonna give you a little bit more 0:02:38.160 --> 0:02:40.760 thoughts of what's going down in Fenway between the Orioles 0:02:40.919 --> 0:02:43.280 and the rod Socks as well. Fish your boy, Dame 0:02:43.320 --> 0:02:46.600 Martinez speeds the spitting Statistician. You're listening to the Fantasy 0:02:46.639 --> 0:03:01.680 Freestyle here on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. Donny Burns 0:03:01.680 --> 0:03:04.200 over here making me want to jump jump just like Buffs. 0:03:04.240 --> 0:03:08.240 The rhymes must the rhymes. It's your boy, Dane Martinez Speeds, 0:03:08.280 --> 0:03:11.000 the spitting statistician. You're listening to the fantasy Freestyle here 0:03:11.280 --> 0:03:13.600 on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. Let me get into 0:03:13.600 --> 0:03:16.280 my starting line up with you real quick. I want 0:03:16.280 --> 0:03:17.919 to give you some news and note here around Major 0:03:17.960 --> 0:03:22.520 League Baseball, this has been This is an especially painful day. 0:03:22.560 --> 0:03:24.800 I have a lot of injuries to report and a 0:03:24.840 --> 0:03:27.680 lot of arms. And if you remember, I've been telling you. 0:03:27.720 --> 0:03:30.320 I even wrote it in Benny Richardi's Guide Definitive Guide 0:03:30.360 --> 0:03:33.400 to Fantasy Baseball. I told you to not spend up 0:03:33.480 --> 0:03:36.040 for the pitching because you would be really, really upset 0:03:36.080 --> 0:03:39.040 when they inevitably go on the d L. Well, with 0:03:39.120 --> 0:03:42.560 that in mind, Texas starting pitcher Cole Hamills he's going 0:03:42.600 --> 0:03:45.240 on the d L with an oblique injury, Corey Kluver, 0:03:45.640 --> 0:03:47.800 the Indians Ace going on the d L with a 0:03:47.920 --> 0:03:51.160 back injury, Edison Volkes going on the d L with 0:03:51.200 --> 0:03:53.280 a blister issue. This may be more of one of 0:03:53.320 --> 0:03:56.040 those ten day things where he really only misses a 0:03:56.200 --> 0:03:59.120 start or two. And Noah synder Guard going for a 0:03:59.160 --> 0:04:02.360 second opinion, are now saying that that injury could be 0:04:02.480 --> 0:04:06.240 three plus months. That was quick, very similar to how 0:04:06.240 --> 0:04:08.720 what Madison bum Gardner had his injury. There was one 0:04:08.720 --> 0:04:11.840 projection then all of a sudden had changed two months, 0:04:12.000 --> 0:04:16.360 very very quickly, And I'm not done. A's place one 0:04:16.440 --> 0:04:19.400 of their closers, Sean Doolittle on the d L as 0:04:19.480 --> 0:04:23.320 well with a shoulder injury, and Miguel Cabrera may have 0:04:23.440 --> 0:04:26.240 reinjured his groin and his first game back for the 0:04:26.279 --> 0:04:30.000 Tigers against the Indians yesterday, he left in the eighth inning. 0:04:31.160 --> 0:04:34.560 Let's get some good news, all right. Cuban nineteen year 0:04:34.560 --> 0:04:37.520 old Cuban import Luis Robert looks like he worked out 0:04:37.520 --> 0:04:40.760 for the San Diego Padres yesterday. Maybe he will be 0:04:40.800 --> 0:04:44.240 signing with team sometime soon. And also Clay Bellinger and 0:04:44.560 --> 0:04:47.080 uh Corey Bellinger excuse me, Clay was his dad, former 0:04:47.160 --> 0:04:50.400 Yankee has been very, very impressive. The question is will 0:04:50.440 --> 0:04:53.560 he stick with Jack Peterson coming back off the d 0:04:53.760 --> 0:04:56.719 L looking like this weekend. I have a creative solution 0:04:57.000 --> 0:04:59.080 and it's the same creative solution I offered to the 0:04:59.120 --> 0:05:03.600 Mets with regard to Michael Confordo. I said that they 0:05:03.640 --> 0:05:07.000 needed to, you know, not only utilize that crowded outfield, 0:05:07.040 --> 0:05:09.520 they needed to utilize that first base spot. And like 0:05:09.560 --> 0:05:12.120 you've seen with the Mets, they moved j Bruce to 0:05:12.200 --> 0:05:14.159 play a little bit of first base to clear the 0:05:14.160 --> 0:05:17.760 way for Michael Confordo. Obviously, injuries the guys like Cespitis 0:05:17.800 --> 0:05:21.200 and Dudah did not hurt. But if you're the Dodgers, 0:05:21.880 --> 0:05:25.560 what about considering first base and letting Bellinger play a 0:05:25.560 --> 0:05:27.800 little bit there to spell a gone I think you 0:05:27.839 --> 0:05:30.960 could have the same effect, and Conforto has certainly proven 0:05:31.000 --> 0:05:33.880 dividends for the Mets. Belinger, along with Peterson, couldn't do 0:05:33.920 --> 0:05:38.120 the same thing for the Dodgers. Keeping it moving. As 0:05:38.120 --> 0:05:40.360 we talk about the starters that I gave you last 0:05:40.440 --> 0:05:42.080 night in DFS, remember I tell you the way to 0:05:42.080 --> 0:05:44.440 win that cash is by going into the starters. I 0:05:44.440 --> 0:05:47.200 gave you James Paxton. He had six k's, did not 0:05:47.240 --> 0:05:49.280 get the quality start, though still gave you about thirty 0:05:49.360 --> 0:05:51.640 thirty Fantasy points. That was good enough for me, at 0:05:51.720 --> 0:05:54.159 least in my lineups. Tanaka, I told you I like, 0:05:54.560 --> 0:05:57.039 so he gotta win, but only when six and a 0:05:57.160 --> 0:05:59.680 third innings did only strike out four. But with that 0:05:59.720 --> 0:06:02.400 win made it look good for you if you were 0:06:02.400 --> 0:06:04.839 in cash games, probably I told you who not. I 0:06:04.839 --> 0:06:06.880 told you I was trying to fade Corey Klueber because 0:06:06.880 --> 0:06:09.440 he was too expensive and he got rocked. Is all 0:06:09.480 --> 0:06:11.839 the more evidence that you can try to beat the 0:06:11.880 --> 0:06:15.000 top at times if you have a stud that you 0:06:15.040 --> 0:06:18.279 truly like, like I did. Like Paxton today. On the 0:06:18.279 --> 0:06:21.600 flip side, I think you gotta go with Jake Garrietta. 0:06:22.520 --> 0:06:25.400 I like Jake Garrietta, even though he's ten thousand, one hundred, 0:06:25.440 --> 0:06:27.360 I do pay up for him today. There are a 0:06:27.440 --> 0:06:30.240 lot of kind of like wishywashy options to me, and 0:06:30.320 --> 0:06:32.839 so I like. I like looking at Vegas and what 0:06:32.960 --> 0:06:35.200 Vegas told me what that the Cubs tonight were minus 0:06:35.240 --> 0:06:39.000 one ninety favorites. That looks good for Jake Arietta. And 0:06:39.040 --> 0:06:41.479 also the over under on this game is only seven, 0:06:41.880 --> 0:06:44.440 making everybody think that it was gonna be a low total. 0:06:44.560 --> 0:06:49.599 I like Jake Arietta. Um, my boy, Robbie ray Is 0:06:49.600 --> 0:06:52.599 is starting tonight. He's been my boy. I like what 0:06:52.640 --> 0:06:54.560 the left he has done with his k upside, But 0:06:54.760 --> 0:06:58.160 unfortunately tonight he's going up against the Washington Nationals in 0:06:58.279 --> 0:07:03.360 our nation's capital. And now that lineup is sick. Okay, 0:07:03.400 --> 0:07:05.440 that Washington lineup theyre putting up. Remember they put up 0:07:05.480 --> 0:07:08.760 twenty three runs over the weekend. So I would stay 0:07:08.760 --> 0:07:11.280 away from that. But here's where I would go. There's 0:07:11.280 --> 0:07:14.280 another starter in that game. What about National starter Geo 0:07:14.320 --> 0:07:19.440 Gonzalez at eight hundred. I know he's not sexy. I 0:07:19.480 --> 0:07:21.480 know he's not something that moves the needle, but he 0:07:21.520 --> 0:07:23.400 does have a one point six to e r A 0:07:24.440 --> 0:07:27.440 so far this season. He does have five quality starts 0:07:27.440 --> 0:07:31.440 in a row. He has earned you over thirty nine 0:07:31.520 --> 0:07:34.280 points a start on Fandel, scoring four of his last 0:07:34.320 --> 0:07:37.240 five starts. And I told you about this. I like 0:07:37.320 --> 0:07:40.680 what happens in Vegas. The Nationals are minus one forty 0:07:40.880 --> 0:07:43.920 right now as the game gets going. So I like 0:07:44.000 --> 0:07:47.400 Arietta tonight as the stud But uh, if you're trying 0:07:47.440 --> 0:07:51.679 to beat him, consider Geo Gonzalez at eighty nine hundred. 0:07:51.800 --> 0:07:53.920 But here's what I gotta do. I gotta talk to 0:07:53.960 --> 0:07:57.040 you guys about you know, what's going on in Fenway. 0:07:58.080 --> 0:08:03.960 And uh, here's the deal. There's the whole you know, 0:08:04.080 --> 0:08:08.760 subtext about you know what I believe has just you know, 0:08:08.960 --> 0:08:12.880 kind of in essence been emboldened in this country in 0:08:12.960 --> 0:08:17.040 the last oh, I don't know, call it six months. 0:08:18.080 --> 0:08:22.160 But uh, as I said before, we can't be desensitized 0:08:22.200 --> 0:08:24.160 to this, Okay. So I think it's good that it's 0:08:24.200 --> 0:08:26.320 in the public conversation. I think it's good that people 0:08:26.320 --> 0:08:30.520 like C. C. Sabathia and others are coming out and 0:08:30.560 --> 0:08:32.800 saying that this is something that they confront, this is 0:08:32.840 --> 0:08:35.440 something they deal with. I think it's good, you know, 0:08:35.559 --> 0:08:37.800 the kind of the way the Red Sox responded, But 0:08:38.360 --> 0:08:40.559 it's not enough to have this be a one time thing. 0:08:40.600 --> 0:08:44.079 And I really don't think it should be desensitized. We 0:08:44.080 --> 0:08:46.640 should become immune to this as a society. I drew 0:08:46.640 --> 0:08:49.679 the parallel to soccer houliganism and the other show, and 0:08:49.720 --> 0:08:51.840 I do believe that this is not okay, and this 0:08:51.920 --> 0:08:54.800 has recently been emboldened. But I talked about it a 0:08:54.840 --> 0:08:56.520 little bit yesterday. So I want to talk about this 0:08:56.520 --> 0:08:59.200 other thing, the pure beef between the Orioles and the 0:08:59.240 --> 0:09:02.040 Red Sox. And Yo, Donnie, we have a clip here 0:09:02.720 --> 0:09:05.760 of what Manny Machado was saying. He went off, he 0:09:05.840 --> 0:09:08.520 was thrown at again by Chris Sale. I want to 0:09:08.600 --> 0:09:10.760 let you guys hear what Machado had to say, but 0:09:10.800 --> 0:09:12.480 I don't want to kind of chronicle this and talk 0:09:12.520 --> 0:09:14.839 about like when will it stop? And what are the 0:09:14.920 --> 0:09:17.440 unwritten rules of baseball around this? So, Donnie, can we 0:09:17.440 --> 0:09:19.760 play that Manny Machado clip from post game last night? 0:09:20.320 --> 0:09:23.240 Go ahead, hit me, you know, I don't let them 0:09:23.320 --> 0:09:26.400 keep lingering around and you know, keep trying to hit 0:09:26.440 --> 0:09:31.120 people less, and we should do something about hit the 0:09:31.160 --> 0:09:33.120 pictures out there with balls in their hands, throwing a 0:09:33.160 --> 0:09:35.600 hundred months power trying to hit people. I got that too. 0:09:35.600 --> 0:09:37.400 I could go up there and and and crush somebody, 0:09:37.640 --> 0:09:39.840 but wanted to. But you know what, I'll get suspended 0:09:39.880 --> 0:09:42.280 for the year and the pictures don't get suspended for 0:09:42.320 --> 0:09:45.079 two games. That's that's that's that's not that's not cool. 0:09:45.280 --> 0:09:47.040 That's not cool. What do you think that keep pinking? 0:09:49.360 --> 0:09:50.760 I don't know. That's not my I mean, that's not 0:09:50.800 --> 0:09:52.360 my call. I mean, not play baseball. I thought I 0:09:52.360 --> 0:09:55.240 could control so um, you know, they got down something 0:09:55.240 --> 0:09:58.160 about it. I mean, you're gonna hear somebody go ahead him, 0:09:58.200 --> 0:10:01.160 hit him. But what think they've continuing to do this? 0:10:01.320 --> 0:10:04.120 I don't know, I mean going after them well actually 0:10:04.080 --> 0:10:05.719 that that side on the other side, I don't know. 0:10:05.800 --> 0:10:09.080 I mean, I mean, for me, as I see it 0:10:09.160 --> 0:10:11.880 is that I I slid into second base normal and 0:10:11.920 --> 0:10:14.280 then I, you know, kind of hurt someone a little bit, 0:10:14.400 --> 0:10:17.920 you know, unintentional. I grabbed them after after the matter 0:10:17.920 --> 0:10:20.000 of fact, and uh, you know they're still they're still 0:10:20.040 --> 0:10:21.880 trying to pay pay pay the piper. I don't know 0:10:21.920 --> 0:10:23.240 what they're trying to pay for. I don't know. I 0:10:23.280 --> 0:10:26.520 don't know what their mindset is. So I mean whatever, 0:10:26.559 --> 0:10:28.360 I'm I'm just gonna keep playing baseball, doing doing what 0:10:28.400 --> 0:10:30.160 I gotta do, keep winning games out here, keep playing 0:10:30.160 --> 0:10:36.440 for my team. And that's yo. Machado was clearly over 0:10:36.480 --> 0:10:39.000 the moon piste off with the Boston Red Sox, and 0:10:39.040 --> 0:10:40.520 I gotta tell you something, I think he makes a 0:10:40.520 --> 0:10:43.160 couple of good points. First of all, this whole thing 0:10:43.240 --> 0:10:45.280 started a couple of weeks ago when Machado slid hard 0:10:45.280 --> 0:10:47.440 at the second base he got into Padroia. A lot 0:10:47.480 --> 0:10:48.920 of people may have thought it was a hard slide 0:10:49.000 --> 0:10:52.240 or a late slide, but Patroya himself didn't say much 0:10:52.280 --> 0:10:54.280 that this happens, I get slide into It wasn't that 0:10:54.320 --> 0:10:58.480 big of a deal. And apparently Jones excuse me. Machado 0:10:58.679 --> 0:11:02.400 and Pedroia exchange text afterwards, like, you know, kind of apologetic, 0:11:02.600 --> 0:11:06.280 kind of calm the nerves. The next day, Matt Barnes 0:11:06.320 --> 0:11:11.880 throws behind uh Mannie Michado. Then now sail throws behind 0:11:11.960 --> 0:11:14.920 Mannie Michado added all the all the stuff that Adam 0:11:15.000 --> 0:11:17.560 Jones has been facing you know, and and and the 0:11:17.640 --> 0:11:20.280 question I think Machado asked is right, like, at one point, 0:11:20.320 --> 0:11:22.800 I get it, okay, you you you brushed someone back, 0:11:22.880 --> 0:11:25.160 or you even plunk someone, But that's like one time. 0:11:25.600 --> 0:11:28.600 They've been doing this consistently, and I think, you know, 0:11:29.200 --> 0:11:31.600 Machado brought up the fact that he's got the picture 0:11:31.600 --> 0:11:34.040 as a weapon, throwing a rock ninety miles an hour 0:11:34.080 --> 0:11:36.000 in essence, but he couldn't go out there charging with 0:11:36.040 --> 0:11:38.800 a bat. Interestingly enough, though, Machado is a guy who 0:11:38.880 --> 0:11:41.480 remember a few years ago, threw his bat down the 0:11:41.520 --> 0:11:44.640 third baseline. He said it was unintentional as well, but 0:11:44.760 --> 0:11:47.000 that started a little bit of beef. Remember when he 0:11:47.040 --> 0:11:48.880 was with the Oakland A's I think it was with 0:11:49.000 --> 0:11:51.960 Josh Donaldson literally using the bat as a weapon. So 0:11:52.040 --> 0:11:55.720 Machado is g you know, he's not joking with all this. 0:11:56.000 --> 0:11:59.440 He made another interesting point about how the suspensions are 0:11:59.480 --> 0:12:01.400 kind of in bo It's the same as what I've 0:12:01.440 --> 0:12:03.559 been telling telling you guys about the ten D d L. 0:12:04.000 --> 0:12:05.439 A suspension is the same. Let's say you got a 0:12:05.480 --> 0:12:08.800 ten game suspension. If you're a position player, you miss 0:12:08.840 --> 0:12:11.280 eight nine ten games. If you're a picture you miss 0:12:11.360 --> 0:12:14.560 like one start, and that may be embolding this whole 0:12:14.600 --> 0:12:17.280 dynamic that the pictures can, like, you know, go there 0:12:17.320 --> 0:12:20.600 on renegade justice, but the batters cannot. They risk more, 0:12:20.920 --> 0:12:23.040 and it just seems to not be in the norms 0:12:23.080 --> 0:12:26.400 of baseball on this side. I think Manny Machado has 0:12:26.440 --> 0:12:29.160 an interesting point. What I will say is the more 0:12:29.200 --> 0:12:32.760 important thing is what Adam Jones is talking about. That's 0:12:32.760 --> 0:12:35.360 the most important part of what was going on in 0:12:35.520 --> 0:12:40.080 Fenway Park so far this week. We cannot I think 0:12:40.160 --> 0:12:42.839 this is okay.

News and 0:14:42.560 --> 0:14:46.840 notes from the NFL. Justin Forsett has retired, calling it 0:14:46.880 --> 0:14:48.960 a career after nine years. He had a streak of 0:14:48.960 --> 0:14:52.320 like two good seasons with Baltimore turned that into a contract. 0:14:52.480 --> 0:14:55.040 God bless him, I tell you. Ruben Foster, on the 0:14:55.040 --> 0:14:58.120 other hand, he was medically rejected and off the board. 0:14:58.160 --> 0:15:00.640 We're hearing now of a lot more teams and we thought, 0:15:00.960 --> 0:15:03.920 remember the San Francisco forty nine is traded back into 0:15:04.000 --> 0:15:06.480 the first round to take Reuben Foster at number thirty 0:15:06.480 --> 0:15:09.200 one overall. But he has issues with both shoulders, the 0:15:09.280 --> 0:15:13.800 laborum and the rotator cuff. You remember Jonathan Allen also 0:15:13.880 --> 0:15:17.560 from that Alabama defense, also they think have shoulder issues. 0:15:17.600 --> 0:15:21.120 Gary Barnage, former tight end of the Cleveland Browns, Remember 0:15:21.120 --> 0:15:23.680 he was released after the draft last week. He is 0:15:23.680 --> 0:15:26.720 meeting as a free agent with the Buffalo Bills today. 0:15:26.920 --> 0:15:29.400 Malcolm Butler, remember there was a lot of trade talk 0:15:29.480 --> 0:15:32.480 leading up to the draft with the Saints with other teams. 0:15:32.680 --> 0:15:35.160 What would the Pats do well? Malcolm Butler reported to 0:15:35.200 --> 0:15:37.760 Patriots O t as today saying that he is ready 0:15:37.760 --> 0:15:40.120 to go and all in with the Pats for the 0:15:40.120 --> 0:15:42.920 two thousand and seventeen season and a couple of things 0:15:42.920 --> 0:15:46.280 that I wanna get out here as well. Lad Darius 0:15:46.320 --> 0:15:49.760 Green is participating in O t A s if you've 0:15:49.800 --> 0:15:52.440 been a longtime fan of the Fantasy Freestyle, which voice 0:15:52.440 --> 0:15:54.640 speeds the spitting statistician all the way back to what 0:15:54.680 --> 0:15:56.800 I had my boy rocks young fist full of rings 0:15:56.800 --> 0:15:58.960 down with me on the Fantasy Freestyle. We have been 0:15:59.000 --> 0:16:01.880 tracking Ladarius Green because we thought this could have been 0:16:02.000 --> 0:16:04.560 very important for the Pittsburgh Steelers offense, for Big Ben 0:16:04.640 --> 0:16:08.200 Roethlisberger to take over, to take over that kind of 0:16:08.240 --> 0:16:11.280 heath roll that had been there for so many years. 0:16:12.640 --> 0:16:16.880 And unfortunately, Lyadarius Green has been battling concussions and concussions 0:16:16.920 --> 0:16:20.320 symptoms for a long time, had other injuries as well. 0:16:20.640 --> 0:16:22.320 So I just want to say you know, tip of 0:16:22.360 --> 0:16:24.520 the cap and big shout out to led Garius Green. 0:16:24.920 --> 0:16:28.560 The best ability is availability and maybe he can have 0:16:28.880 --> 0:16:31.680 a healthy two thousand and seventeen. The last thing I 0:16:31.720 --> 0:16:34.760 want to say, we heard we shared the news with 0:16:34.760 --> 0:16:37.320 you guys a couple of weeks ago about the tragedy 0:16:37.400 --> 0:16:39.440 that he felt that he felt Todd Heap and his 0:16:39.560 --> 0:16:43.880 family when their child, Holly home with their child, Holly Heap, 0:16:44.680 --> 0:16:46.800 as a three year old was actually run over and 0:16:46.880 --> 0:16:51.960 killed in the driveway by the family. Unfortunately, today was 0:16:52.000 --> 0:16:54.920 Holly Heap's birthday. She would have turned four years old 0:16:55.000 --> 0:16:58.240 today after that incident that happened on April fift And 0:16:58.280 --> 0:17:00.000 so what the family is doing and what I think, 0:17:00.040 --> 0:17:02.920 because you know, I guess a nice story and a 0:17:03.040 --> 0:17:05.560 nice idea and a nice thing for people to do 0:17:06.440 --> 0:17:09.000 is uh, they're talking today. They've branded today as Hugs 0:17:09.000 --> 0:17:12.680 for Holly Day, where and the Heap family is asking 0:17:12.760 --> 0:17:15.960 everyone to just go through some random acts of kindness, 0:17:16.359 --> 0:17:19.160 hug someone do something nice and a kind of pay 0:17:19.200 --> 0:17:21.760 it forward way and that was a way to honor 0:17:21.840 --> 0:17:25.879 the life of Holly Heap today and they're making every 0:17:25.880 --> 0:17:29.399 May third, her birthday Hugs for Holly Day. So if 0:17:29.440 --> 0:17:31.160 you want to go out, I know, uh it's already 0:17:31.160 --> 0:17:34.159 seven o'clock or seven thirty Eastern time, but if you 0:17:34.200 --> 0:17:36.160 still have time today, make sure you do something nice 0:17:36.200 --> 0:17:38.879 out there. Um, just doing something nice can go a 0:17:38.920 --> 0:17:42.399 long way, and um, you know it won't take the 0:17:42.400 --> 0:17:44.760 pain away from the Heap family. But I do think 0:17:44.840 --> 0:17:48.720 this was nice. Hugs for Holly going on today, keep 0:17:48.760 --> 0:17:50.639 it a moving though. We do have that poll question 0:17:50.760 --> 0:17:53.240 up on that f N T s Y radio Twitter 0:17:53.320 --> 0:17:55.760 poll and right now, I gotta tell you, with two 0:17:55.840 --> 0:17:58.320 hundred people already having voted in big shout out to 0:17:58.359 --> 0:18:00.639 all the people that are following us at f N 0:18:00.680 --> 0:18:04.400 T s Y also follow your boy at Spitting Speeds. 0:18:04.840 --> 0:18:07.159 And I asked which of these quarterbacks will find a 0:18:07.320 --> 0:18:11.760 job first, Donnie Burns, will it be Ryan Fitzpatrick, j Cutler, 0:18:12.200 --> 0:18:16.240 Robert Griffin the third or Colin Kaepernick. And interestingly enough 0:18:16.280 --> 0:18:17.840 we have some votes, but we also have some people 0:18:17.880 --> 0:18:21.240 that have replied. One. I want to say one the 0:18:21.280 --> 0:18:25.080 snake out there said wow, no, none option, which I 0:18:25.119 --> 0:18:28.760 think is interesting. And then also Donny V says Cutler, 0:18:29.080 --> 0:18:31.720 but Kaepernick was actually really good last year and she'd 0:18:31.720 --> 0:18:35.840 be considered. But won't be due to reasons outside of football. 0:18:36.040 --> 0:18:37.840 I kind of agree with that. I don't agree with 0:18:37.880 --> 0:18:40.800 the none option, And let me tell you why. I 0:18:40.880 --> 0:18:43.320 just think a lot of teams are waiting, like I said, 0:18:43.359 --> 0:18:46.080 because of the draft, and right now you might see 0:18:46.119 --> 0:18:50.920 a flurry starting specifically next week. Next week is when 0:18:51.000 --> 0:18:55.680 signings will no longer count against compen sort uh compensatory picks, okay, 0:18:55.680 --> 0:18:57.399 in the lead calendar. So I think some teams may 0:18:57.400 --> 0:18:59.760 be waiting, and I've got potential homes for all four 0:18:59.800 --> 0:19:04.600 of these guys, Donnie Burns. One of them involves your 0:19:04.640 --> 0:19:07.760 Miami Dolphins. Now, if you think about it, you hear 0:19:07.800 --> 0:19:10.879 how you know we've heard of trade potential with guys 0:19:10.920 --> 0:19:14.760 like Andy McCarron, guys like you know, Mike Glennon back 0:19:14.800 --> 0:19:17.440 before he resigned this deal. Well in that same vein 0:19:17.480 --> 0:19:20.719 as the Miami Dolphins backup quarterback Matt Moore. And so 0:19:20.880 --> 0:19:24.679 I wonder, Donnie, if Jay Cutler, who had success with 0:19:24.760 --> 0:19:28.840 Adam Gays previously, would it be something that Miami would 0:19:28.880 --> 0:19:31.359 consider if they thought they could flip Matt Moore and 0:19:31.359 --> 0:19:35.280 then just use Jake Cutler as a backup. See here's 0:19:35.320 --> 0:19:37.080 my thing with that and you know, some of my 0:19:37.119 --> 0:19:39.720 friends have talked to me about that. Matt Moore and 0:19:40.280 --> 0:19:42.719 Jay Cutler to me, are similar in the fact that 0:19:42.920 --> 0:19:46.000 they'll take shots. They'll take you know, a lot of 0:19:46.000 --> 0:19:48.119 the time they won't be good shots. But here's my 0:19:48.200 --> 0:19:50.840 thing with Cutler is, I know he worked with gays before, 0:19:50.880 --> 0:19:53.840 but his thing is not his skill or his his 0:19:53.920 --> 0:19:56.919 skill sets. It's his decision making and his leadership and 0:19:56.920 --> 0:20:01.440 ability to get along with others. He's not good at 0:20:01.359 --> 0:20:03.080 it has a backup. What does it really matter? I mean, 0:20:03.119 --> 0:20:05.280 Tannah Hell is kind of on his last legs. The 0:20:05.359 --> 0:20:08.440 Jerry is still oud, He's coming off a big time injury. 0:20:08.920 --> 0:20:11.920 I mean, listen, I don't think anything is a perfect fit, 0:20:11.960 --> 0:20:13.879 but I'm just coming up with options, and I do 0:20:13.960 --> 0:20:16.720 see a potential for that one. Check out this one, though, 0:20:16.960 --> 0:20:19.280 Ryan Fitzpatrick. You know where I could see a fit 0:20:20.040 --> 0:20:23.240 going right back to Houston. Going right back to Houston 0:20:23.480 --> 0:20:27.800 was in that fantasy relevance of DeAndre Hopkins. Absolutely, But 0:20:27.840 --> 0:20:30.639 you know what else fits is fits is smart and 0:20:30.720 --> 0:20:34.119
