Speaker 1: agency and the like. And then as always as you
Speaker 1: know we do, uh you know, we put the fun
Speaker 1: and functional sports content here on the Fantasy Freestyle. We
Speaker 1: got rapping athletes to break down. But I'm gonna bring
Speaker 1: back some of the guys that were hooking me up
Speaker 1: last football season. My man JP the night Our is
Speaker 1: going to experience the trap game my estros for the
Speaker 1: first time in this episode. And I'm also gonna tell
Speaker 1: you listen, since we last spoke, we have hit July one,
Speaker 1: and July one is the beginning of a new fiscal year.
Speaker 1: If you're incorporations or you know kind of stuff like that,
Speaker 1: you understand. And I'm gonna tell you who loves the
Speaker 1: beginning of the fiscal year July first, more than anybody
Speaker 1: else and will love it until oh, I would say
Speaker 1: about the year two thousand and thirty five. We'll talk
Speaker 1: about that a little bit later on, but I want
Speaker 1: to get you caught up on the news and notes
Speaker 1: here in the NFL before we dive into the a
Speaker 1: f C West. There's two things that I want to
Speaker 1: ask you guys, and talk to you guys about one
Speaker 1: Robert Turban of the Indianapolis Colts. He got popped. He's
Speaker 1: gonna serve at four game suspension for the Pets. You know,
Speaker 1: he's enhancing his performance synthetically, shall we say so? He's
Speaker 1: gonna miss the first four games of the Indianapolis Colts season.
Speaker 1: And I gotta tell you something. I think there's some
Speaker 1: opportunity here for a couple of guys. A lot of
Speaker 1: people are gonna talk about Marlon Mack. I don't think so, Okay,
Speaker 1: I believe this is an opportunity for two young kids
Speaker 1: that are back on the bottom of their depth chart.
Speaker 1: One is not he hinds. This is a rookie. He's
Speaker 1: more of a prototypical like PPR kind of back, third
Speaker 1: down back guy who's a dangerous guy in space. Think
Speaker 1: about you know, Turik Cohen, Elijah McGuire, these kind of guys.
Speaker 1: I think he's gonna get a little bit more of
Speaker 1: an opportunity. But remember the name Jordan's Wilkins. Okay, this
Speaker 1: is kind of as my man Jake Sealey, who I
Speaker 1: work with here in the mornings on Rhodo Experts in
Speaker 1: the morning, he says, he's actually the best overall back
Speaker 1: and I think he may have an opportunity. This could
Speaker 1: be an opportunity for Jordan Wilkins. Will keep an eye
Speaker 1: out in that Indianapolis running back room. The last thing
Speaker 1: I'll say is, don't forget Marco Murray is also still
Speaker 1: without a job, and I think he's gonna wind up
Speaker 1: signing somewhere. Maybe it's an injury or maybe a four
Speaker 1: game pe d Sus mentioned, So keep an eye out
Speaker 1: on that. Remember the name Jordan Wilkins and Nahem Hines.
Speaker 1: I also gotta ask listen, since we last talked this
Speaker 1: Jamis Winston thing has gone down, right. You know about
Speaker 1: the issue with the uber driver back in two thousand
Speaker 1: I believe sixteen, maybe two thousand fifteen. But he gets
Speaker 1: three games, and here's my beef with this, all, okay,
Speaker 1: Jameis Winston three games for in essence sexual misconduct groping
Speaker 1: an uber driver, Zeke Elliott for what doing similar things
Speaker 1: that like a Marty gar operade with like his friend
Speaker 1: or a woman. Six games, three six. I don't know
Speaker 1: about the rhyme of reason. Let me add to this,
Speaker 1: Tom Brady for you know, deflating football's four games. Okay,
Speaker 1: so deflating footballs is worse than molesting an uber driver,
Speaker 1: but not as bad as ripping the top off on
Speaker 1: a young lady in a Marty gar operade. Okay, got it? Um,
Speaker 1: Former Giants kicker Josh Brown for repeatedly abusing his wife
Speaker 1: on NFL grounds at the Pro Bowl in fact one game.
Speaker 1: So that's less than grouping an uber driver or deflating
Speaker 1: football's or exposing a woman at a Marty reparade. Okay,
Speaker 1: I think I got it. But then what about like
Speaker 1: Seantrel Henderson, My man Mike Florio knows him. He's an
Speaker 1: offensive lineman for the Bill's mafia down there. What about
Speaker 1: Martevis Bryant and marijuana? Sixteen games? Oh? I see, So
Speaker 1: smoking marijuana is worse than repeatedly abusing your wife, Worse
Speaker 1: than uh, grabbing an uber driver apparently, you know, our
Speaker 1: president forty five thinks that's all good if you're famous. Um,
Speaker 1: worse than deflating football's integrity of the game, all that stuff,
Speaker 1: worse than exposing a female at Marty operade. Marijuana worse
Speaker 1: than all of these things, and you know, more than
Speaker 1: four three times worse apparently, But I digress the nfl
Speaker 1: US to find some consistency in their personal conduct policy,
Speaker 1: some consistency in their performance enhancing drug policy before we
Speaker 1: hit the next year. But if you're talking about this
Speaker 1: here on the status over beat cipher in the chat room,
Speaker 1: on YouTube, on Twitter, on twitch, holler at MEO if you,
Speaker 1: for some reason think that I'm bugging that there is
Speaker 1: in fact consistency in this policy, holler at me. If
Speaker 1: any of y'all down there in a fantasy pit of misery,
Speaker 1: dilly dilly, if you think that I'm bugging, holler at me.
Speaker 1: Let me know. All right, But as we move along,
Speaker 1: we're gonna talk here about the a f C West.
Speaker 1: I think the a f C West is a very
Speaker 1: interesting division. I'm gonna give you my diamonds, my fool gazes.
Speaker 1: And also, if you're going over to my bookie dot
Speaker 1: a g right now, depositive little something, okay, and then
Speaker 1: enter the promo code f n T s Y, you
Speaker 1: will get a fifty deposit bonus on your original investment. Okay,
Speaker 1: we're trying to hook you up. You can tell them
Speaker 1: that speeds of spitting statisticians sent you. We're gonna also
Speaker 1: look at the over unders for some of these teams
Speaker 1: and where I would lay a cup the shekels. I'm
Speaker 1: trying to win my leagues and win that cash. Let's
Speaker 1: start with the Denver Broncos. Okay, I'm gonna tell you
Speaker 1: right now. I got a diamond. I don't even know
Speaker 1: if he's a diamond in the rough, but I'm telling
Speaker 1: you right now. And this is a big shout out
Speaker 1: to my man Pete in Staten Island. Last year, Pete
Speaker 1: and Staten Island, he was part of my status over
Speaker 1: beat Cipher. He was calling an all year and he
Speaker 1: was like, listen, I'm on DeVante Booker. I'm stashing Devontae Booker.
Speaker 1: They don't want c. J. Anderson. It's gonna be Devontae
Speaker 1: Booker's job. And I was like, you know what, I
Speaker 1: think you might be right. I think that's a decent stadge.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you right now, Pete from shout Lynn.
Speaker 1: Not this year, brother man, It's all about Royce Freeman.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you something right now. Royce Freeman is
Speaker 1: one of my big time diamonds and the rough here
Speaker 1: for the a f C West and among the rookie
Speaker 1: running backs. If you want to know the truth. I
Speaker 1: think talent wins out. I think he will eventually leap
Speaker 1: frog DeVante Booker. I think Royce Freeman is the running
Speaker 1: back to own for the Denver Broncos, especially if you're
Speaker 1: in a standard league, Okay, because he's not gonna offer
Speaker 1: much in the passing game. I think Devon Tay Booker
Speaker 1: is gonna wind up being that PPR kind of back
Speaker 1: for the Denver Broncos. But if you're in a standard league,
Speaker 1: I am not scared to say I think Royce Freeman
Speaker 1: can be a back end RB two in his rookie
Speaker 1: year in standard re draft leagues. Okay, you need to
Speaker 1: know about this kid, this rookie out of Oregon. They
Speaker 1: went out and drafted this kid because I don't think
Speaker 1: the organization believes in DeVante Booker. They tried as much
Speaker 1: as possible to give him that job last year and
Speaker 1: it didn't go down. Royce Freeman, Diamond and the rope
Speaker 1: as it comes to the Denver Broncos. On the flip side,
Speaker 1: when I talk about the fugases, the guys you need
Speaker 1: to forget about for the Denver Broncos, I actually have
Speaker 1: a couple. The first one is case Keenum. Listen, case
Speaker 1: keenom I think outperformed himself and expectations last year. He
Speaker 1: is now also not with Shermer anymore. Remember they were
Speaker 1: reports in the off season, like when he was gonna
Speaker 1: go to when Sherman was gonna go to the Giants
Speaker 1: and elsewhere. They were like, oh, he's gonna take case
Speaker 1: Keenum with him wherever he goes. I believe that that
Speaker 1: is because case Keenum was a product of that system.
Speaker 1: Case Keenum was just a guy for years and then
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, he's gonna be that dude that
Speaker 1: apparently is gonna be your fantasy quarterback. No, no, no,
Speaker 1: even in two quarterback leagues. I like a bunch of
Speaker 1: other people. You can get Matt Ryan, Ben Roethlisberger, you know,
Speaker 1: Jared Goff, Derek Carr. I would rather all these guys
Speaker 1: than case Keenum, And in two QB leagues you can
Speaker 1: get these people. I would even rather a guy like
Speaker 1: Tyrod Taylor for early in the season. I would rather
Speaker 1: a spec play on a guy like Lamar Jackson instead
Speaker 1: of putting in your lot with case Keenum. So I
Speaker 1: think he could be a little bit of a fool
Speaker 1: waysy someone you need to forget about It's interesting with
Speaker 1: their wide receiver position. Okay, you know about DT, you
Speaker 1: know about Mannie Sanders. There are two wide receivers if
Speaker 1: you're in dynasty leagues, I think warrant a look here
Speaker 1: for the Denver Broncos. The first is Courtland Sutton. He
Speaker 1: was one of the wide receivers who my man, Emery Hunt,
Speaker 1: who knows the college scouting game, like whoa um says
Speaker 1: was you know skill Lie is one of the best
Speaker 1: wide receivers in this draft and he goes to Denver.
Speaker 1: Remember never has been looking for that third wide receiver
Speaker 1: option for a long time. Guys like Cody Latimer and
Speaker 1: the like getting an opportunity in there. So I like Sutton,
Speaker 1: but don't sleep on Dave Shawn Hamilton's out of Penn
Speaker 1: State either. Okay, both DT and Manny Sanders. I think
Speaker 1: around like the last year or their deal, there is
Speaker 1: the potential that it is you know, Sutton and Hamilton's
Speaker 1: that are the starting wide receivers next year for the
Speaker 1: Denver Broncos. Maybe the Broncos bring back one of these
Speaker 1: guys d T. R. Sanders and only one of them.
Speaker 1: But if you're in the Dynasty League. Keep an eye
Speaker 1: for sure on Courtland's Sun and Sutton and Dave Shawn Hamilton's.
Speaker 1: When I look at their schedule, the Denver Broncos, they
Speaker 1: open up as always, they always wind up with like
Speaker 1: two straight home games, and this year they get that
Speaker 1: as well. They stayed on home the home opener against
Speaker 1: the Seattle Seahawks. Remember Seattle on the road a different
Speaker 1: team than at home. Seattle will be working through a
Speaker 1: new defense, working through a new in my opinion, starting
Speaker 1: running back. So I think Denver could get off to
Speaker 1: a hot start home against Seattle, home against Oakland. But
Speaker 1: there's a lot of coin flip games to me with
Speaker 1: the Denver Broncos. Okay, the over under on their season
Speaker 1: win total is seven. I actually think that's a good line.
Speaker 1: I am going to pass on the Denver Broncos. They
Speaker 1: are not a team at this line that I am
Speaker 1: going to lay money on because I see them pretty
Speaker 1: much as a seven and nine team. Let's keep it
Speaker 1: moving with the Kansas City Chiefs. That is the next
Speaker 1: team in the division that I want to talk about. Listen,
Speaker 1: people love Patty, That's Mahomes and I am among them.
Speaker 1: You are seeing the quarterback comparisons to Brett Farve. This
Speaker 1: kid is supposedly going to be a gun slinger, and
Speaker 1: they supported him with Tyree Hill, and they went out
Speaker 1: and got Sammy Watkins we know, and stretch the defense,
Speaker 1: be that deep threat. I think that helps them stretch
Speaker 1: the defense. I think that helps him with Travis Kelsey
Speaker 1: running around in the middle of the field. I like
Speaker 1: Patty Mahomes. And here's the other piece on Patty Mahomes
Speaker 1: that people may not know just yet. I think he's
Speaker 1: going to contribute in the running game a little bit
Speaker 1: more than people think. My projections are Patty Mahomes can
Speaker 1: get three hundred, three hundred fifty rushing yards and when
Speaker 1: you're dealing with quarterbacks another three four hundred rushing yards.
Speaker 1: You're in the Alex Smith Russell Wilson territory. You're not
Speaker 1: quite out the Cam Newton territory yet. But these are
Speaker 1: quarterbacks who literally can add a couple of points to
Speaker 1: your bottom line with their running and I like Patty
Speaker 1: that's my homes to be one of them as well.
Speaker 1: When you look at the fool gazzies, I'm gonna go
Speaker 1: with Tyreek Hill. I've seen Tyreek Hill being as high
Speaker 1: as wide receiver ten eleven, twelve, thirteen. I've seen him
Speaker 1: as a back end wide receiver one, a high end
Speaker 1: wide receiver two, and I don't think that is the case. Okay.
Speaker 1: I think they got Sammy Watkins to be another deep threat.
Speaker 1: I think there's a new quarterback in town. And I
Speaker 1: just think that you basically got the best Tyreek Kill
Speaker 1: you're going to get last year. And so if you
Speaker 1: are expecting him to be your back end wide out
Speaker 1: one or you're a great wide out two, that you're
Speaker 1: getting a week week advantage. I wouldn't be so sure
Speaker 1: at that level. I would much rather have a guy
Speaker 1: like Stefon Diggs. I would much rather have a guy
Speaker 1: like t Y Hilton. I would much rather have a
Speaker 1: guy like Larry Fitzgerald and Tyree Killers going at the
Speaker 1: same level as these guys. Give me the alternative to
Speaker 1: Tyree Hill. I think he's gonna be a little bit
Speaker 1: something of a full gazey. As you look at the
Speaker 1: Kansas City Chiefs scheduled, it is not easy. Okay. They
Speaker 1: got a tough start. Four of their first six games
Speaker 1: are on the road. Check this out. They are on
Speaker 1: the road for the Chargers on the road, for the
Speaker 1: Steelers on the road at New England, and on the
Speaker 1: road for Denver. That is tough. Okay, the a f
Speaker 1: C West, they also get the NFC West as the
Speaker 1: division they play against, and they drew the short straw
Speaker 1: there as well for the Chiefs. Okay, So when you
Speaker 1: play the entire NFC West, you're gonna play two games
Speaker 1: on the road, two games at home. It gets Seattle
Speaker 1: on the road. That sucks. They get the Rams on
Speaker 1: the road, that sucks. You would have want to have
Speaker 1: had at least a home game against one of those
Speaker 1: two teams. So I think this first stretch where they
Speaker 1: go on the road to the Chargers, the Steelers, the Broncos,
Speaker 1: and the Pats, that is tough to me. And having
Speaker 1: to go to Seattle and go to Los Angeles to
Speaker 1: take on the Rams, that is also tough to me.
Speaker 1: I can see the Chiefs actually like progressing because you
Speaker 1: know they're setting up Patting Mahomes to be that next guy.
Speaker 1: And I think long term it could be good for them,
Speaker 1: but I think short term they could take a small
Speaker 1: step back. The over under on this team is eight
Speaker 1: and a half. I pass on the Kansas City Chiefs.
Speaker 1: When we come back here on the Fantasy Freestyle, two
Speaker 1: teams down in the a f C West to other
Speaker 1: teams to preview. I'm gonna tell you right now, one
Speaker 1: of them definitive under. I am definitely going over to
Speaker 1: my bookie Dot A G. And I'm putting some shekels
Speaker 1: on the under on one team, and I'm putting some
Speaker 1: shekels on the over on the other team. We got
Speaker 1: the Raiders and the Chargers left in the a f
Speaker 1: C West. I'll tell you who I like and who
Speaker 1: I think is fo Gazzy who being forward? And then,
Speaker 1: like I said, we got a lot of other stuff
Speaker 1: to do. We're gonna talk with the Night Owl about
Speaker 1: the NBA free agency. I'm gonna give you my World
Speaker 1: Cup quarterfinal preview, and we gotta give you my recap
Speaker 1: of the World Tallest Model. Show all that and more

Speaker 1: I'm not. I'm used, unimpressed, overstressed. Yes, there it is
Speaker 1: a little chronicle of bringing you back here on the
Speaker 1: Fantasy Freestyle, right here on the world famous, an award
Speaker 1: winning fantasy sports radio Network. I'm your boy, Dame Martinez.
Speaker 1: You already know what it is. We're having fun here.
Speaker 1: We're breaking down the a f C West a little bit.
Speaker 1: I told you my take on the Broncos. I love
Speaker 1: Royce Freeman. I am going to have shares of Royce
Speaker 1: Freeman on my squads left and right. And then we
Speaker 1: talked about the Kansas City Chiefs with Patty. That's my
Speaker 1: homes but I'd be a little bit leery about the
Speaker 1: Chiefs overall. I am not touching their season win total
Speaker 1: at eight and a half. Also with the season win
Speaker 1: total of eight and a half is the Oakland Raiders
Speaker 1: in their last season in the Bay. I'm telling you
Speaker 1: right now, if I was you, I would run. I
Speaker 1: would not walk. I would run to my bookie dot Ag,
Speaker 1: and I would lay the under on the Oakland Raiders.
Speaker 1: I think this team is gazy. You need to fugu
Speaker 1: out about the Raiders this year. Yeah beast mode, you
Speaker 1: know for his hometown. Yeah, Gruden comes back, bring some excitement,
Speaker 1: good old Chucky. You'll make you want to run through
Speaker 1: a wall. But really, where is this team good? Outside
Speaker 1: of say the offensive line. Derek Carr has taken a
Speaker 1: step back since that injury. You know I'm seeing him
Speaker 1: go right now? Is like quarterbacks seventeen in some drafts.
Speaker 1: I don't know that he's right, And to be quite honest,
Speaker 1: I don't know that John Gruden is the guy to
Speaker 1: cultivate him. Spider too, why banana and whatnot? Right at
Speaker 1: running back? Okay, sure, Marshawn Lynch, I can see him
Speaker 1: being a back end r B two, especially he's gonna
Speaker 1: be my diamond in the rough for this team. Okay,
Speaker 1: I think beast mode can actually be some value. I
Speaker 1: think he is a back end r B two. And
Speaker 1: here's why. As we move along to where more and
Speaker 1: more teams are in time shares and committees, it's going
Speaker 1: to be the guy who you can more depend on
Speaker 1: for touchdowns that is going to get you points. So
Speaker 1: in Detroit, I like LGBT rights, like Garrett Blunt, and
Speaker 1: in Oakland the same theory. I like Marshawn Lynch. I
Speaker 1: think he could be a back end r B two
Speaker 1: for your team. Will he do a lot in the
Speaker 1: passing game? Not necessarily, but I can easily see him
Speaker 1: with another season of nine nine hundred fifty yards and
Speaker 1: eight or nine touchdowns, and that in itself gets you
Speaker 1: to r B two territory. When we talk to the
Speaker 1: fool gazes, Jordy Nelson is a fool gaze for me.
Speaker 1: You need to forget about Jordy Nelson. This is not
Speaker 1: two thousand fourteen where he was that dude. This is
Speaker 1: not two thousand fifteen where he had great chemistry with
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers. Last year you saw that Jordy Nelson was
Speaker 1: not the same guy. And to be quite honest, a
Speaker 1: lot of Jordy Nelson's production, in my opinion, last year
Speaker 1: is because straight the chemistry he had with Aaron Rodgers
Speaker 1: back shoulder throws, red zone kind of targets where they
Speaker 1: have a feel. That is not the case with a
Speaker 1: new quarterback. Jordy Nelson, in my opinion, is there to
Speaker 1: teach professionalism to Martavis Bryant and a Marii Cooper who
Speaker 1: has got something going on. In my opinion between the
Speaker 1: ears with his drops, I always thought Crabtree was a
Speaker 1: better fantasy receiver than a Marii Cooper. Will talk about
Speaker 1: that a little bit later on in the show as
Speaker 1: I break out the remix of the Trap Game. My
Speaker 1: estros forgot amr A. But I do think that Jordy
Speaker 1: Nelson is who Gazzy because if anything, they are going
Speaker 1: to want Cooper and uh Martavis Bryant to be their
Speaker 1: dudes in Oakland. I like Lynch, I think he has
Speaker 1: some value for you because a lot of people think
Speaker 1: that he's done. But I think the touchdowns will still
Speaker 1: play in fantasy. But I would take right now, go
Speaker 1: on over and grab the under on the Oakland Raiders.
Speaker 1: And at least one team left in this division, and
Speaker 1: it's the Los Angeles Charges And I gotta tell you something.
Speaker 1: And I know the Unicorn is not gonna like hearing this,
Speaker 1: but last year, literally at this point last year, when
Speaker 1: I was doing my division by division previews and I
Speaker 1: was doing the NFC East, I was like, you know what,
Speaker 1: I kind of like the Philadelphia Eagles. You can ask
Speaker 1: my man JP down there, my best friend forever, my
Speaker 1: man Chris Bovona, the manimal I they could play the tape.
Speaker 1: Even I was like, I like the Eagles. I think
Speaker 1: they will be in the NFC Championship Game or beyond.
Speaker 1: And I said why because I liked their talent at
Speaker 1: every single position. There is talent on this roster. And
Speaker 1: I also said last year that I thought the Eagles
Speaker 1: were the only team in the NFC East that was
Speaker 1: not regressing. I can say a lot of the same
Speaker 1: things about the Los Angeles Chargers this year. I think
Speaker 1: they have legit talent at every position. Philip Rivers, Yeah,
Speaker 1: that'll work. Melvin Gordon year, that'll work. Keenan Allen and
Speaker 1: the Williams is trispant, Yeah that'll work. Yes, I know
Speaker 1: they lost Hunter Henry, but I also believe this is
Speaker 1: going to be a top five defense. I don't think
Speaker 1: there is a pair of edge rushers that will get
Speaker 1: more pressure in the a f C than Joey Bosa
Speaker 1: and Melvin Ingram. Yes. That includes in Denver with Von
Speaker 1: Miller and Bradley Chubb. Yes, that includes in Houston with j. J. Watt,
Speaker 1: Whitney Merciless and Jadeveon Clowney. I think the Chargers can
Speaker 1: get the most pressure on the quarterback in the a
Speaker 1: f C. I also think the Chargers have the best
Speaker 1: set of corner backs in the a f C. You're
Speaker 1: talking about Casey Hayward, who was literally, as per Pro
Speaker 1: Football Focus last year, rated the top cornerback in the NFL. Okay,
Speaker 1: don't forget about guys like Desmond King and their other
Speaker 1: rookie you played well, And don't forget about Jason Varette,
Speaker 1: who has been a Pro Bowler and is oft injured
Speaker 1: but should be healthy this year. I love then also
Speaker 1: what they did in the draft with the number seventeen
Speaker 1: overall pick, getting Darwin James. This guy is a Swiss
Speaker 1: army knife that I believe can cover Rob Gronkowski in
Speaker 1: the playoffs and make it work for the Los Angeles Charges.
Speaker 1: What I'll also say is this, And you saw this
Speaker 1: when the Fantasy Sports Network they did their mock draft yesterday,
Speaker 1: and when you got a bunch of experts in the room,
Speaker 1: all loo gonna wait on quarterback. You're getting legit quarterbacks
Speaker 1: in round seven, eight, nine, and ten. And I'm gonna
Speaker 1: tell you something. Add Philip Rivers to the list of
Speaker 1: guys that are the reason why I will be waiting
Speaker 1: on quarterback. I'm telling you, guys, and if I've said
Speaker 1: it once, I've said it a thousand times. Here with
Speaker 1: the stats overbeat Cipher. If I'm in a twelve team league,
Speaker 1: I will be the eleventh or twelfth guy to draft
Speaker 1: a quarterback. You're telling me I can wait and I
Speaker 1: could have my choice of Philip Rivers, Matthew Stafford, uh,
Speaker 1: Patty Mahomes, you know, and all these guys whichever one
Speaker 1: falls to meet Carson Wentz even this is another Rivers
Speaker 1: is another example of why I will wait on quarterbacks.
Speaker 1: So I believe Philip Rivers is a diamond the rough.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you who the other diamond and the
Speaker 1: rough is for me on the Los Angeles Chargers, and
Speaker 1: it's Mike Williams, second year wide receiver at a Clemson.
Speaker 1: This guy is a boss. This guy was a first
Speaker 1: round draft pick of the Chargers at a Clemson. It
Speaker 1: was him and to Shaun Watson who almost like single
Speaker 1: handedly beat Alabama in the championship game a couple of
Speaker 1: years back. Yes, he had the back injury and stuff,
Speaker 1: but I think Williams stands to benefit the most from
Speaker 1: the Hunter Henry injury. Williams. Mike Williams, and excuse me
Speaker 1: when I say Williams with the Chargers right now, I'm
Speaker 1: talking about Mike Williams. Tyrrell Williams is also out there.
Speaker 1: But I like Mike Williams, and I like Mike Williams
Speaker 1: to be the guy that takes some of those red
Speaker 1: zone targets. I like Mike Williams to be the guy
Speaker 1: that takes some of those third down move the chains
Speaker 1: kind of looks from Philip Rivers. I think he's the
Speaker 1: guy that can get you six touchdowns. And I think
Speaker 1: Mike Williams is going at value. He is a diamond
Speaker 1: and the rough. For the Los Angeles I almost said
Speaker 1: San Diego, but for the Los Angeles Chargers go, Chargers Go.
Speaker 1: I told you how much I love their defense. I
Speaker 1: think they are top three defense for fantasy. And I
Speaker 1: will say this also if you follow the Chargers, and
Speaker 1: I know some people out there do see you. Um
Speaker 1: for years, the Chargers have been snake bit, ridiculous collapses
Speaker 1: at the end of games, ridiculous starts to the season,
Speaker 1: and then they pick it up at the end, missing
Speaker 1: field goals left and right, young wing cool or whoever
Speaker 1: it is, right, if they put some field goals through
Speaker 1: the uprights and get off to a hot start, I
Speaker 1: can see this team. I actually believe the Chargers are
Speaker 1: the class of the a f C West. I take
Speaker 1: the over on the Chargers there over under is nine.
Speaker 1: I think this is a double digit win franchise right
Speaker 1: now this year and when it comes to the a
Speaker 1: f C. I'm telling you right now, I am trying
Speaker 1: to beat Tom Brady and I'm looking for veteran quarterbacks
Speaker 1: on their last ride to be the guys to do it.
Speaker 1: There's one in Pittsburgh, and there is one with the
Speaker 1: Charges Philip Rivers and gonna be scared going into Gillette
Speaker 1: in mid January. I love me some Los Angeles Chargers
Speaker 1: this year provided health obviously, and they've been snake bitten
Speaker 1: in that way as well. But give me the Chargers
Speaker 1: as the class of the a f C West. All right,
Speaker 1: let's keep it moving. I want to do right now.
Speaker 1: I want to bring in my man JP, the night Owl.
Speaker 1: He's down there in the fantasy pit of misery. Delay.
Speaker 1: Delay to my boy JP. I want to talk a
Speaker 1: little bit of NBA with him. Okay, we talked about,
Speaker 1: you know, free agency, getting into it with the draft
Speaker 1: and stuff like that. We talked about that with JP.
Speaker 1: And I want to remind you guys right now, we
Speaker 1: gotta pull question up. What is your reaction to Boogie
Speaker 1: Cousins signing with the Warriors. Is the NBA going too
Speaker 1: far with their super teams? What is the salary cap
Speaker 1: for if not to prevent this exact thing? So right
Speaker 1: now of you says it ruins the NBA for you.
Speaker 1: I don't disagree. They say they love Golden State. Answering
Speaker 1: the move of Lebron to Los Angeles and say, hey,
Speaker 1: let's just wait and see, let's see what happens on
Speaker 1: the court. Right the off season is not over. There
Speaker 1: could be some other moves made a team like Los
Speaker 1: Angeles by a team like Houston or teams in the East.
Speaker 1: And also, listen, Boogie Cousins is coming back from an
Speaker 1: achilles injury, okay, and that is not easy, especially in
Speaker 1: the n b A. I don't think there's many examples
Speaker 1: in the NBA of someone coming back effectively. Maybe Wesley
Speaker 1: Matthews is one that I can think of. Maybe my
Speaker 1: man JP or my best friend forever Mike Florio can
Speaker 1: tell me a little bit otherwise. But now, at this point,
Speaker 1: we bring in my guy, j P the Night Owl. Okay,
Speaker 1: he's my basketball, my new basketball. Corresponding JP, fifty one
Speaker 1: percent of the poll right now, we got over a
Speaker 1: hundred votes are saying that yes, this Boogie Cousins signing
Speaker 1: Ruins the NBA for them. Are you part of that? JP?
Speaker 1: I am, But I do think I differ a lot
Speaker 1: from that. And tell me more so, where I come from.
Speaker 1: Is I'm not mad at anyone or I'm not mad
Speaker 1: at the league. I'm not mad at the Warriors. I'm
Speaker 1: not even mad at Boogie Cousins. It's the right decision.
Speaker 1: It just kind of sucks as a fan to see
Speaker 1: that it's happening. That's where I take it from. So
Speaker 1: why does it suck? Though? Right You're you're telling me
Speaker 1: it sucks because of kind of like the competitive balance
Speaker 1: of it. All Right, you have we have an essence.
Speaker 1: We have rendered the regular season obsolete, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean? And that you know, with the with the
Speaker 1: option on the pole ruins the NBA. For me, maybe
Speaker 1: that like that ruins You know, what is it like
Speaker 1: six to seven months of viewing if you're a big
Speaker 1: NBA fan and listen in October of last year, I
Speaker 1: was like, yo, wake me up when it's the Calves
Speaker 1: in the Warriors in the finals. You know what I mean?
Speaker 1: And so like, now you're rendering the NBA regular season
Speaker 1: pretty much obsolete. You're rending early playoffs Obsoletely, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: tell you right now, if all things are equal and
Speaker 1: stay the same, wake me up around Memorial Day next
Speaker 1: year when it is the Golden State Warriors and the
Speaker 1: Boston Celtics in the NBA Finals. In my opinion. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Philly's got a chance if Marquelle Folts can you know,
Speaker 1: find his shot. But don't sleep on the Boston Celtics.
Speaker 1: And you know, Kauai Leonard makes the will be on
Speaker 1: the move. But I agree with you you're saying it
Speaker 1: kind of does. Maybe it doesn't ruin it for you,
Speaker 1: but JP competitive balance is all out of whack, right, Yeah.
Speaker 1: I mean there wasn't much to say about it last year,
Speaker 1: but this is just kind of like another layer to
Speaker 1: it where it's like there's no team that's even close
Speaker 1: competitively to this team. So I'm sleeping through the NBA Finals.
Speaker 1: And that's the thing JP, like even the Rockets they
Speaker 1: lose Trevor Areza, you know that's an issue. Could Kauai
Speaker 1: make a big difference? Yes? Could there be some other
Speaker 1: move that's a big move that we don't know about
Speaker 1: that's gonna happened via trade, Anthony Davis on the move,
Speaker 1: you know, something like that, possible, Kyrie Irving on the
Speaker 1: move possible. But as it stands right now, pencil Meian
Speaker 1: for Golden State Boston as a NBA Finals And here's
Speaker 1: the other thing. Here's the here's that kind of the
Speaker 1: biggest stat that I saw that speaks to this, JP.
Speaker 1: Check this out, and I'd love to hear your reaction
Speaker 1: of this. The presume starting five of the Golden State Warriors. Right,
Speaker 1: so we're now talking about Steph Curry, Clay Thompson, Kevin Durant,
Speaker 1: Draymond Green, and Boogie Cousins as the five, the five
Speaker 1: of them combined, JP, check this out. The five of
Speaker 1: them combined in their careers have a combined twenty seven
Speaker 1: All Star Game appearances, all right, JP? Seven combined among
Speaker 1: those five. That's a lot, right, But check this out, JP.
Speaker 1: The entire Southwest Division of the NBA and the entire
Speaker 1: Central Division of the NBA. Ten NBA teams combined have
Speaker 1: a combined twenty two All Star appearances among them. JP.
Speaker 1: That's ridiculous. That's your competitive imbalance right there. Yeah, and
Speaker 1: make it all probably go combined their teams and still
Speaker 1: lose to the Warrior, That's what I'm saying. Should. I
Speaker 1: saw so much stuff on Twitter. You know, my my
Speaker 1: two favorite ones JP were one I heard that on
Speaker 1: NBA two K, You're not even allowed to sign to
Speaker 1: Marcus Cousins to the mid level extepen they like blocked it. Literally,
Speaker 1: if you try and do that on the video game,
Speaker 1: they will not let it happen, saying that it's unfair.
Speaker 1: The other thing that I thought was interesting, and I
Speaker 1: will pose that as a question. Maybe I should put
Speaker 1: this on as a poll question next week. UM. I
Speaker 1: saw someone on Twitter say that, you know, the United
Speaker 1: States should, in essence, just send the Golden State Warriors
Speaker 1: to represent American Olympics. What do you think about that? JP?
Speaker 1: They'd probably win that too, because they'd have their team
Speaker 1: chemistry and stuff like that. Right, Yeah, they'd be better
Speaker 1: than the Olympic team. They have the chemistry and they've
Speaker 1: got five Olympians. You know, That's what I'm saying. And
Speaker 1: you're you know, you're a millennial, JP, you're a video
Speaker 1: game player. You're putting me onto that sixth Night or
Speaker 1: whatever it is that the kids are playing these days,
Speaker 1: that seven night game, that three night game, whatever it is. Um, so,
Speaker 1: what do you think about this? You can't even sign
Speaker 1: Boogie Cousins in MBA two K for the salary that
Speaker 1: he actually signed with the game. Is like, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: that's a cheat code. That's not fair. What do you
Speaker 1: think I play a lot of two. K Okay, I'll
Speaker 1: tell you they won't even let you come close to
Speaker 1: this team. That's what I'm saying, right, It's absolutely ridiculous.
Speaker 1: All right, So JP, I gotta ask you. You know.
Speaker 1: The other thing I think is interesting and people may
Speaker 1: may or may not realize this, It was GM Lebron
Speaker 1: that cleared the way for the Lakers to sign him.
Speaker 1: If you guys remember I think it was what January
Speaker 1: or whatever by the trading deadline this year, Remember, the
Speaker 1: Calves and the Lakers made a trade, right, the Calves
Speaker 1: getting you know, Clarkson and Hood and some other guys
Speaker 1: Isaiah Thomas went out there. It was that trade that
Speaker 1: cleared the books and created enough space for the Lakers
Speaker 1: this summer to sign not one but two Max guys,
Speaker 1: and then they go on and spend that money on Lebron. Hey, JP,
Speaker 1: to me, this is GM Lebron just really puppeteering the
Speaker 1: entire NBA, creating the conditions for him to then sign
Speaker 1: in l A. Then they get called well, Pope also
Speaker 1: a client of the same you know, management company and
Speaker 1: things like that. This is Lebron just stacking the deck, right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: he gets he gets Ray gen Rondo as well. So
Speaker 1: now there's not one, but two point guards in the
Speaker 1: for the Lakers who can't shoot a lick. Along with
Speaker 1: triple b NZ old ball JP, the next domino to
Speaker 1: fall as before we go to break has to be
Speaker 1: Kauai Leonard. Right, So what do you think, what do
Speaker 1: you think happens there? And what do you think, if
Speaker 1: any are the big moves that can also contribute to
Speaker 1: a shift in competitive balance? Is Kauai? Is that the
Speaker 1: only other piece? It maybe a Kyrie Irving trade? What
Speaker 1: do you anticipate or expect before the next time we
Speaker 1: have fantasy freestyle here? I'd say there's two players on
Speaker 1: the planet that can effectively guard Kevin Durant. One is
Speaker 1: Kawuhi Leonard. Yeah, one Kauai and one Lebron. You put
Speaker 1: them on the same team, that's a problem. I don't
Speaker 1: care what the other team looks like. So that's the
Speaker 1: only thing that would even like wake me up absolutely,
Speaker 1: And you know, Kauai Leonard to Los Angeles Native and
Speaker 1: it looks like they are trying to make that happen.
Speaker 1: But listen, if I'm Greg Popovitch and the Spurs, why
Speaker 1: in the hell am I trading Kawuahi Leonard to my
Speaker 1: competitor to make a team better than me in the West.
Speaker 1: I'm telling you right now, if I'm Popovich, the conversation
Speaker 1: start with Brandon Ingram and my boy and Kyle Cool Kosma.
Speaker 1: You can keep Alonzo though, you can keep Alonzo though,
Speaker 1: I'll take Ingram and I'll take uh, you know, I'll
Speaker 1: take Kuzma. These are guys that play the position in
Speaker 1: essence that Kauai would be vacating for San Antonio, so Yo.
Speaker 1: Let me know right now on Twitter at spitting speeds
Speaker 1: what you think, if you think it ruins the NBA
Speaker 1: for you, or if you like the kind of arms
Speaker 1: race that's happening in the Eastern Conference, I will tell
Speaker 1: you the smart money is on Boston and Philly because
Speaker 1: they're gonna have a much easier path there. When we
Speaker 1: come back here on the Fantasy Freestyle, I'm gonna give
Speaker 1: you my World Cup update if your stats over beat
Speaker 1: Cipher Fan, you know I have been hot as liquid
Speaker 1: hot magna, so hot that we sweat steam. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: give you my quarterfinal preview. And then we chatted up
Speaker 1: real quick with my man Danny Otto about the tallest
Speaker 1: model show in the world. I tell you who likes
Speaker 1: the beginning of a new fiscal year more than anybody else?
Speaker 1: And we break down my trap game. My estro is
Speaker 1: talking about a Mari Cooper in the a f C. West.
Speaker 1: All that and more, which your boy, Dame Martinez speeds
Speaker 1: the spitting statistician, stable genius and vocal minority right here
Speaker 1: on the Fantasy Freestyle on the award winning Fantasy Sports
Speaker 1: Radio Network. Bow Wow, Wow, you b yo, you p
Speaker 1: a come on right back. Have you ever wanted to

Speaker 1: here on the fantasy freet now, Mr boy Dame Martinezpe's
Speaker 1: spitting statistician. Two more real quick point on that Boogie
Speaker 1: Cousins thing. I gotta tell you something, and big shout
Speaker 1: out to my guys down there in the fantasy pit
Speaker 1: of misery. You know, they hit me up on the
Speaker 1: g chat. You know, that's how we communicate with each
Speaker 1: other live on the radio. If I was the fantasy
Speaker 1: executive right now, be like no machine machine. But uh,
Speaker 1: down there in Dilley, Dilley, they told me. Oh. The
Speaker 1: Lakers also said not to Boogie at five million a year.
Speaker 1: And that's another good point. Okay, Boogie Cousins, I hear
Speaker 1: in reports that he did not get a single offer
Speaker 1: in free agency, maybe because of the Achilles, maybe because
Speaker 1: he's a mercurial talent, but I digress. The thing is, listen,
Speaker 1: if he didn't get on any other offers, how are
Speaker 1: you gonna hate the Golden State Worries for being like, hey,
Speaker 1: we'll give you a midlevel exception, you know. And I
Speaker 1: think that if you're also if you're a Boogie Cousins
Speaker 1: and you're coming back from an Achilles injury. You know,
Speaker 1: I think this is a good look because the market
Speaker 1: wasn't there for you. You did not get a single offer,
Speaker 1: So mine as well get a little one year prove
Speaker 1: it deal. And if you're gonna go do that and
Speaker 1: you're gonna have one year to prove it, mine as
Speaker 1: well go to a situation where the conditions for six
Speaker 1: sess to make you look good are gonna be there.
Speaker 1: You know, he's gonna pull down twelve boards game with
Speaker 1: that team. You know, Draymond is the only one who
Speaker 1: really rebounds there, right, so he's gonna have an opportunity.
Speaker 1: And uh, if I got my man, uh whoever I
Speaker 1: got down there, check this out. One of my boys
Speaker 1: just texted me something crazy, and at first I looked
Speaker 1: at it. I did a double take. But I want
Speaker 1: to share it right now with the stats over beat cipher.
Speaker 1: I think it's pretty funny. Uh, I heard it. I
Speaker 1: got a meme right now. It said breaking news, JR.
Speaker 1: Smith has agreed in principle with the Los Angeles Lakers,
Speaker 1: and then right after that it said what the Los
Speaker 1: Angeles Lakers did not agree in principle with j R. Smith?
Speaker 1: And that's probably what Lebron is feeling these days. He
Speaker 1: is happy to be gone. Big shout out to my
Speaker 1: man Kenneth Cashman and Rhodo where they were doing that Jr.
Speaker 1: Smith Lebron James shirt with the new logo. Gotta love
Speaker 1: that as well. All right, let's keep it moving here
Speaker 1: as we put the fun in functional sports radio. What
Speaker 1: I gotta do is I gotta tell you about this
Speaker 1: World Cup. Listen if you follow speeds and spitting statistician
Speaker 1: stats over beats Cipher. If you see me on my Patreon,
Speaker 1: I'm out there giving you World Cup locks right now.
Speaker 1: I'm something like eleven and two on the World Cup
Speaker 1: right now. I'm going over here. Right now, I'm checking
Speaker 1: my balance on my bookie dot a G. I swear
Speaker 1: to you. I logged in today and I was like, oh,
Speaker 1: where's this extra money coming from? No doubt you know
Speaker 1: where it came from. It came from my bet to
Speaker 1: have my parlay to have Croatia and Belgium qualify for
Speaker 1: the quarterfinals. I have been telling you four weeks Croatia
Speaker 1: and Belgium are the non like favorites that you need
Speaker 1: to ride. Right now, there are eight teams left and
Speaker 1: my guys. Croatia and Belgium are still two of them. Croatia,
Speaker 1: I mean, Belgium is gonna have a tough one though.
Speaker 1: So let's look at their the quarterfinal matchups. There are
Speaker 1: four of them. I'm on over here right now on
Speaker 1: my bookie dot a g where you can enter the
Speaker 1: promo code f N T S Y and get a
Speaker 1: fifty deposit bonus on your deposit. You gotta like that, Okay,
Speaker 1: it starts, uh, the quarterfinals, the next round start on Friday,
Speaker 1: July six. We got two games. First game up France
Speaker 1: really against Uruguay, all right, Listen, Uruguay is a decent squad, okay,
Speaker 1: Uh Suarez Cavani. I like some of what Uruguay is doing.
Speaker 1: Uruguay is also a very very strong defensive team. I
Speaker 1: think they've let up something like one goal in this
Speaker 1: entire World Cup, and that was in the last round
Speaker 1: in their match up against Russia. No, against Portugal. I
Speaker 1: do believe in Uruguay is a very very solid defensive squad.
Speaker 1: But France is no joke, all right, I gotta take France. Listen,
Speaker 1: if you saw the round the sixteen, that knockout phase, Yo,
Speaker 1: Mbope is just going over the top. He's just quicker
Speaker 1: than everybody. He's nasty. I like France to get back
Speaker 1: between the aging center backs of Uruguay. I like France.
Speaker 1: They are a minus one oh four favorite. That's pretty
Speaker 1: much even money. Okay, you got Uruguay at plus three fifty,
Speaker 1: the draw at plus two seventeen, and the draw is interesting.
Speaker 1: You can still have a draw even in these not
Speaker 1: out rounds when they go to the penalty kicks. And
Speaker 1: that's something I didn't realize at first. Okay, So these
Speaker 1: lines are about in ninety minutes, okay, and that's very important.
Speaker 1: So like if you see these extra time games like
Speaker 1: you see Columbia England today extra time. You saw a
Speaker 1: lot of extra time games that go to penalty kicks,
Speaker 1: you lose if you bet one of these guys. This
Speaker 1: isn't assuming in ninety minutes. But I would go ahead
Speaker 1: and take France over your aguide to advance to the
Speaker 1: semifinals from the early Friday game, second game, and boy,
Speaker 1: this is the one. This is the one that's really
Speaker 1: going to decide a lot of stuff for me, for
Speaker 1: me personally, And if you follow, that's over beat Stifer.
Speaker 1: If you've been following me and you've got more money
Speaker 1: in your my booky dat a g account, and this
Speaker 1: one is gonna be a big one for you. We
Speaker 1: got Belgium, Mos Squad, Lukaku, the Brewing Right, Um Hazard
Speaker 1: and others, Flani you know and others company. So they
Speaker 1: got Brazil. They got Brazil in this round. And listen,
Speaker 1: Brazil is a deserving favorite. But I gotta tell you something.
Speaker 1: I'm riding with my boys on Belgium. I think Brazil, Yeah,
Speaker 1: they've looked I but they haven't looked like these world
Speaker 1: beaters overall favorites, like they're build up to be. Belgium
Speaker 1: has just as many world class players. Belgium has studs
Speaker 1: up front. And if you saw the game against Japan,
Speaker 1: they were down to nothing, had a furious comeback during
Speaker 1: that game. Three two. I think Belgium can score with anybody.
Speaker 1: I would like two things. I like Belgium in this game.
Speaker 1: I understand if you don't. But in this game. Over
Speaker 1: under for this game is two and a half. I'm
Speaker 1: taking the over. There will be three goals scored in
Speaker 1: this game. Belgium can score and Brazil can score as well.
Speaker 1: This I I see as a two one game. Okay,
Speaker 1: so I like the over in this game. You know,
Speaker 1: I like Belgium, but I've got already, I've got staking
Speaker 1: them already, you know, to uh advance. So I'm not
Speaker 1: gonna lay this. I'm not gonna hedge on this. I
Speaker 1: like the r in that game. Then when we go
Speaker 1: to Saturday, you got another one of my teams, Crochha.
Speaker 1: They're up against Russia. I don't know if there's collusion
Speaker 1: going on or not. That's the only thing that causes
Speaker 1: me concerned. I like that Croatia has to face Russia
Speaker 1: instead of Spain. But listen, they're in Russia. You know,
Speaker 1: Putin's gonna be watching. You know, He's got his trolls,
Speaker 1: you know, and his bots farming, you know, like all
Speaker 1: the stray dogs are gonna be like coordinating something. So my, my,
Speaker 1: my crew of Croatia with a racketicic and you know
Speaker 1: some of the other guys, they are up against it.
Speaker 1: They are, however, the favorites, and I hope and I
Speaker 1: love Croatia to move on. In the last quarter final,
Speaker 1: you're gonna have England, who beat Columbia today in penalty
Speaker 1: kicks up against Sweden. I think, you know, England's got
Speaker 1: some mojo right now. I think they are the better
Speaker 1: side lookout for Harry Kane. I like England, so right
Speaker 1: now my semifinals would be England verse Croatia and Belgium
Speaker 1: and France. I got France, Belgium, Croatia and England as
Speaker 1: my final four, and then I'm telling you you right
Speaker 1: now you may still be able to get there's a
Speaker 1: prop bet right now when my bookie dot A g
Speaker 1: the continent of the winner, Europe and South America are
Speaker 1: pretty much the big choices. You know, you get North America, Asia.
Speaker 1: They were options as well, but I like France, Belgium,
Speaker 1: Croatia and England to be the final four, all representing Europe.
Speaker 1: Go ahead, lay money heavily on the favorite that is Europe.
Speaker 1: Your only options for the rest of the world of
Speaker 1: Brazil and uh Uruguay. Right so, you know, take this
Speaker 1: Europe bet and then maybe lay some shekels on Brazil
Speaker 1: if you want to hedge. That's what I'm telling you
Speaker 1: right now. France, Belgium, Croatia and England. Unfortunately for some
Speaker 1: I think we'll make it all right. Let's bring him
Speaker 1: my man Danny Otto here. If you are a fan
Speaker 1: of the Fantasy Freestyle. And if you have been watching
Speaker 1: in the last few episodes, you remember when a couple
Speaker 1: of weeks ago, we're just celebrating the World Cup and
Speaker 1: the international flavor of the Fantasy Freestyle. We had Katia
Speaker 1: and Victoria, the world's tallest models on the show. Katia
Speaker 1: had the literally the Guinness Booger World records for the
Speaker 1: longest legs in the world. So Danny and I we
Speaker 1: were able and we went to the World's Tallest Model
Speaker 1: Show last weekend. It was a glorious time at stage
Speaker 1: forty eight and Dany Otto we bring him now in
Speaker 1: on the Fantasy Freestyle. As my model corresponded, Danny, how
Speaker 1: you doing, brother man, I'm doing pretty good at you.
Speaker 1: I'm doing all right. So let's give people our top
Speaker 1: takeaways here from the Model Show. And you're laughing. I'm
Speaker 1: laughing because overall I gotta say this, you know, Shout
Speaker 1: out to the ladies, Shout out to the girls they
Speaker 1: did their things, Shout out to the designers. But Danny
Speaker 1: was a little weird. It was definitely a little It
Speaker 1: was a little weird Danny. Right, Here's the thing I've
Speaker 1: never had experience with that, So I don't know if
Speaker 1: the regular version is is weird also like I don't know,
Speaker 1: I have nothing to I think this is a little weirder.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, because here's here's the thing. And big shout
Speaker 1: out to our homegirl Anastagio, who was our hook up,
Speaker 1: former bartender over here a Rock and Riley's Studio thirty four.
Speaker 1: She was like worried about She was trying that that's
Speaker 1: why the girls want the show you're promoting. They were
Speaker 1: trying to sell tickets, right, And it looked, Danny, and
Speaker 1: you will, you will, you will acknowledge this. It looked
Speaker 1: when we would go in at the show when the
Speaker 1: show was going on, it looked like the venue was
Speaker 1: in full okay, and I will say that. And so
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, snap, maybe they're not making money
Speaker 1: off this. Maybe our promotion wasn't good. But then I
Speaker 1: talked to Anastagia afterwards and she said, oh, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: we sold out. And in fact, Danny, she said that
Speaker 1: some of the guys who went there spent fifteen hundred
Speaker 1: dollars for their seat to the show and to be
Speaker 1: able to you know, like you know, go to the
Speaker 1: after party with the models afterwards, right, and we were
Speaker 1: talking to some of those dudes, and Nah, it was
Speaker 1: a little strange, Danny. When when I said a few
Speaker 1: seconds or minutes ago that it was weird, I meant
Speaker 1: they were weird. That's right, that was That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: Shout out to the girls. They did their thing, They
Speaker 1: looked beautiful, the clothes were awesome, but it was just
Speaker 1: a little bit of a weird vibe. I think at
Speaker 1: one point we literally referenced the movie Get Out, saying like,
Speaker 1: this seems a little weird. I don't know what these
Speaker 1: like older gentlemen are really here for what they're expecting.
Speaker 1: So I will say that and then also listen, shout
Speaker 1: out to Katia, right, who was here, longest legs in
Speaker 1: the world. But I'm gonna tell you something, if you're
Speaker 1: six nine and you're also wearing like six or seven
Speaker 1: in chiels, do not try to walk down some stairs.
Speaker 1: I watched, you know, like I never really watched the
Speaker 1: Miss America pageant or model shows like from beginning to end.
Speaker 1: But if I did, the thing I'd be looking for
Speaker 1: is to see someone fall. And oh my god, did
Speaker 1: Katia almost fall? Like I'm talking guys, listen stats of
Speaker 1: Beatside from talking first model out, first song, first outfit,
Speaker 1: you know, boom, she almost tumbles down the stairs, Danny,
Speaker 1: what were you thinking when that was going down? I
Speaker 1: the worst part is that we knew her. Like if
Speaker 1: it was one of the models that I didn't know,
Speaker 1: I'd be like ha ha ha. But I felt bad
Speaker 1: because it was Katia right, But I mean she grabbed
Speaker 1: her like she got herself. She tripped like on one
Speaker 1: or two steps, then jumped down like three or four
Speaker 1: steps and landed in high heels. That was impressive, impressive,
Speaker 1: And after that they had like this other six six
Speaker 1: dude like helping them walk downstairs. It was a lot
Speaker 1: of fun. Danny. What was your biggest takeaway from the event? Uh?
Speaker 1: That uh? I guess some guys are willing to pay
Speaker 1: for some guy. But with the stats over Beats, Cipher
Speaker 1: and my patreons can just see live and direct. Here
Speaker 1: we had Contio, we had Victoria's Lovely, some other lovely ladies.
Speaker 1: Their model show is going to keep it moving. I
Speaker 1: believe they're going to l a. So if you're part
Speaker 1: of the stats over Beat Cipher, Jilly Dilley, I see you.
Speaker 1: If you want to get down my boys out there
Speaker 1: with the drinkings. Uh, if you want to get down
Speaker 1: hollow boy at spitting speeds. Danny, what else you got
Speaker 1: from the show. I mean it was a fun experience
Speaker 1: overall though, right, Oh yeah, no, it was great. It
Speaker 1: kind of makes me feel better that we got asked
Speaker 1: to go to the front row, knowing that some people
Speaker 1: like obviously that we're in the front row to start
Speaker 1: where we're like in between designers, Like the m C
Speaker 1: was like interviewing people, yeah, all right, and they were
Speaker 1: asking like and a lot of it was friends and family,
Speaker 1: you know, like networks of people right, like showing love,
Speaker 1: showing support. But it was like this one kind of
Speaker 1: shady dude that was in the front row and they
Speaker 1: asked him like, oh, who do you know? And he
Speaker 1: was like, no, I paid my own way here. I
Speaker 1: wanted to see this and it had a shady tinge
Speaker 1: to it. That's all I'm gonna say. I'm gonna leave
Speaker 1: it at that, Danny, would you agree? I absolutely agree
Speaker 1: to that. All right, So but check it out. You
Speaker 1: want to support Katia and the crew, the world's tallest models.
Speaker 1: They're doing their thing. Their fashion show is on the
Speaker 1: barn Storming Tour. Check them out. We got to party
Speaker 1: with them a little bit later afterwards. It was a
Speaker 1: lot of fun. A good time was had by all.
Speaker 1: We only got a couple of minutes left here on
Speaker 1: the Fantasy Freestyle. So the one thing I want to
Speaker 1: tell you JP, I apologize. We're gonna have to push
Speaker 1: my trap game. My estro's back to next week. But
Speaker 1: the one thing I want to do I don't know if.
Speaker 1: I don't know if my best friend forever Mikey Florio's
Speaker 1: down there or anybody else. But since I saw you
Speaker 1: guys laughed, last July first happened. July first is not
Speaker 1: only the start of a new fiscal year, but I
Speaker 1: call it Bobby Boni a day. And if you're a
Speaker 1: Mets fan, you know about this. Bobby Bonilla last played
Speaker 1: for the New York Mets. He had won sixty for them,
Speaker 1: and he was due on his contract five point nine
Speaker 1: million dollars left. Instead of taking the money up front,
Speaker 1: he decided to defer his payment get deferred payments, And
Speaker 1: what that meant with interest was from the year two
Speaker 1: thousand ten until the year two thousand thirty five, twenty
Speaker 1: five years including last weekend, Bobby Bonia gets a check
Speaker 1: for one point two million dollars from the New York Mets,
Speaker 1: still for laying on his couch, or for barbecuing out
Speaker 1: in the Bronx, or for doing some but he gets
Speaker 1: one point to million dollars this July one and every
Speaker 1: July one from now until two thousand and thirty five.
Speaker 1: I gotta tell you I want his agent or money manager,
Speaker 1: because that was an awesome deal. The Mets in the
Speaker 1: wilpon S thought at this point in time that because
Speaker 1: they were in bed with Bernie made Off, they thought
Speaker 1: that they were getting ten percent returns on their money.
Speaker 1: So they thought if they deferred payment to Bobby Bonia
Speaker 1: with eight percent interest, they were still coming out ahead
Speaker 1: on the deal, and which is used their interest to
Speaker 1: pay Bobby Bonia. But then, as you know, the thing
Speaker 1: went down with made Off and the Willponds, and now
Speaker 1: they don't have that. And so for now and for
Speaker 1: the next seven teen years, Bobby Bonia will be making
Speaker 1: one point two million dollars on every July one. So
Speaker 1: that's why I call it Bobby Bonia Day. Dilly dilly
Speaker 1: to Bobby Bonia. All right, um, check it out. We're
Speaker 1: about to get out of here. We only got a
Speaker 1: couple of minutes left, and so what two minutes left
Speaker 1: to be exact? And so what I wanna do is,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you about next week's show. Next week,
Speaker 1: what we're gonna do is we're gonna preview another division.
Speaker 1: We did the a f C West this week, we'll
Speaker 1: probably go on over to the NFC West. We're gonna
Speaker 1: get my guys the Trap Game. My Estro's back on
Speaker 1: and popping on the show. We gotta get them into
Speaker 1: the flow. My man, JP the Night Owl has not
Speaker 1: heard the speeds Fantasy Football remixes from The Trap Game,
Speaker 1: my Stro, So we're gonna get them live and direct.
Speaker 1: We'll bring in JP to talk about any updates as
Speaker 1: it relates to NBA free agency trades, that sort of thing.
Speaker 1: I told you about my final four for the World Cup.
Speaker 1: I am riding again with France Belgium over Brazil in
Speaker 1: the upset, which would would be the upset of the ground, right,
Speaker 1: So I like France to move on as a favorite.
Speaker 1: I like Belgium to prove pull the upset, part of
Speaker 1: which is because I got my man, Romo Lulukaku that's
Speaker 1: the guy who I expect to score the most goals
Speaker 1: in the tournament. Me and my boy Frank standfill have
Speaker 1: that bet. Keep it lock to Chris Venture the Analyst.
Speaker 1: He's got some good looks on on the World Cup
Speaker 1: as well. Then I like Croatia to um, you know,
Speaker 1: overcome the collusion, overcome the stray dogs and puting out there.
Speaker 1: And I like Croatia to advance to the semifinals, and
Speaker 1: I like England to move on. So give it England, Croatia,
