Okay, I'm going to as I've 0:02:23.440 --> 0:02:25.720 been doing here on the Fantasy Freestyle. We're gonna go 0:02:25.760 --> 0:02:28.760 division by division today.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. 0:02:44.760 --> 0:02:47.520 Lebron James is over there in La La Land with 0:02:47.560 --> 0:02:50.919 the Lakers, magic working his magic and getting the king 0:02:51.360 --> 0:02:56.399 over there. But then last night, Boogee Cousins signs basically 0:02:56.440 --> 0:02:59.400 for the mid level expect exception over with the Golden 0:02:59.400 --> 0:03:02.560 State war Years.

My options for you 0:03:09.760 --> 0:03:14.120 are I love Golden State, answering Lebron or is it 0:03:14.160 --> 0:03:17.320 does it ruin the NBA for you? Or is it 0:03:17.360 --> 0:03:19.960 on some I'm like, yo, championships are one in the summertime. 0:03:20.040 --> 0:03:22.560 Let's see what happens when they are on the court. 0:03:22.760 --> 0:03:24.799 We already got over a hundred votes there.

And then as always as you 0:03:38.120 --> 0:03:40.040 know we do, uh you know, we put the fun 0:03:40.080 --> 0:03:43.000 and functional sports content here on the Fantasy Freestyle. We 0:03:43.080 --> 0:03:45.480 got rapping athletes to break down. But I'm gonna bring 0:03:45.520 --> 0:03:47.680 back some of the guys that were hooking me up 0:03:47.760 --> 0:03:50.560 last football season. My man JP the night Our is 0:03:50.560 --> 0:03:53.400 going to experience the trap game my estros for the 0:03:53.440 --> 0:03:56.520 first time in this episode. And I'm also gonna tell 0:03:56.560 --> 0:04:01.200 you listen, since we last spoke, we have hit July one, 0:04:01.480 --> 0:04:04.160 and July one is the beginning of a new fiscal year. 0:04:04.240 --> 0:04:06.920 If you're incorporations or you know kind of stuff like that, 0:04:06.960 --> 0:04:11.000 you understand. And I'm gonna tell you who loves the 0:04:11.040 --> 0:04:14.840 beginning of the fiscal year July first, more than anybody 0:04:14.960 --> 0:04:17.320 else and will love it until oh, I would say 0:04:17.320 --> 0:04:19.880 about the year two thousand and thirty five. We'll talk 0:04:19.920 --> 0:04:21.960 about that a little bit later on, but I want 0:04:21.960 --> 0:04:23.680 to get you caught up on the news and notes 0:04:23.760 --> 0:04:25.840 here in the NFL before we dive into the a 0:04:25.920 --> 0:04:27.640 f C West. There's two things that I want to 0:04:27.680 --> 0:04:29.440 ask you guys, and talk to you guys about one 0:04:29.800 --> 0:04:33.200 Robert Turban of the Indianapolis Colts. He got popped. He's 0:04:33.200 --> 0:04:36.200 gonna serve at four game suspension for the Pets. You know, 0:04:36.279 --> 0:04:40.400 he's enhancing his performance synthetically, shall we say so? He's 0:04:40.400 --> 0:04:43.320 gonna miss the first four games of the Indianapolis Colts season. 0:04:43.600 --> 0:04:45.720 And I gotta tell you something. I think there's some 0:04:45.760 --> 0:04:48.120 opportunity here for a couple of guys. A lot of 0:04:48.120 --> 0:04:51.920 people are gonna talk about Marlon Mack. I don't think so, Okay, 0:04:52.240 --> 0:04:54.839 I believe this is an opportunity for two young kids 0:04:54.880 --> 0:04:56.599 that are back on the bottom of their depth chart. 0:04:56.680 --> 0:04:59.600 One is not he hinds. This is a rookie. He's 0:04:59.640 --> 0:05:02.560 more of a prototypical like PPR kind of back, third 0:05:02.600 --> 0:05:05.120 down back guy who's a dangerous guy in space. Think 0:05:05.160 --> 0:05:08.719 about you know, Turik Cohen, Elijah McGuire, these kind of guys. 0:05:08.760 --> 0:05:10.280 I think he's gonna get a little bit more of 0:05:10.320 --> 0:05:14.159 an opportunity. But remember the name Jordan's Wilkins. Okay, this 0:05:14.240 --> 0:05:16.640 is kind of as my man Jake Sealey, who I 0:05:16.720 --> 0:05:18.960 work with here in the mornings on Rhodo Experts in 0:05:19.000 --> 0:05:22.000 the morning, he says, he's actually the best overall back 0:05:22.640 --> 0:05:24.960 and I think he may have an opportunity. This could 0:05:25.000 --> 0:05:27.120 be an opportunity for Jordan Wilkins. Will keep an eye 0:05:27.120 --> 0:05:29.960 out in that Indianapolis running back room. The last thing 0:05:30.000 --> 0:05:33.479 I'll say is, don't forget Marco Murray is also still 0:05:33.520 --> 0:05:35.400 without a job, and I think he's gonna wind up 0:05:35.440 --> 0:05:38.200 signing somewhere. Maybe it's an injury or maybe a four 0:05:38.240 --> 0:05:40.640 game pe d Sus mentioned, So keep an eye out 0:05:40.680 --> 0:05:44.000 on that. Remember the name Jordan Wilkins and Nahem Hines. 0:05:44.040 --> 0:05:46.760 I also gotta ask listen, since we last talked this 0:05:46.880 --> 0:05:49.800 Jamis Winston thing has gone down, right. You know about 0:05:49.800 --> 0:05:52.000 the issue with the uber driver back in two thousand 0:05:52.279 --> 0:05:54.560 I believe sixteen, maybe two thousand fifteen. But he gets 0:05:54.560 --> 0:05:58.880 three games, and here's my beef with this, all, okay, 0:06:00.960 --> 0:06:06.080 Jameis Winston three games for in essence sexual misconduct groping 0:06:06.120 --> 0:06:12.640 an uber driver, Zeke Elliott for what doing similar things 0:06:12.640 --> 0:06:14.920 that like a Marty gar operade with like his friend 0:06:15.000 --> 0:06:19.960 or a woman. Six games, three six. I don't know 0:06:20.000 --> 0:06:21.760 about the rhyme of reason. Let me add to this, 0:06:22.640 --> 0:06:28.720 Tom Brady for you know, deflating football's four games. Okay, 0:06:28.960 --> 0:06:33.520 so deflating footballs is worse than molesting an uber driver, 0:06:34.360 --> 0:06:38.599 but not as bad as ripping the top off on 0:06:38.680 --> 0:06:45.320 a young lady in a Marty gar operade. Okay, got it? Um, 0:06:45.440 --> 0:06:50.640 Former Giants kicker Josh Brown for repeatedly abusing his wife 0:06:51.839 --> 0:06:56.960 on NFL grounds at the Pro Bowl in fact one game. 0:06:57.839 --> 0:07:02.760 So that's less than grouping an uber driver or deflating 0:07:02.760 --> 0:07:08.160 football's or exposing a woman at a Marty reparade. Okay, 0:07:08.760 --> 0:07:12.160 I think I got it. But then what about like 0:07:12.240 --> 0:07:14.960 Seantrel Henderson, My man Mike Florio knows him. He's an 0:07:14.960 --> 0:07:17.960 offensive lineman for the Bill's mafia down there. What about 0:07:17.960 --> 0:07:25.680 Martevis Bryant and marijuana? Sixteen games? Oh? I see, So 0:07:26.080 --> 0:07:32.320 smoking marijuana is worse than repeatedly abusing your wife, Worse 0:07:32.640 --> 0:07:38.040 than uh, grabbing an uber driver apparently, you know, our 0:07:38.040 --> 0:07:41.560 president forty five thinks that's all good if you're famous. Um, 0:07:41.720 --> 0:07:46.000 worse than deflating football's integrity of the game, all that stuff, 0:07:46.720 --> 0:07:51.720 worse than exposing a female at Marty operade. Marijuana worse 0:07:52.080 --> 0:07:55.640 than all of these things, and you know, more than 0:07:56.080 --> 0:07:59.880 four three times worse apparently, But I digress the nfl 0:08:00.040 --> 0:08:03.760 US to find some consistency in their personal conduct policy, 0:08:03.920 --> 0:08:09.960 some consistency in their performance enhancing drug policy before we 0:08:10.040 --> 0:08:12.640 hit the next year. But if you're talking about this 0:08:12.680 --> 0:08:14.800 here on the status over beat cipher in the chat room, 0:08:14.840 --> 0:08:18.320 on YouTube, on Twitter, on twitch, holler at MEO if you, 0:08:18.400 --> 0:08:21.280 for some reason think that I'm bugging that there is 0:08:21.360 --> 0:08:24.520 in fact consistency in this policy, holler at me. If 0:08:24.560 --> 0:08:26.880 any of y'all down there in a fantasy pit of misery, 0:08:26.920 --> 0:08:29.760 dilly dilly, if you think that I'm bugging, holler at me. 0:08:30.040 --> 0:08:32.120 Let me know. All right, But as we move along, 0:08:32.240 --> 0:08:34.560 we're gonna talk here about the a f C West. 0:08:34.600 --> 0:08:36.079 I think the a f C West is a very 0:08:36.160 --> 0:08:39.680 interesting division. I'm gonna give you my diamonds, my fool gazes. 0:08:39.840 --> 0:08:42.199 And also, if you're going over to my bookie dot 0:08:42.240 --> 0:08:45.679 a g right now, depositive little something, okay, and then 0:08:45.800 --> 0:08:48.280 enter the promo code f n T s Y, you 0:08:48.320 --> 0:08:52.520 will get a fifty deposit bonus on your original investment. Okay, 0:08:52.600 --> 0:08:54.000 we're trying to hook you up. You can tell them 0:08:54.000 --> 0:08:56.320 that speeds of spitting statisticians sent you. We're gonna also 0:08:56.320 --> 0:08:58.760 look at the over unders for some of these teams 0:08:58.760 --> 0:09:02.040 and where I would lay a cup the shekels. I'm 0:09:02.040 --> 0:09:04.320 trying to win my leagues and win that cash. Let's 0:09:04.320 --> 0:09:07.199 start with the Denver Broncos. Okay, I'm gonna tell you 0:09:07.280 --> 0:09:10.080 right now. I got a diamond. I don't even know 0:09:10.120 --> 0:09:11.959 if he's a diamond in the rough, but I'm telling 0:09:11.960 --> 0:09:14.480 you right now. And this is a big shout out 0:09:14.520 --> 0:09:17.040 to my man Pete in Staten Island. Last year, Pete 0:09:17.040 --> 0:09:18.679 and Staten Island, he was part of my status over 0:09:18.679 --> 0:09:21.200 beat Cipher. He was calling an all year and he 0:09:21.280 --> 0:09:25.200 was like, listen, I'm on DeVante Booker. I'm stashing Devontae Booker. 0:09:25.360 --> 0:09:27.679 They don't want c. J. Anderson. It's gonna be Devontae 0:09:27.720 --> 0:09:29.760 Booker's job. And I was like, you know what, I 0:09:29.800 --> 0:09:31.840 think you might be right. I think that's a decent stadge. 0:09:31.920 --> 0:09:33.959 I'm gonna tell you right now, Pete from shout Lynn. 0:09:34.840 --> 0:09:37.480 Not this year, brother man, It's all about Royce Freeman. 0:09:37.480 --> 0:09:39.439 I'm gonna tell you something right now. Royce Freeman is 0:09:39.480 --> 0:09:42.280 one of my big time diamonds and the rough here 0:09:42.679 --> 0:09:44.800 for the a f C West and among the rookie 0:09:44.840 --> 0:09:46.520 running backs. If you want to know the truth. I 0:09:46.520 --> 0:09:49.240 think talent wins out. I think he will eventually leap 0:09:49.280 --> 0:09:52.800 frog DeVante Booker. I think Royce Freeman is the running 0:09:52.800 --> 0:09:55.959 back to own for the Denver Broncos, especially if you're 0:09:55.960 --> 0:09:58.280 in a standard league, Okay, because he's not gonna offer 0:09:58.440 --> 0:10:00.640 much in the passing game. I think Devon Tay Booker 0:10:00.840 --> 0:10:03.160 is gonna wind up being that PPR kind of back 0:10:03.200 --> 0:10:05.640 for the Denver Broncos. But if you're in a standard league, 0:10:05.920 --> 0:10:08.200 I am not scared to say I think Royce Freeman 0:10:08.280 --> 0:10:11.000 can be a back end RB two in his rookie 0:10:11.120 --> 0:10:14.720 year in standard re draft leagues. Okay, you need to 0:10:14.720 --> 0:10:17.000 know about this kid, this rookie out of Oregon. They 0:10:17.000 --> 0:10:19.320 went out and drafted this kid because I don't think 0:10:19.320 --> 0:10:23.200 the organization believes in DeVante Booker. They tried as much 0:10:23.200 --> 0:10:26.320 as possible to give him that job last year and 0:10:26.320 --> 0:10:30.439 it didn't go down. Royce Freeman, Diamond and the rope 0:10:30.440 --> 0:10:32.560 as it comes to the Denver Broncos. On the flip side, 0:10:32.559 --> 0:10:34.920 when I talk about the fugases, the guys you need 0:10:34.960 --> 0:10:37.560 to forget about for the Denver Broncos, I actually have 0:10:37.600 --> 0:10:41.559 a couple. The first one is case Keenum. Listen, case 0:10:41.640 --> 0:10:45.280 keenom I think outperformed himself and expectations last year. He 0:10:45.360 --> 0:10:48.559 is now also not with Shermer anymore. Remember they were 0:10:48.600 --> 0:10:50.760 reports in the off season, like when he was gonna 0:10:50.800 --> 0:10:52.760 go to when Sherman was gonna go to the Giants 0:10:52.760 --> 0:10:54.720 and elsewhere. They were like, oh, he's gonna take case 0:10:54.840 --> 0:10:58.200 Keenum with him wherever he goes. I believe that that 0:10:58.320 --> 0:11:00.959 is because case Keenum was a product of that system. 0:11:01.080 --> 0:11:04.480 Case Keenum was just a guy for years and then 0:11:04.480 --> 0:11:06.240 all of a sudden, he's gonna be that dude that 0:11:06.280 --> 0:11:09.000 apparently is gonna be your fantasy quarterback. No, no, no, 0:11:09.280 --> 0:11:11.520 even in two quarterback leagues. I like a bunch of 0:11:11.559 --> 0:11:15.600 other people. You can get Matt Ryan, Ben Roethlisberger, you know, 0:11:15.679 --> 0:11:18.800 Jared Goff, Derek Carr. I would rather all these guys 0:11:18.840 --> 0:11:21.319 than case Keenum, And in two QB leagues you can 0:11:21.360 --> 0:11:23.960 get these people. I would even rather a guy like 0:11:24.040 --> 0:11:26.800 Tyrod Taylor for early in the season. I would rather 0:11:27.080 --> 0:11:30.120 a spec play on a guy like Lamar Jackson instead 0:11:30.120 --> 0:11:32.080 of putting in your lot with case Keenum. So I 0:11:32.080 --> 0:11:34.120 think he could be a little bit of a fool 0:11:34.120 --> 0:11:36.679 waysy someone you need to forget about It's interesting with 0:11:36.720 --> 0:11:39.880 their wide receiver position. Okay, you know about DT, you 0:11:39.920 --> 0:11:43.080 know about Mannie Sanders. There are two wide receivers if 0:11:43.080 --> 0:11:45.959 you're in dynasty leagues, I think warrant a look here 0:11:46.000 --> 0:11:48.760 for the Denver Broncos. The first is Courtland Sutton. He 0:11:48.880 --> 0:11:51.520 was one of the wide receivers who my man, Emery Hunt, 0:11:51.520 --> 0:11:55.280 who knows the college scouting game, like whoa um says 0:11:55.360 --> 0:11:57.040 was you know skill Lie is one of the best 0:11:57.040 --> 0:11:59.120 wide receivers in this draft and he goes to Denver. 0:11:59.240 --> 0:12:01.800 Remember never has been looking for that third wide receiver 0:12:01.880 --> 0:12:05.000 option for a long time. Guys like Cody Latimer and 0:12:05.080 --> 0:12:07.840 the like getting an opportunity in there. So I like Sutton, 0:12:08.160 --> 0:12:11.000 but don't sleep on Dave Shawn Hamilton's out of Penn 0:12:11.040 --> 0:12:14.199 State either. Okay, both DT and Manny Sanders. I think 0:12:14.200 --> 0:12:16.319 around like the last year or their deal, there is 0:12:16.360 --> 0:12:20.200 the potential that it is you know, Sutton and Hamilton's 0:12:20.200 --> 0:12:22.560 that are the starting wide receivers next year for the 0:12:22.559 --> 0:12:25.360 Denver Broncos. Maybe the Broncos bring back one of these 0:12:25.360 --> 0:12:27.440 guys d T. R. Sanders and only one of them. 0:12:27.840 --> 0:12:29.800 But if you're in the Dynasty League. Keep an eye 0:12:29.800 --> 0:12:33.559 for sure on Courtland's Sun and Sutton and Dave Shawn Hamilton's. 0:12:33.559 --> 0:12:37.720 When I look at their schedule, the Denver Broncos, they 0:12:37.760 --> 0:12:40.720 open up as always, they always wind up with like 0:12:40.760 --> 0:12:42.960 two straight home games, and this year they get that 0:12:43.120 --> 0:12:45.800 as well. They stayed on home the home opener against 0:12:45.800 --> 0:12:48.880 the Seattle Seahawks. Remember Seattle on the road a different 0:12:48.880 --> 0:12:51.760 team than at home. Seattle will be working through a 0:12:51.800 --> 0:12:54.600 new defense, working through a new in my opinion, starting 0:12:54.640 --> 0:12:57.000 running back. So I think Denver could get off to 0:12:57.040 --> 0:12:59.800 a hot start home against Seattle, home against Oakland. But 0:12:59.800 --> 0:13:02.120 there's a lot of coin flip games to me with 0:13:02.160 --> 0:13:05.320 the Denver Broncos. Okay, the over under on their season 0:13:05.360 --> 0:13:09.240 win total is seven. I actually think that's a good line. 0:13:09.320 --> 0:13:12.240 I am going to pass on the Denver Broncos. They 0:13:12.240 --> 0:13:14.199 are not a team at this line that I am 0:13:14.200 --> 0:13:16.520 going to lay money on because I see them pretty 0:13:16.559 --> 0:13:19.640 much as a seven and nine team. Let's keep it 0:13:19.679 --> 0:13:22.240 moving with the Kansas City Chiefs. That is the next 0:13:22.280 --> 0:13:24.120 team in the division that I want to talk about. Listen, 0:13:24.440 --> 0:13:28.440 people love Patty, That's Mahomes and I am among them. 0:13:28.640 --> 0:13:31.319 You are seeing the quarterback comparisons to Brett Farve. This 0:13:31.400 --> 0:13:33.920 kid is supposedly going to be a gun slinger, and 0:13:33.960 --> 0:13:36.360 they supported him with Tyree Hill, and they went out 0:13:36.400 --> 0:13:39.760 and got Sammy Watkins we know, and stretch the defense, 0:13:39.880 --> 0:13:42.520 be that deep threat. I think that helps them stretch 0:13:42.559 --> 0:13:44.760 the defense. I think that helps him with Travis Kelsey 0:13:44.920 --> 0:13:47.920 running around in the middle of the field. I like 0:13:48.000 --> 0:13:51.400 Patty Mahomes. And here's the other piece on Patty Mahomes 0:13:51.400 --> 0:13:54.360 that people may not know just yet. I think he's 0:13:54.360 --> 0:13:56.400 going to contribute in the running game a little bit 0:13:56.440 --> 0:13:59.760 more than people think. My projections are Patty Mahomes can 0:13:59.800 --> 0:14:03.760 get three hundred, three hundred fifty rushing yards and when 0:14:03.760 --> 0:14:07.000 you're dealing with quarterbacks another three four hundred rushing yards. 0:14:07.040 --> 0:14:10.640 You're in the Alex Smith Russell Wilson territory. You're not 0:14:10.720 --> 0:14:13.400 quite out the Cam Newton territory yet. But these are 0:14:13.480 --> 0:14:16.040 quarterbacks who literally can add a couple of points to 0:14:16.080 --> 0:14:19.000 your bottom line with their running and I like Patty 0:14:19.240 --> 0:14:22.040 that's my homes to be one of them as well. 0:14:22.080 --> 0:14:25.920 When you look at the fool gazzies, I'm gonna go 0:14:25.920 --> 0:14:29.040 with Tyreek Hill. I've seen Tyreek Hill being as high 0:14:29.080 --> 0:14:32.360 as wide receiver ten eleven, twelve, thirteen. I've seen him 0:14:32.400 --> 0:14:35.200 as a back end wide receiver one, a high end 0:14:35.200 --> 0:14:38.680 wide receiver two, and I don't think that is the case. Okay. 0:14:38.720 --> 0:14:41.360 I think they got Sammy Watkins to be another deep threat. 0:14:41.360 --> 0:14:44.280 I think there's a new quarterback in town. And I 0:14:44.360 --> 0:14:46.800 just think that you basically got the best Tyreek Kill 0:14:46.840 --> 0:14:49.360 you're going to get last year. And so if you 0:14:49.440 --> 0:14:52.400 are expecting him to be your back end wide out 0:14:52.440 --> 0:14:54.600 one or you're a great wide out two, that you're 0:14:54.600 --> 0:14:58.040 getting a week week advantage. I wouldn't be so sure 0:14:58.120 --> 0:15:00.480 at that level. I would much rather have a guy 0:15:00.520 --> 0:15:03.440 like Stefon Diggs. I would much rather have a guy 0:15:03.480 --> 0:15:05.840 like t Y Hilton. I would much rather have a 0:15:05.880 --> 0:15:08.880 guy like Larry Fitzgerald and Tyree Killers going at the 0:15:08.920 --> 0:15:12.120 same level as these guys. Give me the alternative to 0:15:12.200 --> 0:15:14.480 Tyree Hill. I think he's gonna be a little bit 0:15:14.560 --> 0:15:17.240 something of a full gazey. As you look at the 0:15:17.320 --> 0:15:21.560 Kansas City Chiefs scheduled, it is not easy. Okay. They 0:15:21.600 --> 0:15:24.640 got a tough start. Four of their first six games 0:15:24.640 --> 0:15:27.080 are on the road. Check this out. They are on 0:15:27.120 --> 0:15:29.240 the road for the Chargers on the road, for the 0:15:29.360 --> 0:15:32.360 Steelers on the road at New England, and on the 0:15:32.440 --> 0:15:36.160 road for Denver. That is tough. Okay, the a f 0:15:36.280 --> 0:15:39.440 C West, they also get the NFC West as the 0:15:39.480 --> 0:15:42.440 division they play against, and they drew the short straw 0:15:42.600 --> 0:15:45.240 there as well for the Chiefs. Okay, So when you 0:15:45.240 --> 0:15:47.400 play the entire NFC West, you're gonna play two games 0:15:47.400 --> 0:15:50.400 on the road, two games at home. It gets Seattle 0:15:51.360 --> 0:15:56.560 on the road. That sucks. They get the Rams on 0:15:56.600 --> 0:15:59.160 the road, that sucks. You would have want to have 0:15:59.280 --> 0:16:01.240 had at least a home game against one of those 0:16:01.240 --> 0:16:03.560 two teams. So I think this first stretch where they 0:16:03.600 --> 0:16:06.480 go on the road to the Chargers, the Steelers, the Broncos, 0:16:06.520 --> 0:16:09.000 and the Pats, that is tough to me. And having 0:16:09.040 --> 0:16:10.840 to go to Seattle and go to Los Angeles to 0:16:10.840 --> 0:16:13.280 take on the Rams, that is also tough to me. 0:16:13.640 --> 0:16:19.000 I can see the Chiefs actually like progressing because you 0:16:19.040 --> 0:16:21.560 know they're setting up Patting Mahomes to be that next guy. 0:16:21.960 --> 0:16:24.080 And I think long term it could be good for them, 0:16:24.280 --> 0:16:26.560 but I think short term they could take a small 0:16:26.640 --> 0:16:29.760 step back. The over under on this team is eight 0:16:29.840 --> 0:16:33.400 and a half. I pass on the Kansas City Chiefs. 0:16:33.440 --> 0:16:35.720 When we come back here on the Fantasy Freestyle, two 0:16:35.800 --> 0:16:38.600 teams down in the a f C West to other 0:16:38.800 --> 0:16:41.840 teams to preview. I'm gonna tell you right now, one 0:16:41.920 --> 0:16:45.800 of them definitive under. I am definitely going over to 0:16:45.960 --> 0:16:48.360 my bookie Dot A G. And I'm putting some shekels 0:16:48.400 --> 0:16:51.600 on the under on one team, and I'm putting some 0:16:51.640 --> 0:16:54.080 shekels on the over on the other team. We got 0:16:54.080 --> 0:16:55.880 the Raiders and the Chargers left in the a f 0:16:55.960 --> 0:16:58.080 C West. I'll tell you who I like and who 0:16:58.160 --> 0:17:01.160 I think is fo Gazzy who being forward? And then, 0:17:01.320 --> 0:17:03.440 like I said, we got a lot of other stuff 0:17:03.440 --> 0:17:05.000 to do. We're gonna talk with the Night Owl about 0:17:05.000 --> 0:17:07.320 the NBA free agency. I'm gonna give you my World 0:17:07.359 --> 0:17:10.680 Cup quarterfinal preview, and we gotta give you my recap 0:17:10.680 --> 0:17:13.640 of the World Tallest Model.

Yes, there it is 0:18:25.359 --> 0:18:27.200 a little chronicle of bringing you back here on the 0:18:27.240 --> 0:18:29.800 Fantasy Freestyle, right here on the world famous, an award 0:18:29.840 --> 0:18:33.280 winning fantasy sports radio Network. I'm your boy, Dame Martinez. 0:18:34.600 --> 0:18:36.479 You already know what it is. We're having fun here. 0:18:36.480 --> 0:18:39.080 We're breaking down the a f C West a little bit. 0:18:39.119 --> 0:18:41.200 I told you my take on the Broncos. I love 0:18:41.320 --> 0:18:43.680 Royce Freeman. I am going to have shares of Royce 0:18:43.760 --> 0:18:46.520 Freeman on my squads left and right. And then we 0:18:46.520 --> 0:18:49.000 talked about the Kansas City Chiefs with Patty. That's my 0:18:49.040 --> 0:18:52.359 homes but I'd be a little bit leery about the 0:18:52.440 --> 0:18:55.680 Chiefs overall. I am not touching their season win total 0:18:55.760 --> 0:18:59.600 at eight and a half. Also with the season win 0:18:59.680 --> 0:19:02.240 total of eight and a half is the Oakland Raiders 0:19:02.280 --> 0:19:04.320 in their last season in the Bay. I'm telling you 0:19:04.400 --> 0:19:07.320 right now, if I was you, I would run. I 0:19:07.320 --> 0:19:11.040 would not walk. I would run to my bookie dot Ag, 0:19:11.359 --> 0:19:15.240 and I would lay the under on the Oakland Raiders. 0:19:15.280 --> 0:19:17.800 I think this team is gazy. You need to fugu 0:19:17.840 --> 0:19:21.320 out about the Raiders this year. Yeah beast mode, you 0:19:21.359 --> 0:19:26.000 know for his hometown. Yeah, Gruden comes back, bring some excitement, 0:19:26.000 --> 0:19:27.800 good old Chucky. You'll make you want to run through 0:19:27.800 --> 0:19:32.000 a wall. But really, where is this team good? Outside 0:19:32.040 --> 0:19:35.480 of say the offensive line. Derek Carr has taken a 0:19:35.520 --> 0:19:38.320 step back since that injury. You know I'm seeing him 0:19:38.320 --> 0:19:41.400 go right now? Is like quarterbacks seventeen in some drafts. 0:19:41.440 --> 0:19:43.800 I don't know that he's right, And to be quite honest, 0:19:43.840 --> 0:19:45.280 I don't know that John Gruden is the guy to 0:19:45.320 --> 0:19:48.600 cultivate him. Spider too, why banana and whatnot? Right at 0:19:48.720 --> 0:19:51.640 running back? Okay, sure, Marshawn Lynch, I can see him 0:19:51.640 --> 0:19:54.600 being a back end r B two, especially he's gonna 0:19:54.600 --> 0:19:56.840 be my diamond in the rough for this team. Okay, 0:19:56.880 --> 0:19:59.840 I think beast mode can actually be some value. I 0:20:00.000 --> 0:20:01.639 think he is a back end r B two. And 0:20:01.720 --> 0:20:05.119 here's why. As we move along to where more and 0:20:05.160 --> 0:20:08.399 more teams are in time shares and committees, it's going 0:20:08.440 --> 0:20:11.240 to be the guy who you can more depend on 0:20:11.359 --> 0:20:14.200 for touchdowns that is going to get you points. So 0:20:14.280 --> 0:20:17.639 in Detroit, I like LGBT rights, like Garrett Blunt, and 0:20:17.720 --> 0:20:21.000 in Oakland the same theory. I like Marshawn Lynch. I 0:20:21.040 --> 0:20:22.960 think he could be a back end r B two 0:20:23.280 --> 0:20:25.040 for your team. Will he do a lot in the 0:20:25.040 --> 0:20:28.520 passing game? Not necessarily, but I can easily see him 0:20:28.520 --> 0:20:32.119 with another season of nine nine hundred fifty yards and 0:20:32.280 --> 0:20:35.399 eight or nine touchdowns, and that in itself gets you 0:20:35.440 --> 0:20:37.960 to r B two territory. When we talk to the 0:20:37.960 --> 0:20:41.760 fool gazes, Jordy Nelson is a fool gaze for me. 0:20:41.800 --> 0:20:44.080 You need to forget about Jordy Nelson. This is not 0:20:44.200 --> 0:20:47.280 two thousand fourteen where he was that dude. This is 0:20:47.320 --> 0:20:50.000 not two thousand fifteen where he had great chemistry with 0:20:50.000 --> 0:20:54.359 Aaron Rodgers. Last year you saw that Jordy Nelson was 0:20:54.440 --> 0:20:56.520 not the same guy. And to be quite honest, a 0:20:56.520 --> 0:20:59.680 lot of Jordy Nelson's production, in my opinion, last year 0:21:00.040 --> 0:21:02.760 is because straight the chemistry he had with Aaron Rodgers 0:21:03.000 --> 0:21:06.119 back shoulder throws, red zone kind of targets where they 0:21:06.160 --> 0:21:08.359 have a feel. That is not the case with a 0:21:08.359 --> 0:21:11.520 new quarterback. Jordy Nelson, in my opinion, is there to 0:21:11.680 --> 0:21:15.480 teach professionalism to Martavis Bryant and a Marii Cooper who 0:21:15.480 --> 0:21:18.240 has got something going on. In my opinion between the 0:21:18.320 --> 0:21:21.480 ears with his drops, I always thought Crabtree was a 0:21:21.480 --> 0:21:24.320 better fantasy receiver than a Marii Cooper. Will talk about 0:21:24.320 --> 0:21:26.840 that a little bit later on in the show as 0:21:26.840 --> 0:21:28.680 I break out the remix of the Trap Game. My 0:21:28.880 --> 0:21:31.359 estros forgot amr A. But I do think that Jordy 0:21:31.440 --> 0:21:34.080 Nelson is who Gazzy because if anything, they are going 0:21:34.119 --> 0:21:39.280 to want Cooper and uh Martavis Bryant to be their 0:21:39.359 --> 0:21:42.320 dudes in Oakland. I like Lynch, I think he has 0:21:42.320 --> 0:21:44.320 some value for you because a lot of people think 0:21:44.520 --> 0:21:46.880 that he's done. But I think the touchdowns will still 0:21:46.920 --> 0:21:49.439 play in fantasy. But I would take right now, go 0:21:49.480 --> 0:21:52.639 on over and grab the under on the Oakland Raiders. 0:21:52.640 --> 0:21:54.720 And at least one team left in this division, and 0:21:54.760 --> 0:21:57.160 it's the Los Angeles Charges And I gotta tell you something. 0:21:57.760 --> 0:21:59.679 And I know the Unicorn is not gonna like hearing this, 0:22:00.840 --> 0:22:04.960 but last year, literally at this point last year, when 0:22:05.000 --> 0:22:07.520 I was doing my division by division previews and I 0:22:07.560 --> 0:22:09.679 was doing the NFC East, I was like, you know what, 0:22:11.400 --> 0:22:14.560 I kind of like the Philadelphia Eagles. You can ask 0:22:14.600 --> 0:22:17.639 my man JP down there, my best friend forever, my 0:22:17.760 --> 0:22:21.080 man Chris Bovona, the manimal I they could play the tape. 0:22:21.080 --> 0:22:23.600 Even I was like, I like the Eagles. I think 0:22:23.600 --> 0:22:26.320 they will be in the NFC Championship Game or beyond. 0:22:26.359 --> 0:22:30.120 And I said why because I liked their talent at 0:22:30.160 --> 0:22:34.480 every single position. There is talent on this roster. And 0:22:34.520 --> 0:22:36.679 I also said last year that I thought the Eagles 0:22:36.680 --> 0:22:38.600 were the only team in the NFC East that was 0:22:38.640 --> 0:22:43.600 not regressing. I can say a lot of the same 0:22:43.600 --> 0:22:46.720 things about the Los Angeles Chargers this year. I think 0:22:46.720 --> 0:22:50.160 they have legit talent at every position. Philip Rivers, Yeah, 0:22:50.160 --> 0:22:53.560 that'll work. Melvin Gordon year, that'll work. Keenan Allen and 0:22:53.600 --> 0:22:57.000 the Williams is trispant, Yeah that'll work. Yes, I know 0:22:57.080 --> 0:22:59.480 they lost Hunter Henry, but I also believe this is 0:22:59.480 --> 0:23:01.840 going to be a top five defense. I don't think 0:23:01.840 --> 0:23:04.160 there is a pair of edge rushers that will get 0:23:04.160 --> 0:23:07.440 more pressure in the a f C than Joey Bosa 0:23:07.560 --> 0:23:11.440 and Melvin Ingram. Yes. That includes in Denver with Von 0:23:11.560 --> 0:23:16.879 Miller and Bradley Chubb. Yes, that includes in Houston with j. J. Watt, 0:23:16.880 --> 0:23:20.479 Whitney Merciless and Jadeveon Clowney. I think the Chargers can 0:23:20.520 --> 0:23:23.439 get the most pressure on the quarterback in the a 0:23:23.560 --> 0:23:27.040 f C. I also think the Chargers have the best 0:23:27.040 --> 0:23:30.560 set of corner backs in the a f C. You're 0:23:30.600 --> 0:23:33.320 talking about Casey Hayward, who was literally, as per Pro 0:23:33.440 --> 0:23:39.200 Football Focus last year, rated the top cornerback in the NFL. Okay, 0:23:39.359 --> 0:23:41.879 don't forget about guys like Desmond King and their other 0:23:41.920 --> 0:23:44.880 rookie you played well, And don't forget about Jason Varette, 0:23:45.000 --> 0:23:47.440 who has been a Pro Bowler and is oft injured 0:23:47.440 --> 0:23:50.240 but should be healthy this year. I love then also 0:23:50.320 --> 0:23:52.480 what they did in the draft with the number seventeen 0:23:52.560 --> 0:23:56.080 overall pick, getting Darwin James. This guy is a Swiss 0:23:56.200 --> 0:23:59.840 army knife that I believe can cover Rob Gronkowski in 0:23:59.880 --> 0:24:05.080 the playoffs and make it work for the Los Angeles Charges. 0:24:05.080 --> 0:24:07.160 What I'll also say is this, And you saw this 0:24:08.040 --> 0:24:11.720 when the Fantasy Sports Network they did their mock draft yesterday, 0:24:11.840 --> 0:24:13.720 and when you got a bunch of experts in the room, 0:24:13.720 --> 0:24:17.439 all loo gonna wait on quarterback. You're getting legit quarterbacks 0:24:17.440 --> 0:24:20.800 in round seven, eight, nine, and ten. And I'm gonna 0:24:20.800 --> 0:24:23.359 tell you something. Add Philip Rivers to the list of 0:24:23.359 --> 0:24:26.600 guys that are the reason why I will be waiting 0:24:26.600 --> 0:24:28.960 on quarterback. I'm telling you, guys, and if I've said 0:24:28.960 --> 0:24:31.199 it once, I've said it a thousand times. Here with 0:24:31.200 --> 0:24:33.920 the stats overbeat Cipher. If I'm in a twelve team league, 0:24:34.400 --> 0:24:37.600 I will be the eleventh or twelfth guy to draft 0:24:37.640 --> 0:24:41.320 a quarterback. You're telling me I can wait and I 0:24:41.359 --> 0:24:46.480 could have my choice of Philip Rivers, Matthew Stafford, uh, 0:24:46.600 --> 0:24:49.920 Patty Mahomes, you know, and all these guys whichever one 0:24:50.000 --> 0:24:53.680 falls to meet Carson Wentz even this is another Rivers 0:24:53.760 --> 0:24:57.320 is another example of why I will wait on quarterbacks. 0:24:57.320 --> 0:25:00.240 So I believe Philip Rivers is a diamond the rough. 0:25:00.280 --> 0:25:01.680 I'm gonna tell you who the other diamond and the 0:25:01.760 --> 0:25:04.320 rough is for me on the Los Angeles Chargers, and 0:25:04.359 --> 0:25:07.920 it's Mike Williams, second year wide receiver at a Clemson. 0:25:08.000 --> 0:25:10.520 This guy is a boss. This guy was a first 0:25:10.600 --> 0:25:13.280 round draft pick of the Chargers at a Clemson. It 0:25:13.320 --> 0:25:15.240 was him and to Shaun Watson who almost like single 0:25:15.280 --> 0:25:18.159 handedly beat Alabama in the championship game a couple of 0:25:18.200 --> 0:25:20.600 years back. Yes, he had the back injury and stuff, 0:25:20.600 --> 0:25:24.880 but I think Williams stands to benefit the most from 0:25:24.880 --> 0:25:28.240 the Hunter Henry injury. Williams. Mike Williams, and excuse me 0:25:28.280 --> 0:25:30.040 when I say Williams with the Chargers right now, I'm 0:25:30.040 --> 0:25:32.680 talking about Mike Williams. Tyrrell Williams is also out there. 0:25:32.720 --> 0:25:35.040 But I like Mike Williams, and I like Mike Williams 0:25:35.080 --> 0:25:36.520 to be the guy that takes some of those red 0:25:36.600 --> 0:25:38.720 zone targets. I like Mike Williams to be the guy 0:25:38.720 --> 0:25:40.800 that takes some of those third down move the chains 0:25:40.880 --> 0:25:43.399 kind of looks from Philip Rivers. I think he's the 0:25:43.440 --> 0:25:45.720 guy that can get you six touchdowns. And I think 0:25:45.800 --> 0:25:48.920 Mike Williams is going at value. He is a diamond 0:25:48.920 --> 0:25:52.080 and the rough. For the Los Angeles I almost said 0:25:52.080 --> 0:25:56.119 San Diego, but for the Los Angeles Chargers go, Chargers Go. 0:25:56.600 --> 0:25:58.399 I told you how much I love their defense. I 0:25:58.400 --> 0:26:01.320 think they are top three defense for fantasy. And I 0:26:01.359 --> 0:26:04.879 will say this also if you follow the Chargers, and 0:26:04.920 --> 0:26:09.480 I know some people out there do see you. Um 0:26:09.640 --> 0:26:14.280 for years, the Chargers have been snake bit, ridiculous collapses 0:26:14.320 --> 0:26:17.280 at the end of games, ridiculous starts to the season, 0:26:17.359 --> 0:26:19.679 and then they pick it up at the end, missing 0:26:19.800 --> 0:26:22.520 field goals left and right, young wing cool or whoever 0:26:22.560 --> 0:26:24.480 it is, right, if they put some field goals through 0:26:24.520 --> 0:26:27.000 the uprights and get off to a hot start, I 0:26:27.040 --> 0:26:29.560 can see this team. I actually believe the Chargers are 0:26:29.600 --> 0:26:32.440 the class of the a f C West. I take 0:26:32.520 --> 0:26:35.000 the over on the Chargers there over under is nine. 0:26:35.000 --> 0:26:37.280 I think this is a double digit win franchise right 0:26:37.320 --> 0:26:39.000 now this year and when it comes to the a 0:26:39.080 --> 0:26:41.840 f C. I'm telling you right now, I am trying 0:26:41.880 --> 0:26:45.160 to beat Tom Brady and I'm looking for veteran quarterbacks 0:26:45.200 --> 0:26:47.440 on their last ride to be the guys to do it. 0:26:47.680 --> 0:26:50.760 There's one in Pittsburgh, and there is one with the 0:26:50.840 --> 0:26:53.800 Charges Philip Rivers and gonna be scared going into Gillette 0:26:53.840 --> 0:26:57.879 in mid January. I love me some Los Angeles Chargers 0:26:58.240 --> 0:27:01.720 this year provided health obviously, and they've been snake bitten 0:27:01.720 --> 0:27:04.480 in that way as well. But give me the Chargers 0:27:04.520 --> 0:27:08.719 as the class of the a f C West. All right, 0:27:08.800 --> 0:27:10.199 let's keep it moving. I want to do right now. 0:27:10.240 --> 0:27:12.600 I want to bring in my man JP, the night Owl. 0:27:12.880 --> 0:27:15.520 He's down there in the fantasy pit of misery. Delay. 0:27:15.640 --> 0:27:17.560 Delay to my boy JP. I want to talk a 0:27:17.600 --> 0:27:20.600 little bit of NBA with him. Okay, we talked about, 0:27:21.119 --> 0:27:23.240 you know, free agency, getting into it with the draft 0:27:23.320 --> 0:27:25.200 and stuff like that. We talked about that with JP. 0:27:25.560 --> 0:27:27.040 And I want to remind you guys right now, we 0:27:27.080 --> 0:27:30.440 gotta pull question up. What is your reaction to Boogie 0:27:30.440 --> 0:27:33.400 Cousins signing with the Warriors. Is the NBA going too 0:27:33.400 --> 0:27:36.840 far with their super teams? What is the salary cap 0:27:36.880 --> 0:27:40.560 for if not to prevent this exact thing? So right 0:27:40.600 --> 0:27:44.320 now of you says it ruins the NBA for you. 0:27:44.720 --> 0:27:48.920 I don't disagree. They say they love Golden State. Answering 0:27:48.920 --> 0:27:52.920 the move of Lebron to Los Angeles and say, hey, 0:27:53.000 --> 0:27:55.399 let's just wait and see, let's see what happens on 0:27:55.480 --> 0:27:58.400 the court. Right the off season is not over. There 0:27:58.400 --> 0:28:00.680 could be some other moves made a team like Los 0:28:00.720 --> 0:28:03.280 Angeles by a team like Houston or teams in the East. 0:28:04.040 --> 0:28:06.879 And also, listen, Boogie Cousins is coming back from an 0:28:06.880 --> 0:28:09.879 achilles injury, okay, and that is not easy, especially in 0:28:09.920 --> 0:28:12.200 the n b A. I don't think there's many examples 0:28:12.200 --> 0:28:15.359 in the NBA of someone coming back effectively. Maybe Wesley 0:28:15.520 --> 0:28:17.919 Matthews is one that I can think of. Maybe my 0:28:17.960 --> 0:28:20.520 man JP or my best friend forever Mike Florio can 0:28:20.520 --> 0:28:22.639 tell me a little bit otherwise. But now, at this point, 0:28:22.880 --> 0:28:26.840 we bring in my guy, j P the Night Owl. Okay, 0:28:26.840 --> 0:28:31.280 he's my basketball, my new basketball. Corresponding JP, fifty one 0:28:31.400 --> 0:28:33.480 percent of the poll right now, we got over a 0:28:33.560 --> 0:28:38.400 hundred votes are saying that yes, this Boogie Cousins signing 0:28:38.560 --> 0:28:42.880 Ruins the NBA for them. Are you part of that? JP? 0:28:43.320 --> 0:28:45.240 I am, But I do think I differ a lot 0:28:45.280 --> 0:28:48.440 from that. And tell me more so, where I come from. 0:28:48.480 --> 0:28:50.080 Is I'm not mad at anyone or I'm not mad 0:28:50.120 --> 0:28:51.840 at the league. I'm not mad at the Warriors. I'm 0:28:51.840 --> 0:28:54.080 not even mad at Boogie Cousins. It's the right decision. 0:28:54.560 --> 0:28:56.400 It just kind of sucks as a fan to see 0:28:56.400 --> 0:28:59.040 that it's happening. That's where I take it from. So 0:28:59.120 --> 0:29:01.560 why does it suck? Though? Right You're you're telling me 0:29:01.600 --> 0:29:03.920 it sucks because of kind of like the competitive balance 0:29:03.920 --> 0:29:05.800 of it. All Right, you have we have an essence. 0:29:06.000 --> 0:29:09.400 We have rendered the regular season obsolete, you know what 0:29:09.440 --> 0:29:12.080 I mean? And that you know, with the with the 0:29:12.120 --> 0:29:14.440 option on the pole ruins the NBA. For me, maybe 0:29:14.480 --> 0:29:17.880 that like that ruins You know, what is it like 0:29:18.200 --> 0:29:21.400 six to seven months of viewing if you're a big 0:29:21.520 --> 0:29:24.800 NBA fan and listen in October of last year, I 0:29:24.840 --> 0:29:26.840 was like, yo, wake me up when it's the Calves 0:29:26.840 --> 0:29:28.560 in the Warriors in the finals. You know what I mean? 0:29:29.200 --> 0:29:33.080 And so like, now you're rendering the NBA regular season 0:29:33.080 --> 0:29:36.720 pretty much obsolete. You're rending early playoffs Obsoletely, I'm gonna 0:29:36.720 --> 0:29:39.520 tell you right now, if all things are equal and 0:29:39.600 --> 0:29:44.000 stay the same, wake me up around Memorial Day next 0:29:44.080 --> 0:29:47.680 year when it is the Golden State Warriors and the 0:29:47.720 --> 0:29:51.360 Boston Celtics in the NBA Finals. In my opinion. Yeah, 0:29:51.400 --> 0:29:53.880 Philly's got a chance if Marquelle Folts can you know, 0:29:54.160 --> 0:29:58.000 find his shot. But don't sleep on the Boston Celtics. 0:29:58.000 --> 0:30:00.400 And you know, Kauai Leonard makes the will be on 0:30:00.440 --> 0:30:02.840 the move. But I agree with you you're saying it 0:30:02.960 --> 0:30:05.280 kind of does. Maybe it doesn't ruin it for you, 0:30:05.360 --> 0:30:08.800 but JP competitive balance is all out of whack, right, Yeah. 0:30:08.840 --> 0:30:11.320 I mean there wasn't much to say about it last year, 0:30:11.320 --> 0:30:13.000 but this is just kind of like another layer to 0:30:13.040 --> 0:30:14.920 it where it's like there's no team that's even close 0:30:15.000 --> 0:30:18.480 competitively to this team. So I'm sleeping through the NBA Finals. 0:30:19.360 --> 0:30:21.560 And that's the thing JP, like even the Rockets they 0:30:21.600 --> 0:30:24.760 lose Trevor Areza, you know that's an issue. Could Kauai 0:30:24.840 --> 0:30:27.680 make a big difference? Yes? Could there be some other 0:30:27.960 --> 0:30:30.200 move that's a big move that we don't know about 0:30:30.680 --> 0:30:33.880 that's gonna happened via trade, Anthony Davis on the move, 0:30:34.080 --> 0:30:37.840 you know, something like that, possible, Kyrie Irving on the 0:30:37.840 --> 0:30:41.320 move possible. But as it stands right now, pencil Meian 0:30:41.360 --> 0:30:44.920 for Golden State Boston as a NBA Finals And here's 0:30:44.920 --> 0:30:47.200 the other thing. Here's the here's that kind of the 0:30:47.200 --> 0:30:50.040 biggest stat that I saw that speaks to this, JP. 0:30:50.400 --> 0:30:52.400 Check this out, and I'd love to hear your reaction 0:30:52.440 --> 0:30:56.160 of this. The presume starting five of the Golden State Warriors. Right, 0:30:56.200 --> 0:31:01.480 so we're now talking about Steph Curry, Clay Thompson, Kevin Durant, 0:31:02.080 --> 0:31:07.360 Draymond Green, and Boogie Cousins as the five, the five 0:31:07.440 --> 0:31:10.040 of them combined, JP, check this out. The five of 0:31:10.080 --> 0:31:15.000 them combined in their careers have a combined twenty seven 0:31:15.040 --> 0:31:19.040 All Star Game appearances, all right, JP? Seven combined among 0:31:19.080 --> 0:31:23.920 those five. That's a lot, right, But check this out, JP. 0:31:25.200 --> 0:31:32.840 The entire Southwest Division of the NBA and the entire 0:31:33.200 --> 0:31:40.280 Central Division of the NBA. Ten NBA teams combined have 0:31:40.320 --> 0:31:43.920 a combined twenty two All Star appearances among them. JP. 0:31:44.000 --> 0:31:46.360 That's ridiculous. That's your competitive imbalance right there. Yeah, and 0:31:46.400 --> 0:31:48.280 make it all probably go combined their teams and still 0:31:48.280 --> 0:31:50.080 lose to the Warrior, That's what I'm saying. Should. I 0:31:50.120 --> 0:31:52.200 saw so much stuff on Twitter. You know, my my 0:31:52.240 --> 0:31:55.080 two favorite ones JP were one I heard that on 0:31:55.280 --> 0:31:58.200 NBA two K, You're not even allowed to sign to 0:31:58.320 --> 0:32:01.720 Marcus Cousins to the mid level extepen they like blocked it. Literally, 0:32:01.840 --> 0:32:03.360 if you try and do that on the video game, 0:32:03.440 --> 0:32:06.040 they will not let it happen, saying that it's unfair. 0:32:06.760 --> 0:32:08.760 The other thing that I thought was interesting, and I 0:32:08.800 --> 0:32:10.440 will pose that as a question. Maybe I should put 0:32:10.440 --> 0:32:13.840 this on as a poll question next week. UM. I 0:32:13.840 --> 0:32:16.440 saw someone on Twitter say that, you know, the United 0:32:16.480 --> 0:32:19.640 States should, in essence, just send the Golden State Warriors 0:32:19.680 --> 0:32:22.600 to represent American Olympics. What do you think about that? JP? 0:32:22.960 --> 0:32:25.200 They'd probably win that too, because they'd have their team 0:32:25.240 --> 0:32:27.520 chemistry and stuff like that. Right, Yeah, they'd be better 0:32:27.520 --> 0:32:29.480 than the Olympic team. They have the chemistry and they've 0:32:29.480 --> 0:32:31.560 got five Olympians. You know, That's what I'm saying. And 0:32:31.560 --> 0:32:34.200 you're you know, you're a millennial, JP, you're a video 0:32:34.240 --> 0:32:36.760 game player. You're putting me onto that sixth Night or 0:32:36.760 --> 0:32:38.600 whatever it is that the kids are playing these days, 0:32:38.640 --> 0:32:42.719 that seven night game, that three night game, whatever it is. Um, so, 0:32:42.800 --> 0:32:44.360 what do you think about this? You can't even sign 0:32:44.400 --> 0:32:47.320 Boogie Cousins in MBA two K for the salary that 0:32:47.360 --> 0:32:49.560 he actually signed with the game. Is like, no, no, no, 0:32:49.600 --> 0:32:51.920 that's a cheat code. That's not fair. What do you 0:32:51.920 --> 0:32:53.920 think I play a lot of two. K Okay, I'll 0:32:53.920 --> 0:32:55.480 tell you they won't even let you come close to 0:32:55.520 --> 0:32:58.640 this team. That's what I'm saying, right, It's absolutely ridiculous. 0:32:58.720 --> 0:33:00.600 All right, So JP, I gotta ask you. You know. 0:33:01.080 --> 0:33:03.240 The other thing I think is interesting and people may 0:33:03.400 --> 0:33:06.600 may or may not realize this, It was GM Lebron 0:33:07.360 --> 0:33:09.240 that cleared the way for the Lakers to sign him. 0:33:09.360 --> 0:33:11.480 If you guys remember I think it was what January 0:33:11.560 --> 0:33:13.440 or whatever by the trading deadline this year, Remember, the 0:33:13.480 --> 0:33:16.880 Calves and the Lakers made a trade, right, the Calves 0:33:16.880 --> 0:33:21.000 getting you know, Clarkson and Hood and some other guys 0:33:21.040 --> 0:33:24.800 Isaiah Thomas went out there. It was that trade that 0:33:24.880 --> 0:33:27.920 cleared the books and created enough space for the Lakers 0:33:27.960 --> 0:33:30.840 this summer to sign not one but two Max guys, 0:33:30.880 --> 0:33:34.080 and then they go on and spend that money on Lebron. Hey, JP, 0:33:34.280 --> 0:33:37.200 to me, this is GM Lebron just really puppeteering the 0:33:37.440 --> 0:33:41.479 entire NBA, creating the conditions for him to then sign 0:33:41.640 --> 0:33:44.360 in l A. Then they get called well, Pope also 0:33:44.480 --> 0:33:47.280 a client of the same you know, management company and 0:33:47.320 --> 0:33:52.480 things like that. This is Lebron just stacking the deck, right, Yeah, 0:33:52.480 --> 0:33:54.720 he gets he gets Ray gen Rondo as well. So 0:33:54.760 --> 0:33:57.040 now there's not one, but two point guards in the 0:33:57.080 --> 0:33:59.280 for the Lakers who can't shoot a lick. Along with 0:33:59.320 --> 0:34:03.120 triple b NZ old ball JP, the next domino to 0:34:03.200 --> 0:34:05.080 fall as before we go to break has to be 0:34:05.120 --> 0:34:08.319 Kauai Leonard. Right, So what do you think, what do 0:34:08.360 --> 0:34:10.319 you think happens there? And what do you think, if 0:34:10.360 --> 0:34:12.600 any are the big moves that can also contribute to 0:34:12.640 --> 0:34:15.319 a shift in competitive balance? Is Kauai? Is that the 0:34:15.360 --> 0:34:17.920 only other piece? It maybe a Kyrie Irving trade? What 0:34:17.960 --> 0:34:20.800 do you anticipate or expect before the next time we 0:34:20.840 --> 0:34:23.600 have fantasy freestyle here? I'd say there's two players on 0:34:23.640 --> 0:34:27.200 the planet that can effectively guard Kevin Durant. One is 0:34:27.239 --> 0:34:30.000 Kawuhi Leonard. Yeah, one Kauai and one Lebron. You put 0:34:30.000 --> 0:34:31.560 them on the same team, that's a problem. I don't 0:34:31.560 --> 0:34:33.600 care what the other team looks like. So that's the 0:34:33.640 --> 0:34:36.239 only thing that would even like wake me up absolutely, 0:34:36.239 --> 0:34:39.120 And you know, Kauai Leonard to Los Angeles Native and 0:34:39.160 --> 0:34:41.720 it looks like they are trying to make that happen. 0:34:41.760 --> 0:34:44.399 But listen, if I'm Greg Popovitch and the Spurs, why 0:34:44.560 --> 0:34:47.600 in the hell am I trading Kawuahi Leonard to my 0:34:47.680 --> 0:34:50.360 competitor to make a team better than me in the West. 0:34:50.400 --> 0:34:53.719 I'm telling you right now, if I'm Popovich, the conversation 0:34:54.000 --> 0:35:00.560 start with Brandon Ingram and my boy and Kyle Cool Kosma. 0:35:00.800 --> 0:35:03.200 You can keep Alonzo though, you can keep Alonzo though, 0:35:03.239 --> 0:35:06.080 I'll take Ingram and I'll take uh, you know, I'll 0:35:06.120 --> 0:35:08.560 take Kuzma. These are guys that play the position in 0:35:08.719 --> 0:35:12.880 essence that Kauai would be vacating for San Antonio, so Yo. 0:35:13.000 --> 0:35:15.600 Let me know right now on Twitter at spitting speeds 0:35:15.600 --> 0:35:17.400 what you think, if you think it ruins the NBA 0:35:17.560 --> 0:35:19.600 for you, or if you like the kind of arms 0:35:19.719 --> 0:35:22.440 race that's happening in the Eastern Conference, I will tell 0:35:22.480 --> 0:35:25.240 you the smart money is on Boston and Philly because 0:35:25.239 --> 0:35:28.360 they're gonna have a much easier path there.

Two more real quick point on that Boogie 0:36:59.200 --> 0:37:01.839 Cousins thing. I gotta tell you something, and big shout 0:37:01.840 --> 0:37:03.520 out to my guys down there in the fantasy pit 0:37:03.640 --> 0:37:06.239 of misery. You know, they hit me up on the 0:37:06.280 --> 0:37:08.359 g chat. You know, that's how we communicate with each 0:37:08.360 --> 0:37:10.560 other live on the radio. If I was the fantasy 0:37:10.560 --> 0:37:14.440 executive right now, be like no machine machine. But uh, 0:37:14.680 --> 0:37:16.759 down there in Dilley, Dilley, they told me. Oh. The 0:37:16.880 --> 0:37:20.279 Lakers also said not to Boogie at five million a year. 0:37:20.280 --> 0:37:22.839 And that's another good point. Okay, Boogie Cousins, I hear 0:37:22.880 --> 0:37:25.920 in reports that he did not get a single offer 0:37:25.960 --> 0:37:29.760 in free agency, maybe because of the Achilles, maybe because 0:37:29.760 --> 0:37:32.920 he's a mercurial talent, but I digress. The thing is, listen, 0:37:33.520 --> 0:37:35.279 if he didn't get on any other offers, how are 0:37:35.280 --> 0:37:37.359 you gonna hate the Golden State Worries for being like, hey, 0:37:37.360 --> 0:37:39.880 we'll give you a midlevel exception, you know. And I 0:37:39.920 --> 0:37:41.880 think that if you're also if you're a Boogie Cousins 0:37:42.000 --> 0:37:44.160 and you're coming back from an Achilles injury. You know, 0:37:44.480 --> 0:37:46.360 I think this is a good look because the market 0:37:46.400 --> 0:37:48.680 wasn't there for you. You did not get a single offer, 0:37:49.560 --> 0:37:51.880 So mine as well get a little one year prove 0:37:51.960 --> 0:37:54.160 it deal. And if you're gonna go do that and 0:37:54.200 --> 0:37:57.480 you're gonna have one year to prove it, mine as 0:37:57.520 --> 0:37:59.919 well go to a situation where the conditions for six 0:38:00.080 --> 0:38:03.080 sess to make you look good are gonna be there. 0:38:03.120 --> 0:38:06.040 You know, he's gonna pull down twelve boards game with 0:38:06.120 --> 0:38:07.960 that team. You know, Draymond is the only one who 0:38:07.960 --> 0:38:10.480 really rebounds there, right, so he's gonna have an opportunity. 0:38:10.800 --> 0:38:13.400 And uh, if I got my man, uh whoever I 0:38:13.400 --> 0:38:15.960 got down there, check this out. One of my boys 0:38:16.040 --> 0:38:18.279 just texted me something crazy, and at first I looked 0:38:18.280 --> 0:38:19.520 at it. I did a double take. But I want 0:38:19.560 --> 0:38:21.280 to share it right now with the stats over beat cipher. 0:38:21.280 --> 0:38:24.080 I think it's pretty funny. Uh, I heard it. I 0:38:24.120 --> 0:38:28.200 got a meme right now. It said breaking news, JR. 0:38:28.280 --> 0:38:31.640 Smith has agreed in principle with the Los Angeles Lakers, 0:38:31.880 --> 0:38:34.160 and then right after that it said what the Los 0:38:34.160 --> 0:38:37.720 Angeles Lakers did not agree in principle with j R. Smith? 0:38:38.080 --> 0:38:40.520 And that's probably what Lebron is feeling these days. He 0:38:40.640 --> 0:38:42.880 is happy to be gone. Big shout out to my 0:38:42.880 --> 0:38:45.520 man Kenneth Cashman and Rhodo where they were doing that Jr. 0:38:45.560 --> 0:38:48.560 Smith Lebron James shirt with the new logo. Gotta love 0:38:48.640 --> 0:38:51.000 that as well. All right, let's keep it moving here 0:38:51.000 --> 0:38:53.480 as we put the fun in functional sports radio. What 0:38:53.520 --> 0:38:54.920 I gotta do is I gotta tell you about this 0:38:54.960 --> 0:38:58.880 World Cup.

I'm going over here. Right now, I'm checking 0:39:10.000 --> 0:39:12.120 my balance on my bookie dot a G. I swear 0:39:12.160 --> 0:39:14.920 to you. I logged in today and I was like, oh, 0:39:14.920 --> 0:39:18.400 where's this extra money coming from? No doubt you know 0:39:18.440 --> 0:39:20.600 where it came from. It came from my bet to 0:39:20.680 --> 0:39:25.600 have my parlay to have Croatia and Belgium qualify for 0:39:25.760 --> 0:39:29.879 the quarterfinals. I have been telling you four weeks Croatia 0:39:30.200 --> 0:39:33.799 and Belgium are the non like favorites that you need 0:39:33.840 --> 0:39:36.759 to ride. Right now, there are eight teams left and 0:39:36.800 --> 0:39:40.360 my guys. Croatia and Belgium are still two of them. Croatia, 0:39:40.440 --> 0:39:42.080 I mean, Belgium is gonna have a tough one though. 0:39:43.000 --> 0:39:45.399 So let's look at their the quarterfinal matchups. There are 0:39:45.440 --> 0:39:47.360 four of them. I'm on over here right now on 0:39:47.480 --> 0:39:49.960 my bookie dot a g where you can enter the 0:39:49.960 --> 0:39:51.880 promo code f N T S Y and get a 0:39:51.880 --> 0:39:55.640 fifty deposit bonus on your deposit. You gotta like that, Okay, 0:39:55.640 --> 0:39:59.759 it starts, uh, the quarterfinals, the next round start on Friday, 0:40:00.080 --> 0:40:03.560 July six. We got two games. First game up France 0:40:05.719 --> 0:40:12.320 really against Uruguay, all right, Listen, Uruguay is a decent squad, okay, 0:40:12.600 --> 0:40:15.839 Uh Suarez Cavani. I like some of what Uruguay is doing. 0:40:15.920 --> 0:40:19.560 Uruguay is also a very very strong defensive team. I 0:40:19.560 --> 0:40:21.640 think they've let up something like one goal in this 0:40:21.840 --> 0:40:23.919 entire World Cup, and that was in the last round 0:40:24.160 --> 0:40:27.560 in their match up against Russia. No, against Portugal. I 0:40:27.600 --> 0:40:30.640 do believe in Uruguay is a very very solid defensive squad. 0:40:31.640 --> 0:40:34.359 But France is no joke, all right, I gotta take France. Listen, 0:40:34.360 --> 0:40:37.960 if you saw the round the sixteen, that knockout phase, Yo, 0:40:38.360 --> 0:40:41.080 Mbope is just going over the top. He's just quicker 0:40:41.080 --> 0:40:44.080 than everybody. He's nasty. I like France to get back 0:40:44.120 --> 0:40:47.360 between the aging center backs of Uruguay. I like France. 0:40:47.680 --> 0:40:51.280 They are a minus one oh four favorite. That's pretty 0:40:51.360 --> 0:40:54.920 much even money. Okay, you got Uruguay at plus three fifty, 0:40:55.080 --> 0:40:58.280 the draw at plus two seventeen, and the draw is interesting. 0:40:58.320 --> 0:40:59.840 You can still have a draw even in these not 0:41:00.000 --> 0:41:02.239 out rounds when they go to the penalty kicks. And 0:41:02.239 --> 0:41:05.000 that's something I didn't realize at first. Okay, So these 0:41:05.040 --> 0:41:08.400 lines are about in ninety minutes, okay, and that's very important. 0:41:08.440 --> 0:41:10.880 So like if you see these extra time games like 0:41:10.960 --> 0:41:13.920 you see Columbia England today extra time. You saw a 0:41:13.960 --> 0:41:15.839 lot of extra time games that go to penalty kicks, 0:41:16.040 --> 0:41:18.200 you lose if you bet one of these guys. This 0:41:18.280 --> 0:41:21.360 isn't assuming in ninety minutes. But I would go ahead 0:41:21.400 --> 0:41:23.960 and take France over your aguide to advance to the 0:41:24.000 --> 0:41:28.000 semifinals from the early Friday game, second game, and boy, 0:41:28.120 --> 0:41:30.520 this is the one. This is the one that's really 0:41:30.520 --> 0:41:33.160 going to decide a lot of stuff for me, for 0:41:33.239 --> 0:41:36.480 me personally, And if you follow, that's over beat Stifer. 0:41:36.680 --> 0:41:39.360 If you've been following me and you've got more money 0:41:39.400 --> 0:41:43.080 in your my booky dat a g account, and this 0:41:43.120 --> 0:41:45.400 one is gonna be a big one for you. We 0:41:45.520 --> 0:41:52.400 got Belgium, Mos Squad, Lukaku, the Brewing Right, Um Hazard 0:41:52.680 --> 0:41:57.799 and others, Flani you know and others company. So they 0:41:57.800 --> 0:42:00.880 got Brazil. They got Brazil in this round. And listen, 0:42:00.960 --> 0:42:04.720 Brazil is a deserving favorite. But I gotta tell you something. 0:42:05.200 --> 0:42:08.359 I'm riding with my boys on Belgium. I think Brazil, Yeah, 0:42:08.440 --> 0:42:11.000 they've looked I but they haven't looked like these world 0:42:11.040 --> 0:42:14.480 beaters overall favorites, like they're build up to be. Belgium 0:42:14.520 --> 0:42:18.640 has just as many world class players. Belgium has studs 0:42:18.800 --> 0:42:22.520 up front. And if you saw the game against Japan, 0:42:22.560 --> 0:42:25.919 they were down to nothing, had a furious comeback during 0:42:26.000 --> 0:42:29.520 that game. Three two. I think Belgium can score with anybody. 0:42:29.840 --> 0:42:31.839 I would like two things. I like Belgium in this game. 0:42:31.880 --> 0:42:37.040 I understand if you don't. But in this game. Over 0:42:37.160 --> 0:42:39.920 under for this game is two and a half. I'm 0:42:39.960 --> 0:42:42.360 taking the over. There will be three goals scored in 0:42:42.360 --> 0:42:46.160 this game. Belgium can score and Brazil can score as well. 0:42:46.400 --> 0:42:48.960 This I I see as a two one game. Okay, 0:42:49.000 --> 0:42:50.960 so I like the over in this game. You know, 0:42:51.040 --> 0:42:54.160 I like Belgium, but I've got already, I've got staking 0:42:54.200 --> 0:42:57.719 them already, you know, to uh advance. So I'm not 0:42:57.760 --> 0:42:59.440 gonna lay this. I'm not gonna hedge on this. I 0:42:59.520 --> 0:43:02.160 like the r in that game. Then when we go 0:43:02.239 --> 0:43:07.200 to Saturday, you got another one of my teams, Crochha. 0:43:07.400 --> 0:43:11.520 They're up against Russia. I don't know if there's collusion 0:43:11.560 --> 0:43:13.440 going on or not. That's the only thing that causes 0:43:13.480 --> 0:43:15.760 me concerned. I like that Croatia has to face Russia 0:43:15.760 --> 0:43:19.040 instead of Spain. But listen, they're in Russia. You know, 0:43:19.120 --> 0:43:22.239 Putin's gonna be watching. You know, He's got his trolls, 0:43:22.440 --> 0:43:24.960 you know, and his bots farming, you know, like all 0:43:24.960 --> 0:43:29.439 the stray dogs are gonna be like coordinating something. So my, my, 0:43:29.440 --> 0:43:32.480 my crew of Croatia with a racketicic and you know 0:43:32.600 --> 0:43:34.719 some of the other guys, they are up against it. 0:43:35.080 --> 0:43:37.440 They are, however, the favorites, and I hope and I 0:43:37.480 --> 0:43:40.840 love Croatia to move on. In the last quarter final, 0:43:41.080 --> 0:43:44.080 you're gonna have England, who beat Columbia today in penalty 0:43:44.160 --> 0:43:48.080 kicks up against Sweden. I think, you know, England's got 0:43:48.080 --> 0:43:49.879 some mojo right now. I think they are the better 0:43:49.920 --> 0:43:52.640 side lookout for Harry Kane. I like England, so right 0:43:52.640 --> 0:43:59.120 now my semifinals would be England verse Croatia and Belgium 0:43:59.160 --> 0:44:03.560 and France. I got France, Belgium, Croatia and England as 0:44:03.640 --> 0:44:05.920 my final four, and then I'm telling you you right 0:44:05.960 --> 0:44:08.120 now you may still be able to get there's a 0:44:08.160 --> 0:44:10.160 prop bet right now when my bookie dot A g 0:44:10.760 --> 0:44:14.160 the continent of the winner, Europe and South America are 0:44:14.160 --> 0:44:16.800 pretty much the big choices. You know, you get North America, Asia. 0:44:16.840 --> 0:44:20.000 They were options as well, but I like France, Belgium, 0:44:20.239 --> 0:44:24.880 Croatia and England to be the final four, all representing Europe. 0:44:24.880 --> 0:44:28.320 Go ahead, lay money heavily on the favorite that is Europe. 0:44:28.360 --> 0:44:29.960 Your only options for the rest of the world of 0:44:30.000 --> 0:44:34.759 Brazil and uh Uruguay. Right so, you know, take this 0:44:34.840 --> 0:44:37.120 Europe bet and then maybe lay some shekels on Brazil 0:44:37.160 --> 0:44:38.840 if you want to hedge. That's what I'm telling you 0:44:38.960 --> 0:44:44.319 right now. France, Belgium, Croatia and England. Unfortunately for some 0:44:44.800 --> 0:44:47.440 I think we'll make it all right. Let's bring him 0:44:47.440 --> 0:44:50.359 my man Danny Otto here. If you are a fan 0:44:50.440 --> 0:44:52.920 of the Fantasy Freestyle. And if you have been watching 0:44:52.920 --> 0:44:54.959 in the last few episodes, you remember when a couple 0:44:54.960 --> 0:44:57.040 of weeks ago, we're just celebrating the World Cup and 0:44:57.080 --> 0:45:00.560 the international flavor of the Fantasy Freestyle. We had Katia 0:45:00.680 --> 0:45:05.040 and Victoria, the world's tallest models on the show. Katia 0:45:05.120 --> 0:45:07.319 had the literally the Guinness Booger World records for the 0:45:07.320 --> 0:45:10.319 longest legs in the world. So Danny and I we 0:45:10.320 --> 0:45:12.800 were able and we went to the World's Tallest Model 0:45:12.840 --> 0:45:15.160 Show last weekend. It was a glorious time at stage 0:45:15.160 --> 0:45:17.279 forty eight and Dany Otto we bring him now in 0:45:17.680 --> 0:45:21.319 on the Fantasy Freestyle. As my model corresponded, Danny, how 0:45:21.360 --> 0:45:23.319 you doing, brother man, I'm doing pretty good at you. 0:45:23.520 --> 0:45:25.600 I'm doing all right. So let's give people our top 0:45:25.640 --> 0:45:29.000 takeaways here from the Model Show. And you're laughing. I'm 0:45:29.080 --> 0:45:32.600 laughing because overall I gotta say this, you know, Shout 0:45:32.600 --> 0:45:34.600 out to the ladies, Shout out to the girls they 0:45:34.600 --> 0:45:37.400 did their things, Shout out to the designers. But Danny 0:45:37.520 --> 0:45:40.000 was a little weird. It was definitely a little It 0:45:40.040 --> 0:45:42.399 was a little weird Danny. Right, Here's the thing I've 0:45:42.440 --> 0:45:44.239 never had experience with that, So I don't know if 0:45:44.239 --> 0:45:47.560 the regular version is is weird also like I don't know, 0:45:47.640 --> 0:45:49.600 I have nothing to I think this is a little weirder. 0:45:49.640 --> 0:45:52.239 Oh yeah, because here's here's the thing. And big shout 0:45:52.239 --> 0:45:54.359 out to our homegirl Anastagio, who was our hook up, 0:45:54.440 --> 0:45:57.000 former bartender over here a Rock and Riley's Studio thirty four. 0:45:57.360 --> 0:45:59.080 She was like worried about She was trying that that's 0:45:59.080 --> 0:46:00.680 why the girls want the show you're promoting. They were 0:46:00.680 --> 0:46:04.000 trying to sell tickets, right, And it looked, Danny, and 0:46:04.040 --> 0:46:06.200 you will, you will, you will acknowledge this. It looked 0:46:06.200 --> 0:46:08.040 when we would go in at the show when the 0:46:08.040 --> 0:46:10.200 show was going on, it looked like the venue was 0:46:10.239 --> 0:46:12.719 in full okay, and I will say that. And so 0:46:12.760 --> 0:46:15.440 I was like, oh, snap, maybe they're not making money 0:46:15.440 --> 0:46:17.480 off this. Maybe our promotion wasn't good. But then I 0:46:17.520 --> 0:46:20.560 talked to Anastagia afterwards and she said, oh, no, no, no, 0:46:20.640 --> 0:46:23.960 we sold out. And in fact, Danny, she said that 0:46:24.080 --> 0:46:28.200 some of the guys who went there spent fifteen hundred 0:46:28.280 --> 0:46:30.920 dollars for their seat to the show and to be 0:46:30.960 --> 0:46:33.799 able to you know, like you know, go to the 0:46:33.840 --> 0:46:37.000 after party with the models afterwards, right, and we were 0:46:37.040 --> 0:46:39.680 talking to some of those dudes, and Nah, it was 0:46:39.680 --> 0:46:43.200 a little strange, Danny. When when I said a few 0:46:43.280 --> 0:46:46.160 seconds or minutes ago that it was weird, I meant 0:46:46.280 --> 0:46:48.759 they were weird. That's right, that was That's what I'm saying. 0:46:48.760 --> 0:46:50.440 Shout out to the girls. They did their thing, They 0:46:50.440 --> 0:46:52.840 looked beautiful, the clothes were awesome, but it was just 0:46:52.880 --> 0:46:54.600 a little bit of a weird vibe. I think at 0:46:54.640 --> 0:46:58.920 one point we literally referenced the movie Get Out, saying like, 0:46:59.000 --> 0:47:00.759 this seems a little weird. I don't know what these 0:47:00.800 --> 0:47:03.640 like older gentlemen are really here for what they're expecting. 0:47:03.719 --> 0:47:05.839 So I will say that and then also listen, shout 0:47:05.840 --> 0:47:08.239 out to Katia, right, who was here, longest legs in 0:47:08.239 --> 0:47:10.600 the world. But I'm gonna tell you something, if you're 0:47:10.640 --> 0:47:14.000 six nine and you're also wearing like six or seven 0:47:14.000 --> 0:47:18.040 in chiels, do not try to walk down some stairs. 0:47:18.640 --> 0:47:20.880 I watched, you know, like I never really watched the 0:47:21.080 --> 0:47:23.920 Miss America pageant or model shows like from beginning to end. 0:47:23.920 --> 0:47:25.880 But if I did, the thing I'd be looking for 0:47:26.040 --> 0:47:28.640 is to see someone fall. And oh my god, did 0:47:28.680 --> 0:47:31.640 Katia almost fall? Like I'm talking guys, listen stats of 0:47:31.719 --> 0:47:36.000 Beatside from talking first model out, first song, first outfit, 0:47:36.400 --> 0:47:39.000 you know, boom, she almost tumbles down the stairs, Danny, 0:47:39.040 --> 0:47:41.319 what were you thinking when that was going down? I 0:47:41.800 --> 0:47:44.000 the worst part is that we knew her. Like if 0:47:44.040 --> 0:47:45.480 it was one of the models that I didn't know, 0:47:45.480 --> 0:47:47.400 I'd be like ha ha ha. But I felt bad 0:47:47.440 --> 0:47:49.840 because it was Katia right, But I mean she grabbed 0:47:49.840 --> 0:47:51.960 her like she got herself. She tripped like on one 0:47:52.040 --> 0:47:54.799 or two steps, then jumped down like three or four 0:47:54.880 --> 0:47:59.719 steps and landed in high heels. That was impressive, impressive, 0:47:59.760 --> 0:48:01.759 And after that they had like this other six six 0:48:01.840 --> 0:48:04.239 dude like helping them walk downstairs. It was a lot 0:48:04.280 --> 0:48:08.440 of fun. Danny. What was your biggest takeaway from the event? Uh? 0:48:08.600 --> 0:48:11.799 That uh? I guess some guys are willing to pay 0:48:11.880 --> 0:48:16.320 for some guy. But with the stats over Beats, Cipher 0:48:16.320 --> 0:48:19.200 and my patreons can just see live and direct. Here 0:48:19.239 --> 0:48:23.000 we had Contio, we had Victoria's Lovely, some other lovely ladies. 0:48:23.000 --> 0:48:25.040 Their model show is going to keep it moving. I 0:48:25.080 --> 0:48:26.960 believe they're going to l a. So if you're part 0:48:26.960 --> 0:48:29.719 of the stats over Beat Cipher, Jilly Dilley, I see you. 0:48:29.800 --> 0:48:31.759 If you want to get down my boys out there 0:48:31.800 --> 0:48:33.719 with the drinkings. Uh, if you want to get down 0:48:33.760 --> 0:48:37.040 hollow boy at spitting speeds. Danny, what else you got 0:48:37.040 --> 0:48:38.600 from the show. I mean it was a fun experience 0:48:38.600 --> 0:48:41.200 overall though, right, Oh yeah, no, it was great. It 0:48:41.280 --> 0:48:43.120 kind of makes me feel better that we got asked 0:48:43.160 --> 0:48:45.520 to go to the front row, knowing that some people 0:48:45.560 --> 0:48:47.560 like obviously that we're in the front row to start 0:48:47.760 --> 0:48:50.600 where we're like in between designers, Like the m C 0:48:50.800 --> 0:48:53.359 was like interviewing people, yeah, all right, and they were 0:48:53.360 --> 0:48:55.520 asking like and a lot of it was friends and family, 0:48:55.560 --> 0:48:58.080 you know, like networks of people right, like showing love, 0:48:58.120 --> 0:49:01.160 showing support. But it was like this one kind of 0:49:01.200 --> 0:49:03.319 shady dude that was in the front row and they 0:49:03.320 --> 0:49:04.520 asked him like, oh, who do you know? And he 0:49:04.600 --> 0:49:06.600 was like, no, I paid my own way here. I 0:49:06.640 --> 0:49:09.800 wanted to see this and it had a shady tinge 0:49:09.880 --> 0:49:12.080 to it. That's all I'm gonna say. I'm gonna leave 0:49:12.080 --> 0:49:14.680 it at that, Danny, would you agree? I absolutely agree 0:49:14.719 --> 0:49:16.840 to that. All right, So but check it out. You 0:49:16.840 --> 0:49:19.840 want to support Katia and the crew, the world's tallest models. 0:49:19.880 --> 0:49:22.239 They're doing their thing. Their fashion show is on the 0:49:22.280 --> 0:49:24.359 barn Storming Tour. Check them out. We got to party 0:49:24.360 --> 0:49:26.320 with them a little bit later afterwards. It was a 0:49:26.360 --> 0:49:28.919 lot of fun. A good time was had by all. 0:49:28.960 --> 0:49:30.560 We only got a couple of minutes left here on 0:49:30.640 --> 0:49:32.360 the Fantasy Freestyle. So the one thing I want to 0:49:32.360 --> 0:49:35.000 tell you JP, I apologize. We're gonna have to push 0:49:35.080 --> 0:49:37.360 my trap game. My estro's back to next week. But 0:49:37.400 --> 0:49:39.080 the one thing I want to do I don't know if. 0:49:39.360 --> 0:49:41.360 I don't know if my best friend forever Mikey Florio's 0:49:41.400 --> 0:49:45.239 down there or anybody else. But since I saw you 0:49:45.280 --> 0:49:48.520 guys laughed, last July first happened. July first is not 0:49:48.560 --> 0:49:50.279 only the start of a new fiscal year, but I 0:49:50.320 --> 0:49:53.000 call it Bobby Boni a day. And if you're a 0:49:53.000 --> 0:49:56.080 Mets fan, you know about this. Bobby Bonilla last played 0:49:56.120 --> 0:49:59.759 for the New York Mets. He had won sixty for them, 0:49:59.800 --> 0:50:02.120 and he was due on his contract five point nine 0:50:02.160 --> 0:50:05.400 million dollars left. Instead of taking the money up front, 0:50:05.480 --> 0:50:09.120 he decided to defer his payment get deferred payments, And 0:50:09.160 --> 0:50:11.839 what that meant with interest was from the year two 0:50:11.880 --> 0:50:16.440 thousand ten until the year two thousand thirty five, twenty 0:50:16.640 --> 0:50:23.359 five years including last weekend, Bobby Bonia gets a check 0:50:23.480 --> 0:50:27.760 for one point two million dollars from the New York Mets, 0:50:27.760 --> 0:50:31.000 still for laying on his couch, or for barbecuing out 0:50:31.000 --> 0:50:33.439 in the Bronx, or for doing some but he gets 0:50:33.440 --> 0:50:37.920 one point to million dollars this July one and every 0:50:38.000 --> 0:50:41.319 July one from now until two thousand and thirty five. 0:50:41.360 --> 0:50:44.480 I gotta tell you I want his agent or money manager, 0:50:44.680 --> 0:50:46.520 because that was an awesome deal. The Mets in the 0:50:46.520 --> 0:50:48.839 wilpon S thought at this point in time that because 0:50:48.840 --> 0:50:50.799 they were in bed with Bernie made Off, they thought 0:50:50.840 --> 0:50:53.040 that they were getting ten percent returns on their money. 0:50:53.239 --> 0:50:55.680 So they thought if they deferred payment to Bobby Bonia 0:50:55.760 --> 0:50:58.600 with eight percent interest, they were still coming out ahead 0:50:58.680 --> 0:51:00.560 on the deal, and which is used their interest to 0:51:00.560 --> 0:51:03.520 pay Bobby Bonia. But then, as you know, the thing 0:51:03.560 --> 0:51:05.960 went down with made Off and the Willponds, and now 0:51:06.000 --> 0:51:08.480 they don't have that. And so for now and for 0:51:08.520 --> 0:51:13.560 the next seven teen years, Bobby Bonia will be making 0:51:13.640 --> 0:51:16.440 one point two million dollars on every July one. So 0:51:16.480 --> 0:51:20.400 that's why I call it Bobby Bonia Day. Dilly dilly 0:51:20.440 --> 0:51:24.600 to Bobby Bonia. All right, um, check it out. We're 0:51:24.640 --> 0:51:26.160 about to get out of here. We only got a 0:51:26.160 --> 0:51:29.560 couple of minutes left, and so what two minutes left 0:51:29.600 --> 0:51:31.279 to be exact? And so what I wanna do is, 0:51:31.320 --> 0:51:34.239 I'm gonna tell you about next week's show. Next week, 0:51:34.280 --> 0:51:36.760 what we're gonna do is we're gonna preview another division. 0:51:36.840 --> 0:51:38.440 We did the a f C West this week, we'll 0:51:38.440 --> 0:51:40.799 probably go on over to the NFC West. We're gonna 0:51:40.800 --> 0:51:43.560 get my guys the Trap Game. My Estro's back on 0:51:43.719 --> 0:51:46.319 and popping on the show. We gotta get them into 0:51:46.360 --> 0:51:48.840 the flow. My man, JP the Night Owl has not 0:51:49.000 --> 0:51:52.080 heard the speeds Fantasy Football remixes from The Trap Game, 0:51:52.080 --> 0:51:54.640 my Stro, So we're gonna get them live and direct. 0:51:54.640 --> 0:51:58.000 We'll bring in JP to talk about any updates as 0:51:58.120 --> 0:52:01.600 it relates to NBA free agency trades, that sort of thing. 0:52:01.800 --> 0:52:04.719 I told you about my final four for the World Cup. 0:52:05.000 --> 0:52:09.040 I am riding again with France Belgium over Brazil in 0:52:09.080 --> 0:52:12.399 the upset, which would would be the upset of the ground, right, 0:52:12.680 --> 0:52:15.320 So I like France to move on as a favorite. 0:52:15.360 --> 0:52:18.160 I like Belgium to prove pull the upset, part of 0:52:18.200 --> 0:52:21.719 which is because I got my man, Romo Lulukaku that's 0:52:21.760 --> 0:52:23.560 the guy who I expect to score the most goals 0:52:23.560 --> 0:52:25.759 in the tournament. Me and my boy Frank standfill have 0:52:25.880 --> 0:52:28.440 that bet. Keep it lock to Chris Venture the Analyst. 0:52:28.440 --> 0:52:30.120 He's got some good looks on on the World Cup 0:52:30.160 --> 0:52:33.600 as well. Then I like Croatia to um, you know, 0:52:34.280 --> 0:52:39.160 overcome the collusion, overcome the stray dogs and puting out there. 0:52:39.320 --> 0:52:42.160 And I like Croatia to advance to the semifinals, and 0:52:42.200 --> 0:52:44.880 I like England to move on.
