Welcome 0:01:26.000 --> 0:01:30.000 inside the Fantasy best Friends Forever alongside Greg Susman. I 0:01:30.040 --> 0:01:32.840 am Frank Stanfell, getting you ready for Week fifteen of 0:01:32.880 --> 0:01:36.959 your Waiver wire. But before that, I'll throw it to 0:01:36.959 --> 0:01:41.480 Greg Susman for a very special message involving the Fantasy 0:01:41.480 --> 0:01:45.120 Football Playoffs. I wanna first thank you everybody. Our listeners 0:01:45.160 --> 0:01:50.960 are viewers, are watchers, right, because they listened yesterday, right, 0:01:51.040 --> 0:01:53.680 they watched and they viewed, and they reached out to us, 0:01:53.680 --> 0:01:55.480 to me yesterday, I asked me about my matchup all 0:01:55.560 --> 0:01:57.680 night long, and that was awesome. To have people following 0:01:57.720 --> 0:02:01.520 along all night long with me, was really really cool. 0:02:01.600 --> 0:02:03.080 To see your tweets. R d M is like, that 0:02:03.120 --> 0:02:07.240 was awesome. What wasn't awesome is what took place last night. Now, 0:02:07.800 --> 0:02:11.399 I want to say this, I recognize there's a fair 0:02:11.440 --> 0:02:14.680 amount of luck that goes into this game. I was 0:02:14.760 --> 0:02:18.880 down in my league. I was up rather four point 0:02:19.040 --> 0:02:23.120 nine points against Sebastian Janikowski last night for those that 0:02:23.160 --> 0:02:25.880 missed it. And in my league, every field goal up 0:02:25.880 --> 0:02:28.520 to forty nine yards is worth two points, an extra 0:02:28.560 --> 0:02:33.240 point is worth one point. So essentially one yard cost 0:02:33.280 --> 0:02:35.800 me being up five points. As I said yesterday, I 0:02:35.840 --> 0:02:42.120 owned the tiebreaker. Now that's one yard and anyway, and 0:02:42.160 --> 0:02:45.920 everyone's had those brutal losses. Wow, I thought you did 0:02:46.040 --> 0:02:50.640 until last night. This game as much skill as involved 0:02:50.680 --> 0:02:53.440 and being being the smart guy on draft day, being 0:02:53.480 --> 0:02:56.280 the right pickups, bidding the right amounts during the season, 0:02:57.720 --> 0:03:01.919 there is so much luck involved. My luck started to 0:03:02.000 --> 0:03:04.560 go in a really positive direction last Thursday night when 0:03:04.600 --> 0:03:09.080 my opponent bench Derrick Henry and all forty seven of 0:03:09.120 --> 0:03:13.400 his points for Jordy Nelson in a move that flabbergasted me. 0:03:14.040 --> 0:03:18.240 It was pumped about. My luck once again went in 0:03:18.240 --> 0:03:21.280 the right way when Kenyan Drake had the most miracle 0:03:21.360 --> 0:03:25.240 touchdown of all miracle touchdowns on Sunday afternoon. So you 0:03:25.240 --> 0:03:28.760 could make the case, and rightfully so, that I should 0:03:28.760 --> 0:03:32.400 not have been that in that position that I was 0:03:33.160 --> 0:03:36.320 on Monday night. And then the luck started to turn 0:03:36.320 --> 0:03:38.120 a little bit, and you know how these things kind 0:03:38.120 --> 0:03:41.560 of even out. It was all on a weekend, all 0:03:41.600 --> 0:03:45.840 in a day, on twenty four hour span. Jujus miss 0:03:45.880 --> 0:03:50.440 Schuster followed up Kenny and Drake's lateral after lateral with 0:03:50.560 --> 0:03:54.720 his own and get a whole bunch of yards. Robert 0:03:54.760 --> 0:03:57.960 Wood's the best wide receiver on the Rams at his 0:03:58.080 --> 0:04:01.960 lowest output of yards in any game since Week one 0:04:02.560 --> 0:04:05.080 six or seventies six or sixty one or seven sixty one. 0:04:06.560 --> 0:04:12.960 Something happened, Frank, We'll get to it. After this, followed 0:04:13.000 --> 0:04:15.840 it up by going into Monday Night Football up four 0:04:16.160 --> 0:04:19.599 point nine points and listen, if I'm gonna lose, just 0:04:19.600 --> 0:04:24.160 just kill me, man, Just just stab it, shoot it whatever, 0:04:24.680 --> 0:04:28.840 just end it. That's not how it works, is it, Frank. 0:04:29.040 --> 0:04:32.559 It never just ends brutally on a first quarter fifty 0:04:32.640 --> 0:04:36.960 yard field goal. Ever, so the first quarter Sea basket 0:04:37.040 --> 0:04:41.520 is a thirty yard field goal. Great, all right, three 0:04:41.520 --> 0:04:45.080 more points until I lose. Fine, going in a halftime, 0:04:45.080 --> 0:04:47.039 And this is just the story of the night, the 0:04:47.080 --> 0:04:49.359 story of luck, the story of my weekend, the story 0:04:49.400 --> 0:04:54.240 about our season as fantasy football players. Russell Wilson, there's 0:04:54.279 --> 0:04:57.000 an interception with sixteen seconds left. They were getting an 0:04:57.040 --> 0:04:59.159 extra point or a field goal or something there. He 0:04:59.200 --> 0:05:02.080 throws an inter set going in a halftime, and I'm like, wow, 0:05:02.120 --> 0:05:08.120 my luck is on the upswide second half comes Sea Baskets, 0:05:08.200 --> 0:05:10.280 another thirty yard field goal, and of course I'm much 0:05:10.360 --> 0:05:12.880 rather the extra points, but it's another third yard field goal. 0:05:13.680 --> 0:05:15.960 I have no more margin left to spare. I am 0:05:16.040 --> 0:05:21.280 up by point, well by one point right, zero point 0:05:21.360 --> 0:05:25.159 nine zero. I'm obviously I'm un by zero point nine points. 0:05:26.800 --> 0:05:29.440 Minnesota comes down, goes all the way, and I'm thinking 0:05:29.880 --> 0:05:33.680 I want Minnesota obviously scored nothing at all all night. 0:05:33.800 --> 0:05:35.680 So they just run the clock and run the clock 0:05:35.720 --> 0:05:39.320 and run the clock. Minnesota goes out of the one 0:05:39.360 --> 0:05:42.200 yard line, goes from a fourth down, doesn't get it. 0:05:43.320 --> 0:05:46.760 Look up like, oh my god. Of course they immediately 0:05:46.800 --> 0:05:48.160 go three and out. They kick the ball on their 0:05:48.200 --> 0:05:54.440 own side of the field. Right Minnesota comes down. I 0:05:54.440 --> 0:05:56.400 want to kick a field on Like god, it's gonna 0:05:56.440 --> 0:05:58.680 be six three. This is a disaster. Plenty of time, 0:05:58.720 --> 0:06:01.400 lip up, come and extend it. Okay, a touchdown, make 0:06:01.440 --> 0:06:05.359 it ten three or thirteen three, that's perfect. Bobby Wagner 0:06:05.480 --> 0:06:10.240 blocks the field goal illegally, but blocks the fieldical look up. 0:06:11.480 --> 0:06:19.240 I'm like, oh my god, this is ridiculous. This is rediculous. 0:06:19.560 --> 0:06:23.719 Now there's about five minutes to go. By fifty I 0:06:23.760 --> 0:06:28.800 believe the ball at their own forty Russell Willie Russell 0:06:28.800 --> 0:06:31.800 Wilson somehow scampers out as he tends to do and 0:06:31.880 --> 0:06:34.520 runs up to the left sideline and keeps going and 0:06:34.600 --> 0:06:41.120 going and going, and I just go luck over until 0:06:42.440 --> 0:06:44.440 we're going in for the touchdown, and we realize, and 0:06:44.440 --> 0:06:47.279 I'm talking to my group of friends, and we realized 0:06:47.520 --> 0:06:48.960 it kind of makes sense for them to go for 0:06:49.000 --> 0:06:52.760 two thirte nothing. Fourteen nothing, probably doesn't matter, but it 0:06:52.839 --> 0:06:54.880 kind of makes sense. We go over too, so I'm 0:06:54.920 --> 0:06:57.440 reoding for a touchdown and Roody for Pete Carroll to 0:06:57.480 --> 0:07:00.440 be on my side. They score the touchdown on third 0:07:00.440 --> 0:07:04.040 and goal. They get in there and there I'm just 0:07:04.120 --> 0:07:06.920 staring at the huddle and I'm staring at Russell Wilson 0:07:07.000 --> 0:07:10.280 not leaving the field, and my hands are coping my 0:07:10.320 --> 0:07:14.000 mouth and I'm just I can't believe it. I cannot 0:07:14.000 --> 0:07:16.640 believe it. What's the next thing that happens? Frank time 0:07:16.680 --> 0:07:19.480 out and like, oh my god, they're gonna change their 0:07:19.520 --> 0:07:22.040 minds and they go to like a little highlight package 0:07:22.080 --> 0:07:25.720 and I'm just staring silently at the television. Next thing, 0:07:25.800 --> 0:07:27.800 you know, Russell Wilson's out there and I'm like, please, 0:07:27.800 --> 0:07:29.640 no penalty? Right like they push him back the ball, 0:07:29.640 --> 0:07:31.640 They'll say screw it, just go for the extra point. 0:07:32.520 --> 0:07:34.200 They hiked the ball, and at that point, I don't 0:07:34.200 --> 0:07:36.440 care what happens. They wind up converting it. It's fourteen nothing. 0:07:36.600 --> 0:07:41.320 There was two minutes and forty seconds to go kick 0:07:41.360 --> 0:07:43.880 it off the Minnesota and it's it. I ran around 0:07:43.880 --> 0:07:48.920 my apartment celebrating, kissing Judy just smiling ear to ear, 0:07:50.080 --> 0:07:53.880 thrilled that I somehow survived getting a kicker getting five 0:07:53.960 --> 0:08:00.680 points against me to forty year, change to go. What 0:08:00.800 --> 0:08:04.080 happens next? Throw it past the Dalvin Cook that hits 0:08:04.120 --> 0:08:07.000 off his hands and could have been intercepted. My stomach drops, 0:08:07.520 --> 0:08:11.560 just drops at that moment, like oh God, deep breath. 0:08:12.400 --> 0:08:17.240 The very next play, Cousins scrambles to his left and 0:08:17.320 --> 0:08:20.080 you see it the whole way, two Seattle defenders converging 0:08:20.120 --> 0:08:22.800 on him and the white Kirk Cousins was playing last night. 0:08:22.840 --> 0:08:24.840 He was going down. That ball was coming out, and 0:08:24.880 --> 0:08:26.560 all I hoped for was that a big fat guy 0:08:26.600 --> 0:08:31.200 would fall on it or somehow Minnesota will recover. Neither 0:08:31.240 --> 0:08:35.120 of those things happen. Seattle defensive back gets it, and 0:08:35.120 --> 0:08:38.360 I'm like, please just be smart, just pull a Todd 0:08:38.400 --> 0:08:44.440 Gurley right slide fall, do anything. The defenders no, no, 0:08:44.440 --> 0:08:47.760 no, no no, they want their team picture. They want their 0:08:47.760 --> 0:08:51.319 team picture. And as I see him pick it up 0:08:51.440 --> 0:08:54.360 and see him cut to that left sideline again, you 0:08:54.360 --> 0:08:59.080 think my stomach dropped. Then my heart sank. Touch down 0:08:59.080 --> 0:09:02.240 Seattle and here comes the extra point, And now all 0:09:02.240 --> 0:09:04.160 I can hope for is a blocked extra point in 0:09:04.160 --> 0:09:07.120 a game that means nothing, in a moment that means nothing, 0:09:07.760 --> 0:09:11.360 and there goes the guy the Vikings corner off our 0:09:11.440 --> 0:09:15.720 left side of the screen dives. There's no avail, and 0:09:15.760 --> 0:09:18.640 as the ball goes to the upright, pillows start getting 0:09:18.640 --> 0:09:22.080 thrown in my apartment, cushions to start getting thrown. My 0:09:22.120 --> 0:09:27.800 couch is bare, with nothing but crumbs, and I'm just angry, saddened, 0:09:27.840 --> 0:09:30.240 and in shock. As a look that was on my 0:09:30.320 --> 0:09:32.920 side for so much of that night. This is when 0:09:32.960 --> 0:09:35.800 the other way It started on Thursday night, as I said, 0:09:36.120 --> 0:09:39.680 with Derrick Henry not being in my opponent's lineup. It 0:09:39.720 --> 0:09:43.920 continued on Sunday with Kennyan Drake's miraculous touchdown. I was 0:09:43.960 --> 0:09:46.800 in a position I did not deserve to being, admittedly, 0:09:48.440 --> 0:09:51.000 but then you feel it, you feel that sense of hope. 0:09:51.520 --> 0:09:53.880 And that's what I felt in Fantasy football last night, 0:09:54.080 --> 0:09:56.920 that sense of hope where I shouldn't be here, but 0:09:57.000 --> 0:09:59.280 with two minutes and forty seconds to go, I was there. 0:09:59.360 --> 0:10:03.480 I was a pre piss of that semi final, facing 0:10:03.480 --> 0:10:05.760 Todd Gurley and Brandon Cooks next week and Tyree Keil 0:10:05.760 --> 0:10:07.559 if he plays in a match off. I was not 0:10:07.600 --> 0:10:09.080 gonna be favorite in but I was there and anything 0:10:09.120 --> 0:10:10.880 could happen. As we saw this Sunday, I put up 0:10:11.040 --> 0:10:14.480 in my half point PVR League one, I want to 0:10:14.480 --> 0:10:18.520 get the exact number in this PPR league I put up. 0:10:18.800 --> 0:10:22.240 I believe a hundred and forty two point eight points, 0:10:22.280 --> 0:10:24.880 I want to say, and my opponent had one hundred 0:10:24.920 --> 0:10:29.120 and forty two point nine. And then I'm looking at 0:10:29.080 --> 0:10:30.839 stack corrections like a my, what else am I gonna do? 0:10:30.880 --> 0:10:33.320 I compared ESPN scoring on the lateral to Kennyan Drake, 0:10:33.440 --> 0:10:38.040 to Yahoo. Maybe something's there now. I compare the same 0:10:38.120 --> 0:10:46.559 thing with Juju Smith Schuster. Maybe something there. Now. I'm 0:10:46.600 --> 0:10:49.199 at a loss for words. There is no other way. 0:10:49.240 --> 0:10:55.760 There's luck and turn. Unfortunately, there's been brutal losses and 0:10:55.800 --> 0:10:57.720 everyone has their own story, and I respect that. I 0:10:57.760 --> 0:11:00.000 was in a league where somebody lost on Aaron Rodgers, 0:11:00.040 --> 0:11:02.400 losing a yard or two on a Neil, like he 0:11:02.440 --> 0:11:05.160 took an extra step and lost on that nil. In 0:11:05.200 --> 0:11:07.800 this round of the playoffs, I've never seen anything like that, 0:11:09.280 --> 0:11:13.760 and I felt that last night. That is as heart wrenching, 0:11:13.880 --> 0:11:18.959 as heartbreaking as this stupid game gets. That was my 0:11:19.080 --> 0:11:20.640 range of emotions, and I know my opponent on the 0:11:20.679 --> 0:11:23.520 other side, I felt the exact opposite the entire night. 0:11:26.240 --> 0:11:33.880 And that is how it went. There's a big jolly 0:11:33.920 --> 0:11:37.960 fellow standing here in the studio just looking at using 0:11:39.360 --> 0:11:46.960 white teams. I'm not sure it's about to happen, Greggy. 0:11:47.040 --> 0:11:51.160 That is U. That is a microcosmo fantasy football for 0:11:51.280 --> 0:11:55.079 every single person ever. The joy, the excitement. I got 0:11:55.080 --> 0:11:58.679 the score wrongs one point three point two, but you 0:11:58.760 --> 0:12:01.640 got the concept. The way that this game can build 0:12:01.720 --> 0:12:06.720 you up, Greg, and in the next ten twenty minutes, 0:12:06.800 --> 0:12:09.480 whatever it might be the next second, the way that 0:12:09.520 --> 0:12:13.360 it could tear you down. I mean, that's part of 0:12:13.360 --> 0:12:17.800 why we play, right, the roller coaster. The level of excitement, 0:12:18.640 --> 0:12:23.440 enjoy and anger and sadness that fantasy football could bring. 0:12:23.679 --> 0:12:25.640 There's no other fantasy support that could do it in 0:12:25.760 --> 0:12:29.200 that in that amount of time, that quickly, that can 0:12:30.040 --> 0:12:32.200 flip you want a dime like that, Greg, There's no 0:12:32.240 --> 0:12:34.120 other fantasy support that could do it. And that's what 0:12:34.160 --> 0:12:37.760 makes fantasy football so fun. Sorry, Greg. And And the 0:12:37.760 --> 0:12:40.360 thing is, you know you might have heard about this 0:12:40.400 --> 0:12:43.120 with like twins they have like they have like a sampatico, 0:12:43.320 --> 0:12:46.400 right like, if one twin is like ill or feels 0:12:46.440 --> 0:12:50.160 down down in the dumps, doesn't feel right, the other 0:12:50.160 --> 0:12:54.000 twin can feel it. Greg I felt you felt you 0:12:54.120 --> 0:12:59.640 last night, man felt it inside when that extra point happened. 0:13:01.080 --> 0:13:03.840 I was right there with you, but I was, I was, 0:13:04.120 --> 0:13:06.559 I was texting you along the way, and and when 0:13:06.559 --> 0:13:08.640 they go for two, I'm like, this is like you 0:13:08.679 --> 0:13:11.160 were the luckiest person of all time. This is insane. 0:13:11.920 --> 0:13:13.880 When I saw the fumble recovery, mind you, I'm streaming 0:13:13.880 --> 0:13:16.160 on ESPN like I've cut the chord, so I'm like 0:13:16.160 --> 0:13:21.600 a little bit behind everything, Like, oh god, oh it 0:13:21.720 --> 0:13:24.880 was so bad, dude. I'm so sorry. If you have 0:13:24.960 --> 0:13:27.320 a horror story, if you have play aff heartbreak, because 0:13:27.320 --> 0:13:30.839 Greg I tweeted about this last night drink so many 0:13:30.920 --> 0:13:33.640 leagues were one and lost on that final drive with 0:13:33.880 --> 0:13:37.360 which meant absolutely nothing in the realm of like football 0:13:37.400 --> 0:13:39.959 and NFL, Like Kirk Cousins driving down the field and 0:13:40.000 --> 0:13:43.959 throwing a touchdown to Dalvin Cook meant nothing at all, 0:13:44.480 --> 0:13:47.680 Like in this game in standings, a lot of people 0:13:48.360 --> 0:13:51.839 we Cousins, you know, throwing Someone tweeted me last night 0:13:51.880 --> 0:13:54.720 that they were up big and going against Kirk Cousins 0:13:54.800 --> 0:13:58.640 and Dalvin Cook on that final drive and lost because 0:13:58.640 --> 0:14:00.400 of it. I mean, and for every person that loses 0:14:00.440 --> 0:14:02.079 because of it, there are people that win because of it. 0:14:02.200 --> 0:14:04.320 So it goes both ways. But if you have a 0:14:04.360 --> 0:14:06.679 heartbreaking story and yes, we're gonna get to the waiver wire. 0:14:06.800 --> 0:14:08.880 If you're freaking out and you're like, oh, they're not 0:14:08.960 --> 0:14:10.720 talking about what's gonna happen this week, we're gonna talk 0:14:10.720 --> 0:14:13.839 about what's gonna happens. Yeah, we got some quarterback streams. 0:14:13.840 --> 0:14:15.920 You're playing in a two quarterback league, running backs, wid suis, 0:14:15.920 --> 0:14:18.640 tight ends defense. We're gonna get to guarantee we'll take 0:14:18.640 --> 0:14:22.640 your calls to seven. Do you have a horror story? 0:14:23.280 --> 0:14:26.680 You won because last night I want to hear from you, 0:14:26.680 --> 0:14:30.040 either console, Greggy, make fun of Greggy, whatever you want 0:14:30.080 --> 0:14:35.240 to do. We want to hear from you. People. Let 0:14:35.280 --> 0:14:37.720 me throw this at you. We talk about luck, and 0:14:37.840 --> 0:14:41.200 we talk about the ups and the downs. Yes, sir, 0:14:41.680 --> 0:14:44.040 so I am in the Flex League. I mean that's 0:14:44.040 --> 0:14:48.040 semi finals. I'm in the final four Reflex and expertly 0:14:48.080 --> 0:14:50.520 the Fantasy League of Experts. I believe it is called 0:14:51.320 --> 0:14:54.600 obviously one by Corey Parson and myself previously one of 0:14:54.600 --> 0:14:56.120 my frank staffle and I'm there in the final. I 0:14:56.160 --> 0:14:57.720 have to bring my belt in studio because I know 0:14:57.720 --> 0:14:59.640 where it is. It's home, it's safe, it sounds I 0:15:00.360 --> 0:15:03.760 beneath and there where I need to be. And I'm 0:15:03.760 --> 0:15:06.800 looking at the standings, and I noticed a bunch of 0:15:06.920 --> 0:15:09.000 us finished eight and five. And remember that I didn't look. 0:15:09.000 --> 0:15:10.080 You know, it is what it is. I play who 0:15:10.120 --> 0:15:11.880 I played when then it goes to the the point scored. Alright, 0:15:11.920 --> 0:15:14.560 so its point scored. So I fished third. There's some 0:15:14.680 --> 0:15:17.880 third And normally how every bracket that I that I 0:15:17.960 --> 0:15:20.120 understand works, the three seed plays the six seed, the 0:15:20.120 --> 0:15:22.040 fourth seed plays the five seed, and then now you 0:15:22.040 --> 0:15:24.040 could recede in the next round, or you stay on 0:15:24.080 --> 0:15:26.120 your side of the brackets, depending on your playoff format. 0:15:26.480 --> 0:15:30.200 But pretty inarguably the three seed plays the six seed. 0:15:30.200 --> 0:15:32.320 The four seed played the five seed. But I, by 0:15:32.360 --> 0:15:36.280 looking at the standings, I played the five seed and 0:15:36.320 --> 0:15:38.320 the four seed played the sixth seed, which should not 0:15:38.400 --> 0:15:41.960 have happened. Now, I scored the most points in the 0:15:42.000 --> 0:15:44.640 league last week. I had a hundred forty something or whatever. 0:15:45.360 --> 0:15:47.760 So I'm gonna I advance it doesn't affect me in 0:15:47.800 --> 0:15:52.600 any way, but it could have affected my opponent, or 0:15:52.640 --> 0:15:56.560 it could have affected the other matchup. Now, my opponent 0:15:57.480 --> 0:16:02.040 was Jake Seeley, the commissioner of the league. Jake would 0:16:02.040 --> 0:16:04.640 have lost to anyone, So Jake is unaffected Inness. He 0:16:04.640 --> 0:16:07.120 would have lost to either players. In the other matchup, 0:16:07.840 --> 0:16:14.240 I would have beaten my opponent, which was Scott Barrett. Yes, 0:16:15.240 --> 0:16:17.760 I was. That was built up to that. I would 0:16:17.800 --> 0:16:20.920 have beaten my opponent, Scott Barrett. Scott Barrett was the 0:16:21.080 --> 0:16:26.160 sixth seed and faced the four seed, who is Frank Stafeld. 0:16:27.200 --> 0:16:30.520 As we told you on yesterday's show, it was Jordan 0:16:30.600 --> 0:16:34.880 Howard versus Todd Gurley, Scott Backart versus Frank Stanfeld, and 0:16:34.920 --> 0:16:41.240 Frank finished within one point of beating Scott Barrett. So 0:16:41.400 --> 0:16:43.400 Scott would have lost to me in a matchup that 0:16:43.440 --> 0:16:47.760 should have taken place according to the league rules. Frank 0:16:48.600 --> 0:16:51.640 lost to Scott Barrett, but would have beaten Jake Seeley, 0:16:52.080 --> 0:16:55.240 the team he was supposed to play according to the 0:16:55.360 --> 0:17:00.680 league rules. So now what is that bad luck or 0:17:00.760 --> 0:17:03.640 is that something that should be changed? Right now, we 0:17:03.720 --> 0:17:06.120 want your thoughts on all of this.

But I want to 0:19:28.680 --> 0:19:34.520 thank you. That's the best friends forever Fantasy Sports Radio Network, 0:19:34.560 --> 0:19:38.080 Frank and yet my my open here. How I'm feeling 0:19:38.080 --> 0:19:40.840 what's going on in my life? So I gotta ask you, 0:19:41.560 --> 0:19:44.000 given that I I found for you, You've a best fread. 0:19:44.000 --> 0:19:46.640 I was looking at it for you. How do you feel? 0:19:46.680 --> 0:19:49.480 What do you want to happen? What's going on? So 0:19:49.520 --> 0:19:52.800 I've already I've already contacted, said Commissioner Jake Sealey. We're 0:19:52.800 --> 0:19:55.160 working to figure out what's going to happen. I haven't 0:19:55.200 --> 0:19:58.560 responded to him yet, but I see both sides of it, 0:19:58.720 --> 0:20:01.879 because here's Scott Barrett is thinking that he won a 0:20:01.920 --> 0:20:05.720 close game, and jagready told me that it was my 0:20:05.760 --> 0:20:08.480 Fantasy League automatically set up the playoff schedule, so he didn't. 0:20:08.640 --> 0:20:10.760 He didn't set up the playoffs schedule himself, so it 0:20:10.840 --> 0:20:12.960 was like an error within like the my Fantasy League 0:20:13.040 --> 0:20:18.359 seating system, like whatever. So I understand because Scott Barrett 0:20:18.400 --> 0:20:20.960 barely won this playoff matchup, but if it wasn't the 0:20:21.040 --> 0:20:23.800 right matchup, it's just weird because now he thinks he 0:20:23.840 --> 0:20:26.720 won this close game and he's probably all excited. He's 0:20:26.880 --> 0:20:29.760 he's the guy on the opposite side of you who 0:20:29.840 --> 0:20:33.159 just barely won his playoff matchup, so he's super excited. 0:20:33.640 --> 0:20:35.719 And now for me to come in and, based on, 0:20:36.760 --> 0:20:40.000 you know, an error in the system, for me to 0:20:40.000 --> 0:20:42.240 take that away from him, Like, I don't know, I 0:20:42.240 --> 0:20:44.239 see both sides of it. I I can't tell if 0:20:44.240 --> 0:20:46.399 I'm being too nice. Obviously I want to advance. Everybody 0:20:46.440 --> 0:20:49.359 wants to advance. I don't know. They brought up he 0:20:49.400 --> 0:20:53.439 brought up the possibility of a three person like triple 0:20:53.520 --> 0:20:55.680 threat match, but then that doesn't really seem fair either. 0:20:56.840 --> 0:20:59.040 I don't know. I'll talk to him. What do you 0:20:59.040 --> 0:21:01.879 think should happen? I don't know. Should I advance? I don't. 0:21:02.640 --> 0:21:05.600 To me, it's weird. I've never been in a situation 0:21:05.600 --> 0:21:07.119 like this. To me, it's bad that like none of 0:21:07.200 --> 0:21:10.800 us noticed this prior. That's probably true. That's a bad 0:21:10.840 --> 0:21:14.760 Like to me, you you probably I guess you're out 0:21:15.320 --> 0:21:18.080 because it wasn't like you said anything immediately, like if 0:21:18.080 --> 0:21:21.119 you don't notice it immediately, like a second the matches 0:21:21.160 --> 0:21:22.399 were now, I was like, hey, I shouldn't do this 0:21:22.520 --> 0:21:25.280 or even on Sunday by faith in my commissioner. I 0:21:25.600 --> 0:21:28.920 get it, I get it, but I think it's I 0:21:28.920 --> 0:21:31.520 think it's on you. I think I don't want it 0:21:31.520 --> 0:21:33.160 to be on you. I want I want I want 0:21:33.160 --> 0:21:36.000 you in. And plus I don't really want to make 0:21:36.040 --> 0:21:39.320 it on you know, some kind of technicality here, like 0:21:39.359 --> 0:21:42.119 would you really want to advance in your matchup now, Greg, 0:21:42.119 --> 0:21:45.119 based on like a stat correction? Hell, yes, I don't know. 0:21:45.280 --> 0:21:48.840 I'm just too like I'm too spiteful. I don't know 0:21:48.840 --> 0:21:50.560 if spiteful is the right word. I would just want 0:21:50.600 --> 0:21:54.000 to win out like correctly, I wouldn't want to win 0:21:54.040 --> 0:21:57.080 based on a technicality or a or a you know, 0:21:57.680 --> 0:21:59.280 STA corrects it. I don't know. It's just me, like, 0:21:59.320 --> 0:22:00.679 I just want to win straight up. I want to 0:22:00.680 --> 0:22:03.040 sit there and say my team was better than years. 0:22:03.119 --> 0:22:05.119 It wasn't based on something that had to change in 0:22:05.200 --> 0:22:06.880 order for me to win. I just want to say 0:22:07.040 --> 0:22:08.679 my team was better than years. I'm better than you. 0:22:09.040 --> 0:22:10.920 That's what I want to be able to say. That's it. 0:22:10.960 --> 0:22:16.879 That's fine, Okay, see what happened. It's cool. I mean whatever. 0:22:17.000 --> 0:22:18.840 It's hard to go back to back in any league. 0:22:19.160 --> 0:22:20.680 It's hard to go back to back in any league. 0:22:21.920 --> 0:22:24.080 I'm sorry. He's just I'm sorry for you. You just 0:22:24.080 --> 0:22:26.280 don't deserve to be out like I deserve to be out. 0:22:26.280 --> 0:22:30.800 I lost, you know I lost? Yes, you did, You didn't, 0:22:32.000 --> 0:22:33.800 John D. Felippo. If it makes you feel any better, 0:22:33.800 --> 0:22:37.439 the person who cost you your fantasy playoff last night, 0:22:37.520 --> 0:22:43.159 Kirk Cousins for fumbling and sucking. John D. Felippo was 0:22:43.200 --> 0:22:45.600 out as the offensive coordinator of the Minnesota like coach, 0:22:45.720 --> 0:22:49.760 terrible game last night? How much is on him? And 0:22:49.800 --> 0:22:51.760 how much I have to credit the Seahawks defense because 0:22:51.760 --> 0:22:55.000 they played well, and you know, I have I have 0:22:55.080 --> 0:22:57.720 like a fantasy football writers Twitter that I like follow. 0:22:58.040 --> 0:23:00.879 There's a bunch of people in here like Josh Norris, 0:23:01.000 --> 0:23:05.040 Matt Camp, Matt Harmon's got Barret all these guys like 0:23:05.080 --> 0:23:09.240 a list, and I see people kind of well, it's 0:23:09.280 --> 0:23:14.240 not John D. Felippel's fault necessarily. What are we talking 0:23:14.280 --> 0:23:16.159 about here, though, because look at all the talent that 0:23:16.160 --> 0:23:17.800 they have. I know, the alfensive line is kind of 0:23:17.840 --> 0:23:20.040 like in shambles, Well, whose fault is that? You know, 0:23:20.119 --> 0:23:22.600 it's the front office's fault? Like build a better offensive line, 0:23:22.880 --> 0:23:25.000 you know, from one year to the next. The Los 0:23:25.000 --> 0:23:27.679 Angeles Rams, once they got Sean McVeigh, they built up 0:23:27.720 --> 0:23:32.439 the offensive line like they knowingly invested in their offensive 0:23:32.440 --> 0:23:34.639 line because that's what they needed to do. And I know, 0:23:34.760 --> 0:23:36.119 you know, when you spend that much money on a 0:23:36.160 --> 0:23:39.639 quarterback like Kirk Cousins, it limits your funds. But no 0:23:39.640 --> 0:23:41.400
