[Andy Holloway]

Ah, welcome in.

[Mike Wright]

You went so short. I was like, what time is it? I don't know.

[Andy Holloway]

Yeah, I normally keep it short when.

[Mike Wright]

You need to freak me out, man.

[Andy Holloway]

Not the response I hoped for from it's baseball time yesterday. Oh, was it fairly negative?

[Jason Moore]

Yeah. Well, that makes a lot of sense because we're a football show.

[Andy Holloway]

I was told that the pitcher's arms need more time to loosen up. That's why the pitchers and catchers show up.

[Mike Wright]

All right. The other guys show up, like at the first game.

[Andy Holloway]

Hold on. Jason wants to talk baseball. One second.

[Jason Moore]

No, they don't talk baseball. Okay. Because, you know, I hate the game.

[Mike Wright]

Yeah.

[Andy Holloway]

And the players and the players.

[Jason Moore]

But correct me if I'm wrong because I don't know anything about that stupid sport. Didn't in like, not olden days. I mean, I guess it's olden days now, but like, you know, like the 90s or whatever.

[Mike Wright]

Didn't the 90s? Come on, man, I don't know.

[Jason Moore]

Okay, so I thought you were going.

[Mike Wright]

To be like back when Babe Ruth.

[Jason Moore]

Not long ago. Not long ago.

[Andy Holloway]

It's a different word. Yeah.

[Jason Moore]

When we were growing up in the 90s, didn't people just like, just try to pitch the whole game and like now it's like there's 12 pitchers every inning.

[Andy Holloway]

Yes. Do you want me to answer why that happens?

[Jason Moore]

And now they're like, well, their arms need even more time to warm up. They're a bunch of babies. No more answers. Move on. Baseball's babies. Andy wants to answer so bad.

[Andy Holloway]

Welcome in.

[Jason Moore]

He's like, oh, I've got the answer, Jason.

[Andy Holloway]

No, you wouldn't do anything with the answer. You know what I mean? You couldn't comprehend the answer.

[Mike Wright]

Also, the answer is going to be they're babies.

[Jason Moore]

Yeah, that's true.

[Mike Wright]

When you hear the answer, doesn't matter what he says. You're like, oh, that's what they're saying.

[Andy Holloway]

Yeah. Now you really want to know?

[Jason Moore]

I'm curious how five words or less.

[Andy Holloway]

They'Re babies because they are super athletes now. And so the training.

[Mike Wright]

Have we gotten too strong for the ligaments?

[Andy Holloway]

Yes, yes, yes, we have. We throw.

[Mike Wright]

Maybe we should slow it down though.

[Andy Holloway]

We throw too fast and we gotta.

[Jason Moore]

Figure out how to upgrade those ligaments. That's the real key. We need to put some platelet rich injections in the ligaments.

[Andy Holloway]

[Jason Moore]

Yeah, this is actually our brand. This is a fantasy footballer's hat.

[Andy Holloway]

I told our letters different.

[Mike Wright]

Al Borland was very helpful in getting these hats off the ground. But then when I. The little logo thing on under the bill, this is new for me. Is this what the youths are doing.

[Jason Moore]

So you don't get it dirty? You put your thumb there when you grab that.

[Mike Wright]

Oh, that's what it's for.

[Jason Moore]

Yes, sir.

[Mike Wright]

[Jason Moore]

The top's gonna get a little dirty, man. It is what it's for. But I do. I mean, the top gets dirty. It's just. We'll have our people work maybe round two version two. Maybe we'll put a button on the top.

[Andy Holloway]

Keep your. You can get your thumb as dirty as you want, Right? Right.

[Jason Moore]

Keep your fingers clean when you're wearing these hats. But you can put your. You can put your thumb in peanut butter and then take this hat off. No problem.

[Mike Wright]

Yeah. So the part that people see is dirty, right? The part people can't see. Very clean.

[Andy Holloway]

Look, you want these hats. They're technologically advanced.

[Andy Holloway]

You're not going to get your hat.

[Andy Holloway]

Off in the rain, man.

[Mike Wright]

Get it on.

[Andy Holloway]

Oh, okay.

[Mike Wright]

Okay.

[Andy Holloway]

Here's your quick question of the day. Matt Wilt wrote it on X. He said he rode Bucky Irving to a championship this year. How high is Bucky Irving? Ceiling next year. Thanks, guys, and congrats Al, on your title. Please stop congratulating Al. Please, just.

[Mike Wright]

Yeah, I don't think that's going to stop.

[Al Borland]

Never stop.

[Andy Holloway]

17 games, 207 carries, 1122 yards, 8 rushing touchdowns, 52 targets, 47 for 392 and 0. I here's you stop congratulating out. But beginning giving Mike his flowers because this was one in the off season that he was spot on. He thought that Bucky Irving could emerge in Tampa and to be.

[Mike Wright]

I would love to Take all this credit. A lot of that was I thought Rashad White was not good enough.

[Andy Holloway]

And I was on the side that you don't like Rashad White.

[Mike Wright]

The vet keeps his full time.

[Andy Holloway]

It was just more like they. It was more on the basis of they were a playoff team. That was great. Baker was awesome. And it was. A lot of it had to do with Rashad White in the receiving game. So why mess with what worked, right? Yeah, but Bucky Irving was so much better of a runner. Right. The offensive line was bad in Tampa last year.

[Mike Wright]

That's how good Bucky is.

[Andy Holloway]

Bucky was that good.

[Mike Wright]

The job wasn't given him. He stole the job. Because you're like, we can't keep Bucky off the field. And so the question is, Rashad White.

[Andy Holloway]

Was a top 15 running back during this down the stretch, and Bucky was still that good.

[Mike Wright]

The question of what is his ceiling is. It's extremely difficult. I didn't know this was going to be our question today, but there was a tweet I saw earlier from Jacob Gibbs. So shout out to him. But he, Bucky Irving and Alvin Camara, which was in 2017 when Camara did it. The only two running backs to top 1500 scrimmage yards with a snap right under 50%. And that is for every fantasy running back. Everything comes down to the decisions of. Well, not everything because talent matters, but the decisions of the coach. Because it's pretty rare that there's two running backs out there on the field at the exact same time. And the running back that is out there, that's a coach's decision. Like with my unbelievable frustration with Rico Dowdle when He's getting these 20 plus carries running great. And then they're like, ah, but in the inside, the goal, when we're close to the goal line, we got to get somebody else in there. And it's. Those are decisions that you just. That those are the big decisions for ceiling.

[Andy Holloway]

This is. This is. This was an amazing rookie season. I feel like there's a huge discussion attached to this. 1500 plus scrimmage yards, 5.96 yards per touch. Hyper efficient. And we have also. We've been here before with the efficiency. Last year, Devon Hn and underdog put this tweet out reminding us of kind of the like Devon Hn came into the year this year. What did he average last year? 7 point something a carry, 7.9 a carry.

[Jason Moore]

Something like that.

[Andy Holloway]

He had 100 more carries in 2024 than he did in his rookie season. Exactly he had 107 more rushing yards on 100 extra carries. So, you know, that's part of the discussion with Bucky. We cannot quantify perfectly how much rest times, you know, when a young player gets to come in and they're complimenting like HN did last year, complimenting Mostert, who is amazing, and Bucky Irving coming in and complimenting and kind of taking over from Rashad White. But getting snaps off, there's not a really easy way to quantify that value and what that does to efficiency. What we do know is when you have a committee backfield, you do miss out on the one yard, fourth down. Right. To mess with your numbers and your. The short yardage and you're. The game's getting put away, but you're getting every snap so the defense knows what you're doing. So your efficiency goes down. Like yards per carry only takes you so far. Really. You have to have film. You have to be able to watch what these players are doing on the field. I don't think any of us think Devon Achan is less talented this year because his efficiency went down.

[Jason Moore]

No, it's because the volume went up.

[Andy Holloway]

Yeah, exactly. So the number. But the numbers look like, oh, you had a down year.

[Jason Moore]

No. And obviously Devon Achan, extremely talented, was great for fantasy football this year. Getting back to the Bucky Irving question and how high can he be next year? To give you an example, you know, I don't know if everybody followed along with Bucky, you know, because in the beginning of the year, he was the closest, very, you know, he was the backup. He was not in a committee on the depth chart. It was Rashad White's team. He was too talented, he was too efficient. They just kept giving him more work. And the beat reporters would say, hey, when are we getting more Bucky? And it's like, well, this is Rashad's backfield. He just kept getting more and more and more because he passed the eyeball test. He broke tackles, he scored touchdowns. He made this team better. If you look at week 10 on, that's really when a transition was made to where this was a. A shared backfield. And it wasn't like Bucky took over. In fact, from week 10 on, check this out. Total snaps played from week 10 on for Rashad White was 50% of the snaps. Total snaps played from week 10 on for Bucky Irving was 50% of the snaps. They were 50, 50. Now, Bucky missed most of a week. He got injured in one of those. So in the rest of the games, Maybe he had a few more. He out touched Rashad White a little bit, but he outclassed Rashad White. A lot of bit you're talking about. Check this out. Ten and a half points for Rashad White from week 10 on per game. And Bucky Irving, if you take out the game, he, he basically didn't play in 18.8 fantasy points per game. The running backs have scored more than that. For context and half ppr, Saquon Barkley, Jameer Gibbs, Derek Henry, he only scored.

[Andy Holloway]

Four touchdowns from that point on. On the ground too. So it was like he had eight on the year, but they came half before that event. So there's. What I love about Bucky's situation moving into the future is that there's going to be a lot of consistency on this team from what we can see. Yeah, Baker had a wonderful career year. He's through a lot of touchdowns. Right. So if you talk about.

[Mike Wright]

Yeah, that should. That can regress.

[Andy Holloway]

That can. That can go more into. Bucky gets that opportunity. Now can he hold up?

[Jason Moore]

That's.

[Andy Holloway]

That's a question we had about HN. HN's been banged up. Bucky's. He got hurt twice this year. So does the team feel like this balance is the right balance? Well, even if he does, it's the numbers that Jason said, you know, there's going to be some variation. But to answer the question succinctly, I think he can be a top seven running back.

[Jason Moore]

I agree. I think he should be a top 15 running back. And his ceiling is probably around running back six.

[Mike Wright]

It's like the, looking at the Jameer Gibbs situation where him and Monty are. They're splitting and they're both being awesome. But it's like Jameer Gibbs, you know, the first month of the season, he, he was never, he wasn't a top 10 running back in any game in the first four weeks. Then you would have these stretches where week seven and eight, running back one and six, but then it's down to 18 and 17. It wasn't until David Montgomery was gone that he rattled off the four consecutive weeks where he was running back 3, 7, 2 and 1. So that the ceiling. I don't know that we. It's. It's going to be, I think, a very like a light version of Detroit where you're going to. Bucky's going to be drafted really high. Rashad White will be later. He'll like, he'll have his own value and that Bucky Irving will be very good. But you know, that Drafting Bucky is. I got this top 15 type of.

[Andy Holloway]

A player, but if White goes down.

[Mike Wright]

If White misses time, now all of a sudden I have a guy who is a weekly top five upside play.

[Andy Holloway]

Another point was that Rashad White caught 91% of his passes from Baker last year, which was like outrageous, right? Like, that's an amazing number. I looked this year. This year he's at 89%. Rashad White catches everything. You want to know what Bucky's number is? 90. Oh, 90.

[Mike Wright]

Give him the ball.

[Andy Holloway]

This might be Baker.

[Jason Moore]

I was going to say it's Baker's.

[Andy Holloway]

Throwing a really good ball to his running back.

[Jason Moore]

The common denominator here is the quarterback because last year is like, oh, we were worried about, you know, losing the offensive coordinator and Liam Cohen comes in, Baker's playing great. So it's really helpful to have a quality offense around. Running backs just. I like the Detroit Lions light.

[Andy Holloway]

Yeah, it makes sense. And you got confidence in the quarterback and the offensive system and it should be really fun for years to come. And if you, if you've got Bucky Irving shares in dynasty, congrats because that's going to be a good ride. Let's talk news.

[Jason Moore]

News and notes from around the league, presented by USAA Insurance.

[Andy Holloway]

The Raiders have fired Antonio Pierce. That didn't work.

[Mike Wright]

No.

[Andy Holloway]

And he didn't have a lot to work with either. But it didn't work.

[Jason Moore]

It.

[Mike Wright]

Yeah, I mean you can't lose like that and just.

[Andy Holloway]

You mean 4 and 13?

[Mike Wright]

Yeah, but I mean like, well, some coaches can survive that. But going 4 and 13 and with at least just publicly what we saw.

[Andy Holloway]

The weirdness of like liking an Instagram post about devonte Adams getting traded.

[Mike Wright]

Yes. You have that weird stuff and I'm talking about like his press conferences where you're just like, dude, you're the, you're the head coach. You can't talk about the team like that. You can't talk about your guys like that.

[Andy Holloway]

Yeah, sometimes. We've seen this many times in the NFL when you are an, you know, an ex player or you come in with a hard nosed attitude, it's an amazing ride at the beginning. It motivates, it gets everybody playing very hard and they finished what was five and four last year after becoming the interim head coach. Everybody's loving it. But when things start to go bad and that same attitude comes forth, if that's indeed what it was, then it can wear, it can wear on team and they're going a different direction. The Lions head coach, Dan Campbell Says he expects the aforementioned David Montgomery to play in the divisional round.

[Mike Wright]

That's so insane. I mean it was his like what? 4th Dr. Yeah. When they got to before.

[Andy Holloway]

Yeah. I mean the timeline has helped now, right? Like you're saying the surgery.

[Mike Wright]

I'm saying they met with. If you remember when all the Montgomery news was coming out, it was oh man, surgery. Montgomery is toast. He's out for the season. And then they're like, well, we don't like that one. We're going to go. What do you say? Dr. He's like, no, I would have to operate on this thing. You'd be, I don't like that either.

[Jason Moore]

Dr. Dr. Campbell, what do you say?

[Andy Holloway]

I think it is a, it's a weird thing like I put the poll out there for fun about whether people believe that Jameer Gibbs being the full time starter makes the Lions better on accident or is their offense missing something without Montgomery?

[Jason Moore]

I was surprised by the results of that poll.

[Andy Holloway]

64% of you said they're better with both. And yes, I do see that the team is better. I don't know if I am on that side.

[Jason Moore]

I voted the other way.

[Andy Holloway]

I think that they are better with Gibbs full time. I do not think they would survive a season. I agree with Gibbs full time. So I think the team is better to have both for the regular season. But I did think it might be fortuitous for their playoff run to have Gibbs on there and every, every down back type of situation. But most people disagree with me.

[Jason Moore]

Well, the nice thing is they can choose to go to Gibbs as an everyday, every down back, whenever is necessary. So if they're in this game and they're down two scores and they feel like their best offense is to have Gibbs out there, then, then they don't have to play Montgomery. But if they're, you know, in a close game or they're up two scores, then might as well have Gibbs continue to rest and have Montgomery, who's very good in his own right. He's not as explosive but he also brings some tackles. Football that wears a defense down that Gibbs doesn't really play that way.

[Andy Holloway]

Yeah. And to me, like people want to talk about Gibbs being undersized like maybe when he came into the NFL. To me he doesn't play that way. He can run inside. I think he's put on weight. You know, we talk about Bucky, right? I mean Bucky is more undersized than even Gibbs, I think. And they can get it done. They can get it done between the tackles. Jalen hurts returned to practice like we expected. Zay Flowers not practicing long shot to play in the wild card.

[Mike Wright]

I still think it's a bummer.

[Andy Holloway]

It's definitely a bummer. But I do think. I mean, the line for them is the biggest line this week without Zay.

[Mike Wright]

Being at the interesting thing, but they.

[Andy Holloway]

Do play each other close historically.

[Mike Wright]

I'm trying to pull the tweet just from memory I don't have in front of me, so I apologize who sent it out, but it was essentially breaking down. The Steelers blitz Lamar a lot.

[Andy Holloway]

Yep.

[Mike Wright]

And then broke into it, broke down the percentage of targets when Lamar has been blitzed, the targets that have gone to Flowers. And it's extremely high. So it's like, okay, if you don't have the blitz release valve of Zay Flowers, somebody will have to step into that role and be efficient at it. And could that turn into a problem?

[Andy Holloway]

Oh, it was.

[Mike Wright]

It was ftn. Okay. Thank you, Kyle.

[Andy Holloway]

To me, that is the. You know, the big question in this game is, can the Steelers defense do something to create a play? Because that would close that gap. Target percentage for Zay Flowers on the year is comical. At wide receiver. Comical.

[Mike Wright]

His wide receiver target.

[Andy Holloway]

His wide receiver target.

[Mike Wright]

What's it at?

[Andy Holloway]

Do you want to take a shot?

[Mike Wright]

Oh, man.

[Andy Holloway]

Last year it was 39%.

[Mike Wright]

I was going to guess right around 50.

[Andy Holloway]

It's 49%. So you were way off. Way, way off. His regular Target share is 25%, but that was including the game where, you know, he just got knocked out. So, yeah, he is. He's very important to their passing game now, whether they need it or not. Like, do you like Henry over 100? I do. Against that. That running defense, they couldn't stop him. A few weeks ago, Isaac Grando sprained MCL and ankle.

[Jason Moore]

I think that is great news.

[Mike Wright]

Yes. Considering the way the injury looked, him being carted off, ruled out immediately. It was, oh, no, something's broken or something's torn.

[Andy Holloway]

I did enjoy all the tweets I received on the news that the Chargers have signed Ezekiel Elliott to their practice squad, soon to be called up to their roster because I had just like the Charger fans have come out and they love me now, all 12 of them. First of all, I didn't know there were any. And second of all, the fact that I picked them to go far in the playoffs.

[Jason Moore]

Go far? You got them all the way to the Super Bowl.

[Andy Holloway]

Yeah, I minimized that, didn't I?

[Jason Moore]

Yeah, you did go all the way to lose just by a nose, unfortunately.

[Andy Holloway]

Heard the podcast and you know, he's trying to win a ring and it was, he said, hey, I'm going to go with I want to get to a Super Bowl.

[Mike Wright]

Unfortunately, I have to root against the Chargers with every fabric of my being now.

[Andy Holloway]

Oh, yeah.

[Mike Wright]

So I apologize for that.

[Andy Holloway]

Todd Ball said Kate Otten is trending in the right direction, so maybe Payton Durham won't be the only tight end active for the Buccaneers.

[Jason Moore]

Big culps, dude. Big culps.

[Andy Holloway]

Big Culps, huh?

[Jason Moore]

I actually think he's someone to pay attention to.

[Mike Wright]

Yeah, I think so, too.

[Jason Moore]

He didn't get a chance until late this season to even, you know, I think his first catch came three weeks ago. This is a rookie and he looks good on the field, so pay attention to him.

[Andy Holloway]

What about, what about you don't like Durham?

[Jason Moore]

I like big Culps.

[Andy Holloway]

All right, Durham got the which his.

[Mike Wright]

Name, by the way, is Devin Culp.

[Andy Holloway]

Yeah, Payne Durham touchdowns in the last two weeks. So we'll see if Kate Otten gets you out there. That was today's news and notes presented as always by USAA Insurance. Learn [e-mail] insurance all right, Devin Culp.

[Jason Moore]

Mailbag. Mailbag.

[Mike Wright]

Ask me anything.

[Andy Holloway]

Okay, the Deucers alleys, they're in it today.

[Mike Wright]

Yeah, they are cracking up.

[Jason Moore]

You want to know why they are laughing so much, gentlemen?

[Mike Wright]

Why is that?

[Andy Holloway]

Lack of self control.

[Jason Moore]

All. Well, partially, but all three of them were in here like an hour or two ago. Yeah, when we recorded an absolutely Diamond Spitballers episode. And so this is the time of year if you are going to the off season. We're down to, you know, we're two shows a week for our main podcast. You want more, you've lost. You listen to other podcasts. All your. All your podcasts are dwindling down. Go check out the Spitballers comedy podcast that, that episode releases on Monday, but you don't want to miss it.

[Mike Wright]

Lot of, lot of it's very funny.

[Andy Holloway]

Intelligence.

[Jason Moore]

A lot of intelligence.

[Mike Wright]

Jeremy, is your trophy not there? What are you doing, man?

[Al Borland]

I think Josh must have moved it, huh?

[Mike Wright]

Well, you're be glad that I'm here for somebody.

[Al Borland]

Put it on the floor. Thank you for bringing that up.

[Andy Holloway]

All right, we will jump into the mailbag. It's a ask me anything episode. You can visit the site if you have other questions for us and click the submit a question but or dial our voicemail hotline. We have some voicemails. Al. Is that. That is true.

[Al Borland]

That is correct.

[Mike Wright]

All right, what's up, bowlers?

[Jason Moore]

I've been wondering this for years. When are we going to finally see Andy on Survivor? Love the show and congrats to Jeremy on the championship. I can answer that for Andy.

[Mike Wright]

The question when will we see Andy on Survivor?

[Andy Holloway]

You have an answer for me?

[Jason Moore]

Yeah, it is as soon as Survivor asks. As soon. The second they ask. Do they ask or do you.

[Andy Holloway]

I would need to. I would need to pursue it. Yeah. I mean, myself and Papa Josh back there, I guess the Falcon two pretty big Survivor fans and I would do.

[Jason Moore]

Anything to see you on Survivor.

[Andy Holloway]

I thought about it. I've thought about it.

[Jason Moore]

I mean, I think I've never watched the show.

[Andy Holloway]

It's not being on it. Like, I would love to be on it. Love to be on it. It's being gone.

[Jason Moore]

Yeah, that's what I was saying. I would love.

[Andy Holloway]

That's why you'd love it. Yeah.

[Mike Wright]

Do you know how long filming is?

[Andy Holloway]

You gotta be gone at least 30 days, probably 40 and even.

[Mike Wright]

I mean, then when you get. If you're the first one kicked off, you're still sequestered, Right.

[Andy Holloway]

You're still hanging out. Yeah.

[Mike Wright]

So no matter what, you're gone for that.

[Jason Moore]

So fun.

[Al Borland]

And you've got the in with apostle, Right?

[Andy Holloway]

I do know Tyson.

[Mike Wright]

Yeah.

[Al Borland]

And who was the other guy that we played pickleball with?

[Mike Wright]

Jeff Probst.

[Jason Moore]

Something.

[Andy Holloway]

No, it wasn't something.

[Jason Moore]

Rob.

[Andy Holloway]

No, it was Boston Rob.

[Al Borland]

Boston Rob. That was it.

[Andy Holloway]

Yeah. So I didn't think about that making people. I could be there in 30 seconds if I wanted to.

[Mike Wright]

I choose not to.

[Jason Moore]

Yeah. Mr. Survivor, reach out to me.

[Andy Holloway]

My kids are now old enough where I think I would just say, yeah, I do.

[Jason Moore]

You would say yes. If they. If. I mean, the problem is you actually need to go to them and, like, audition and whatnot. But if they came to you, I.

[Andy Holloway]

Mean, Papa Josh, you're the. I mean, you guys know me and you know the show. How far am I getting?

[Jason Moore]

You're making it pretty far.

[Andy Holloway]

I'm doing okay.

[Mike Wright]

Yeah, I think so.

[Andy Holloway]

It's more Falcon.

[Jason Moore]

Yeah.

[Andy Holloway]

You go.

[Jason Moore]

You don't get voted. You don't get voted out. You have an allergic reaction on. You have a medical reason for leaving. That's my prediction. You do not get voted off.

[Andy Holloway]

You want to race right now? All right.

[Mike Wright]

Amazing.

[Andy Holloway]

We've good. Here's a question off of X from Baylor, not Baller Baylor. What were the other options for the name of the show before you chose the fantasy footballers, we did say, ask us anything. I.

[Jason Moore]

It's a question for you.

[Mike Wright]

Two fantasy hit men was the only one I remember.

[Andy Holloway]

Was that in? That was in.

[Mike Wright]

It was just.

[Andy Holloway]

It wasn't considered.

[Mike Wright]

It was never seriously considered. But we had a list. Like, it's weird because Andy and I have the memories of, like. I can see he hand wrote all these things on, like, notebook paper. And I can see it in my head. I just can't remember any of the other names. But of the list of names, Andy was like, he's over here with his business savvy tech mind of, like, fantasy footballers. This. This could be a good name. And I'm like, that name's kind of funny. We should go with that.

[Andy Holloway]

Yeah, Yeah. I.

[Mike Wright]

We can get the domain right. That was part of it.

[Andy Holloway]

We did have a small period of time in the beginning where it was confused a little bit with soccer.

[Jason Moore]

Yeah.

[Andy Holloway]

Because that was the way footballer was used.

[Jason Moore]

Yeah. Most often used to be that footballers were soccer players. But we took that over.

[Andy Holloway]

I was looking at that SEO, man. How do we get a name close to the topic? We do. We were going to do fantasy football.

[Mike Wright]

It's hard to forget. What's that? Fantasy football show.

[Jason Moore]

I like fantasy football.

[Andy Holloway]

There you go. Jose Gonzalez wants to know what is the best sandwich and where did you have it?

[Mike Wright]

Oh, so this isn't. This is a very, very specific. Just the one sandwich.

[Jason Moore]

The sandwich that's not like, what is.

[Andy Holloway]

The best sandwich to make? That is more like. Can you remember a sandwich?

[Mike Wright]

I can because it was like, two months ago.

[Andy Holloway]

Wait, your best sandwich was two months ago, Eve?

[Mike Wright]

I don't know if it was the. It's recency bias, of course, but it was. It was this good that it was like a sandwich. Bought one just for me and the wife to split. And then as soon as both of us start eating, we're like, oh, man, we have made a mistake.

[Andy Holloway]

Oh, the splitting was a big mistake. Yeah.

[Jason Moore]

Bought another.

[Mike Wright]

Yeah. Well, we were already home. But it was from. It's a change. So it's Ike's Sandwiches. Ike's Loving sandwiches. But it was. It was a form of a Reuben, dude.

[Andy Holloway]

That's my answer.

[Mike Wright]

But it was basically, it was more of a. It was a New Yorker, not a real Reuben, because it was coleslaw instead of Kraut.

[Andy Holloway]

My answer was going to be this Reuben New Yorker sandwich at Chompy's, which is a place out here.

[Mike Wright]

Oh, yeah.

[Andy Holloway]

I had.

[Mike Wright]

Did you ever have the one from Miracle Mile. Oh, Ruben. No, no, put that one back at the top.

[Andy Holloway]

Rubentown.

[Mike Wright]

New Yorker.

[Andy Holloway]

New Yorker. I mean, you could go Rubin town. What makes a New Yorker and a Reuben different? Like, it's coleslaw.

[Mike Wright]

Coleslaw. Coleslaw. Or sauerkraut. But oh, my gosh. We had this place called Mirac Mile. You get a New Yorker there, you put that thing on a roll. Who.

[Jason Moore]

That was a young man's game.

[Mike Wright]

Oh, I'll do it right now. If that thing were here. Oh, my goodness.

[Andy Holloway]

Jason, do you have a sandwich? Answer.

[Jason Moore]

I would say the best sandwich. Jeremy. You know it. I've ever get it on the mic.

[Al Borland]

That used to be once a week lunch for me.

[Mike Wright]

Dude, that sandwich was unbelievable.

[Al Borland]

It was so good.

[Jason Moore]

Is Miracle Mile gone?

[Mike Wright]

I think there's still.

[Al Borland]

There's still one left.

[Mike Wright]

One.

[Jason Moore]

It looks like we're traveling.

[Andy Holloway]

Foot Clan.

[Jason Moore]

Honestly, it's a sandwich my wife made is so good that she's made it 100 times since then. My wife's ham and cheese we call. No, come on. This is an everything bagel. Toasted, buttered, and then it's basically an Italian sandwich inside. But, I mean, this is chock full of everything. We call it a bas. It's a bomb sandwich.

[Andy Holloway]

Okay. All right.

[Mike Wright]

Okay, Okay. I read between the lines.

[Andy Holloway]

Justin on Instagram writing in what is the favorite video game of all time for each of the Ballers and the.

[Mike Wright]

Deucers no one wants to do.

[Andy Holloway]

I feel like the Andosers went in there from Papa Josh.

[Jason Moore]

He wrote that in Red Dead Redemption 2.

[Mike Wright]

Okay.

[Jason Moore]

Final Fantasy 7.

[Mike Wright]

OG or OG OG OG A Link to the Past.

[Andy Holloway]

Okay. And doosers. Halo 3 multiplayer, specifically.

[Mike Wright]

Oh, baby. I used to get down Papa Josh.

[Jason Moore]

God of War 2018.

[Mike Wright]

Is that the original? The first one. Oh, no. 2018.

[Andy Holloway]

And Al. Do you have a video game? Tetris.

[Al Borland]

I don't play video games.

[Mike Wright]

Minesweeper.

[Al Borland]

I like to play Mario Kart with my kid.

[Mike Wright]

That's okay.

[Andy Holloway]

Okay. Favorite of all time.

[Mike Wright]

You don't let him win, do you?

[Al Borland]

Never.

[Jason Moore]

Good, good man.

[Mike Wright]

Got to teach them you earn victories.

[Andy Holloway]

Goodness, this is great. I have seen none of these questions before. I'm asking them either.

[Mike Wright]

Oh, by the way, Brooks said BioShock for him.

[Andy Holloway]

BioShock.

[Mike Wright]

Yeah. That's a good game.

[Andy Holloway]

Okay.

[Mike Wright]

That's a good game.

[Andy Holloway]

Yeah, if you make a classic, it'll be Super Mario World.

[Mike Wright]

Kyle, get in here.

[Jason Moore]

Kyle's typing.

[Mike Wright]

No, he's not.

[Andy Holloway]

King Griffey Jr. On Super Nintendo. There we go now.

[Mike Wright]

There we go. That's A game.

[Andy Holloway]

King Griffith Jr. Baseball was the freaking best sports game.

[Mike Wright]

That was a good one.

[Jason Moore]

Super tech mobile.

[Andy Holloway]

That. That. That was awesome. All right, we got another voicemail question.

[Jason Moore]

Yo, bowlers, this is Ab from Australia. I don't sure how much this is going to cost me, but just thought I'd ring in.

[Andy Holloway]

So I just wanted to know if.

[Jason Moore]

You were to be stuck in an.

[Andy Holloway]

Elevator for six hours with one footballer.

[Jason Moore]

Who would it be and why?

[Andy Holloway]

I mean, so we choose one of the other two to be stuck in an elevator with. Not Jason.

[Mike Wright]

Number one.

[Andy Holloway]

Yeah, it's just gas related.

[Jason Moore]

Gassy, man.

[Andy Holloway]

Just gas related. An elevator for six hours. I'm thinking about bodily functions and Mike doesn't talk.

[Jason Moore]

To be fair.

[Andy Holloway]

That'd be nice.

[Jason Moore]

To be fair. I don't. My gas is not usually very stinky. It really is.

[Mike Wright]

That's accurate.

[Jason Moore]

But I would explode if I don't fart for six hours. That's not how I work. So you will be breathing the insides of me inside this element.

[Andy Holloway]

Mike, who are you choosing now?

[Jason Moore]

Oh, yeah. But Mike, pick me.

[Mike Wright]

Well, first pick me. Number one. Bonjour. Number. Number two. Does Australia still have long distances?

[Jason Moore]

I know, it's like, what are you paying for this?

[Mike Wright]

This is 4.99aminute.

[Andy Holloway]

I don't know.

[Jason Moore]

Just call collect, man. It was.

[Mike Wright]

Who was the other phone company there was at and t. Like MCI or something like that.

[Andy Holloway]

Long distance, is that right?

[Mike Wright]

Josh is nodding with.

[Jason Moore]

Josh is old enough.

[Andy Holloway]

If I call France right now, it doesn't cost me more.

[Jason Moore]

No, it doesn't cost me.

[Andy Holloway]

Because long distance used to be across state lines. You'd pay more here.

[Mike Wright]

Yes.

[Andy Holloway]

Yeah, here. But I'm just saying, like. But if I called Australia, like right now, it's fine. It doesn't cost me nothing.

[Jason Moore]

It doesn't cost you anything.

[Al Borland]

No, I think it's just roaming. If you went to Australia and tried to call home, then you would pay more.

[Jason Moore]

Unless you just get on WI Fi, then you're fine.

[Andy Holloway]

So I can ring.

[Mike Wright]

Roaming is 59.99aminute.

[Andy Holloway]

You gotta be making international calls from the US Incurs extra cost, but it depends on the service provider.

[Mike Wright]

All right, but obviously I cannot be in a with Jason for six hours because I would be breathing his insides.

[Jason Moore]

Yeah, I'm gonna pick. So I will pick Mike.

[Andy Holloway]

Okay.

[Mike Wright]

I mean, just for that, if you.

[Andy Holloway]

Were stuck to make him breathe your insides.

[Jason Moore]

Oh, I will be eaten bad before. Where's. Where's Miracle Mile? Is that where I go?

[Mike Wright]

Oh, man.

[Jason Moore]

All right, let's get in the elevator after that.

[Mike Wright]

If I get a New Yorker, I accept. I'll be stuck in an elevator six hours.

[Andy Holloway]

You'd give him the gas. I would try to make small talk with Mike.

[Mike Wright]

What I was going to say is.

[Andy Holloway]

It would be like it could turn.

[Mike Wright]

Into a six hour therapy session for you or you would just talk for six hours. Okay. You wouldn't be talking because I would spend. Yeah.

[Andy Holloway]

I'll be like, I hope we get out of here soon. And be like, yeah, yeah. Oh my God.

[Jason Moore]

With his sunglasses on.

[Andy Holloway]

Yeah. He would never take them off.

[Jason Moore]

Eyes are closed.

[Andy Holloway]

West Blues, right. Sonny's on on Instagram. What is your most regretted draft pick and why?

[Mike Wright]

Oh, so many brother. Whoa.

[Andy Holloway]

Most regretted I will always come back to. And this is a classic and maybe losing its relevance by the years. But when Calvin Johnson, the year he broke out, I drafted Lawrence Moroney to pick before him. Oops. And Maroney was a New England Patriot running back who had had a nice previous season.

[Jason Moore]

What about players people have heard of?

[Mike Wright]

They've heard of Calvin Johnson.

[Andy Holloway]

I don't know. I mean I've been in nine title games. I don't make very many wrong picks.

[Jason Moore]

Oh, impressive.

[Al Borland]

How'd the last one go?

[Mike Wright]

Oh, man.

[Andy Holloway]

Swish.

[Mike Wright]

The worst one.

[Andy Holloway]

I mean I think it was last year I drafted Damian Pierce. Yeah, that was a terrible pick.

[Jason Moore]

Yeah.

[Mike Wright]

Yeah.

[Jason Moore]

The.

[Andy Holloway]

He's getting all that workload in the preseason. The big liars, man.

[Mike Wright]

Worst one. There might be a worse one, but this, the one that's coming to my head is years ago.

[Andy Holloway]

Mark Andrews over Trey McBride.

[Mike Wright]

That one by the end of the year.

[Andy Holloway]

What about Marvin Harrison Over.

[Mike Wright]

Over A.J. brown? Yeah, that one felt bad.

[Andy Holloway]

And it didn't work out for you?

[Mike Wright]

No, it didn't work out for me. It worked out for me and it.

[Andy Holloway]

Was ended up okay. But you were already a dead man.

[Mike Wright]

Yes, but it was years ago and this probably now that I'm even working through it therapeutically. This probably led to the me thinking Adam Thielen is the oldest and most terrible person ever. Which he's not.

[Jason Moore]

But we.

[Mike Wright]

I took Adam Thielen over Jalen Waddle and this was I think two or three years ago. So whenever Waddle had his breakout season and Adam Thielen was not good.

[Jason Moore]

So I think last year in the Listener league I had a pretty good team as 14 teams. So you know, it's harder in that league. I had a pretty good team develop but the quarterbacks had all been coming off the board and I had a co manager in that one. And we decided, look, we're just going to swing for the fence. If you got to beat 14 people, you got to. You got to get a little lucky. And we drafted to Sean Watson, thinking maybe he would come back to life. And it was like that was basically saying because there weren't, you know, it wasn't easy to stream off the waivers with all the quarterbacks rostered. And it was like, well, my season's over because that dude sucks also. That dude sucks.

[Mike Wright]

I remember the worst. Clyde Edwards allaire in a rookie draft before Jonathan Taylor. Oh, yeah, that's the worst.

[Andy Holloway]

Yeah. That's not very good.

[Jason Moore]

Oh. Which if we're going rookie picks. Trey Sermon. Who did I take over? Jalen Wall. Over Jalen Wall. That's right.

[Andy Holloway]

Instagram question co found. Mike, tell us about your tattoos.

[Mike Wright]

Well, there's a lot of them.

[Jason Moore]

They are. Each one, they're a colorful.

[Andy Holloway]

Your most like, if you like have a database with all the tattoos and the dates. What's the most recent tattoo? Date wise?

[Mike Wright]

Oh, it's probably been like, it's been a long time. You could, you could see it if like you go track it down on YouTube, you can watch.

[Andy Holloway]

You got sleeved while you were still here.

[Mike Wright]

Yeah, this, my right arm was done while we were in this studio. So you could watch it over shows. 7 years, get pieced together. It's been a long time.

[Jason Moore]

So you're gonna be able to see my face get tatted over the next ten.

[Andy Holloway]

You're not done?

[Mike Wright]

No.

[Andy Holloway]

But this is a big break.

[Mike Wright]

It's. It's the classic. I'm going to get more ink when I get in shape.

[Andy Holloway]

Oh, is that a. That's a big thing.

[Mike Wright]

And I've been working on that for about six years.

[Jason Moore]

Well, what's your favorite tattoo?

[Mike Wright]

My favorite tattoo is my space shuttle show.

[Jason Moore]

The TV rocket ship.

[Mike Wright]

I don't know how.

[Jason Moore]

Zoom in jaw.

[Mike Wright]

Of course I have sleeves on. Boys.

[Jason Moore]

Yeah. The one day.

[Mike Wright]

Yeah, that one's nice. That one's my favorite cat.

[Andy Holloway]

Dad says, tell us one thing that has to be on your super bowl plate. So you're watching the game. What do you have to have?

[Jason Moore]

So it's. It's cliche, it's boring, but it's also absolutely necessary. And it's the best. It's pizza. Like, when I think of football and I want food, it's. It's pizza and wings. That's.

[Andy Holloway]

Pizza would have been my answer.

[Mike Wright]

The world famous fantasy Hitman diploma, which is a sausage dip. And it is very delicious.

[Andy Holloway]

It is Rotel.

[Mike Wright]

So it's. Yeah, a half. One serving size is a half a pound of sausage. I use. We use a sweet Italian sausage. One can of rotel. We go mild because everyone else in my house is a baby. And then one block of Philly cream cheese. And that's.

[Jason Moore]

I don't think Mike knows what one serving means.

[Mike Wright]

I'm saying.

[Jason Moore]

You're saying for the whole party.

[Mike Wright]

I'm saying portion. Sorry, serving is the wrong word.

[Andy Holloway]

No, portion is the wrong word.

[Jason Moore]

Portion is also wrong.

[Mike Wright]

But, like, what am I.

[Jason Moore]

You're saying for one dish, one amount. Yeah. For everybody. One.

[Mike Wright]

Yes.

[Jason Moore]

Yeah. One pot.

[Andy Holloway]

Maybe for him it is a portion.

[Jason Moore]

Well, I mean, it's very good.

[Mike Wright]

It's not a ton. It's not a ton. I'm just saying, like, that's the ratio.

[Jason Moore]

Of block of cream cheese.

[Mike Wright]

Yeah.

[Jason Moore]

Sausage and pound of sausage. I like putting it down.

[Mike Wright]

If you go a full pound, it'll be. Some people will like it.

[Andy Holloway]

Too meaty.

[Mike Wright]

Too meaty for me.

[Andy Holloway]

We'll take a quick break and get into some more questions.

[Jason Moore]

YouTube question comes in from Mr. LD. When they make the movie Fantasy Footballers, a podcast to change the world, who will play you all? And would it be a musical or on the Lifetime network?

[Mike Wright]

Oh, we have to choose between those two.

[Jason Moore]

I think a musical between those two.

[Mike Wright]

You got to go musical. Do not put us on Lifetime. I can't. I can't with those movies.

[Andy Holloway]

I can't believe they made that, like, Taylor Swift Kelsey movie.

[Mike Wright]

Well, they made that other. Oh, it wasn't Lifetime, but there was the Hernandez movie where they had the fake Gronk.

[Andy Holloway]

That's the one I was thinking of, too. Oh, no. Yeah. That was a separate movie.

[Mike Wright]

Yes.

[Andy Holloway]

What are they doing?

[Mike Wright]

So cash and checks is what.

[Andy Holloway]

We haven't had to answer this question in a while.

[Jason Moore]

Yeah. You're Baby Goose. You're Ryan Gosling, right?

[Andy Holloway]

That's who we normally go with. Yeah. Unless neighbor gets these acting.

[Jason Moore]

Oh, there you go. I don't care. Look like him or not. I demand it be Chris Pratt. I demand it. He can be overweight. That's great. He can get in shape. He's funny, so I like him. That's. That's.

[Andy Holloway]

You just. You're just choosing him?

[Jason Moore]

I'm just choosing him. It's either him or Jack Black, and I would much rather have Chris Pratt.

[Andy Holloway]

Jack Black it is. Mike, do we have a. I'm googling.

[Mike Wright]

Actors with big heads.

[Andy Holloway]

Oh, yeah, you got a lot of.

[Jason Moore]

Egos in that search result.

[Andy Holloway]

Danny DeVito's got a big head.

[Jason Moore]

Oh, DeVito.

[Mike Wright]

We've already been Danny. One of us is Danny DeVito, and it's not me. We've already said that. That was Alan.

[Andy Holloway]

Oh, the champ. Yeah.

[Mike Wright]

This list says Conan O'Brien, Mark Ruffalo.

[Andy Holloway]

Oh, big heads.

[Mike Wright]

Ethan Hawke.

[Andy Holloway]

John Travolta, Matt LeBlanc, maybe some people out there. I don't know the actor that you look like.

[Mike Wright]

Yeah, maybe.

[Andy Holloway]

Maybe they can share with us.

[Mike Wright]

When I was a teen, I got comped at least a couple times to JT from the hit series Step by Step.

[Andy Holloway]

Okay, Yeah, I remember him.

[Jason Moore]

How about Nick Offerman? I'm just trying to think. Beer?

[Andy Holloway]

Well, he wouldn't. Yeah, I mean, he would at least not talk on an elevator, too.

[Mike Wright]

Yeah, we got some similarities.

[Andy Holloway]

I decided to ask Chad GBT who Mike Wright of the Fantasy Footballers looks like.

[Jason Moore]

Chat.

[Andy Holloway]

GBT knows who I am, and here is the answer that I received.

[Jason Moore]

This is great.

[Mike Wright]

Yes.

[Andy Holloway]

Mike Wright of the Fantasy Footballers has often been compared Danny DeVito to Chris Pratt.

[Jason Moore]

Oh, come on. No, they got you. Tell him. You got the wrong name there. That's not true, Jason.

[Mike Wright]

Change your answer immediately.

[Jason Moore]

That's not true.

[Al Borland]

I uploaded a picture of the three of you guys, and I got. Person on the left being Mike Wright would be played by Chris Hemsworth.

[Jason Moore]

Oh, baby. Can I have Chris Pratt back now? You're fine with that, right?

[Mike Wright]

That's fine.

[Al Borland]

Person in the middle being Andy Holloway would be played by Ryan Gosling.

[Mike Wright]

Oh, Jason.

[Al Borland]

And person on the right being Jason would be played by Jonah Hill.

[Jason Moore]

All right. Hey, I'll take it.

[Andy Holloway]

Yes.

[Jason Moore]

That's not bad.

[Mike Wright]

Jonah Hill has slimmed down and he's very funny, but one of us got Chris Hemsworth.

[Andy Holloway]

I actually just asked the same question for Jason. They gave me Jason Siegel. Maybe they were just looking for a shared first name.

[Jason Moore]

Oh, yeah, sure. I'll take Jason Siegel. He's super funny. Better than Steven Seagal. What? Swish. It's an AMA show. We can do anything here.

[Mike Wright]

I'm just trying to.

[Andy Holloway]

Barely. Barely putting it together.

[Mike Wright]

I know it's just the same last.

[Jason Moore]

Name, but they're basically father son.

[Mike Wright]

Dude. Steven Seagal has some amazing stories out there, if you haven't looked into them.

[Andy Holloway]

YouTube question. Zero tolerance 73.

[Jason Moore]

Under siege. That would be a good name for the Spitballers episode that comes out on Monday. If you make sure you look that.

[Andy Holloway]

Up, people, who's y'all's favorite Marvel? This question from YouTube. For me, it is Wolverine.

[Jason Moore]

For me, it's Iron Man. He started it off. He's the leader. He's the best.

[Mike Wright]

And it's really hard not to be Wolverine, but it's still Spider man for me.

[Andy Holloway]

When you say started it off, you.

[Jason Moore]

Clearly mean the movies. Yeah, the movie universe, you know, that went crazy.

[Mike Wright]

Were you not a Marvel Guy before the.

[Jason Moore]

No, not really.

[Mike Wright]

Universe.

[Jason Moore]

No, I don't. I don't think I was. I mean, honestly, before, Before Iron man came out, like, when I think about superhero movies, it was like, you had the Batmans, you had. Well, we had Superman, we had cartoons.

[Mike Wright]

Like, we had the X Men cartoon.

[Andy Holloway]

Where I loved Wolverine. That's why I was a Wolverine fan. YouTube question from the Lame Raccoon. As native Phoenicians, which one of the footballers drives the fastest?

[Jason Moore]

Oh, that's me for sure. I mean, like, is Jason. Yeah.

[Andy Holloway]

I would say that the scale goes Mike. Me, Jason.

[Jason Moore]

100%. Mike is a very slow driver. Cautious or he's just, he's just chill. You're a very bus. Okay, that's. That's a kinder word.

[Mike Wright]

I drive five to seven over.

[Jason Moore]

What a slow poke. I should be in jail. Yeah, I mean, I don't.

[Andy Holloway]

Are you still?

[Jason Moore]

I haven't had a ticket in many years.

[Mike Wright]

He'll never catch me. Here we go.

[Jason Moore]

It's been a long time since I got a ticket. I think the last time I was pulled over was criminal speeding though. But that was 15 years ago.

[Andy Holloway]

Yeah.

[Jason Moore]

Now I just go faster. They don't see me.

[Andy Holloway]

Uh huh huh huh. Yeah. It's Jason. It's Jason. All right, this question, let's go. YouTube question from Peter. What is everyone's favorite hobby outside of fantasy football?

[Jason Moore]

Pickleball.

[Andy Holloway]

That's your favorite hobby?

[Jason Moore]

I think it's what I enjoy the most outside of it. Yeah.

[Andy Holloway]

I would have answered cooking for you.

[Jason Moore]

That would be up there too. I mean, I don't have many hobbies. It's like fantasy.

[Andy Holloway]

I always hate this question because I feel like I'm a loser when they ask me this question.

[Mike Wright]

Why?

[Andy Holloway]

Because I don't have good answers. My answers are like, I just. I'm like a dad. Like a dad's my hobby. See?

[Jason Moore]

Yeah, but you love pickleball too.

[Andy Holloway]

I do. But like, favorite hobby, I guess just means the thing, you know.

[Jason Moore]

So your favorite hobby is probably video games because that's what you.

[Andy Holloway]

I play video games and pickleball, I guess. Yeah.

[Mike Wright]

Yeah. The most enjoyment is pickleball. But you can't always do that. I mean, you have to have time and people together. But music and so guitar playing and video games.

[Andy Holloway]

X question here from Funk zero fan. If you could pick up the studio and your families and move to any other San Diego, US town on someone else's dime, which city would you pick?

[Jason Moore]

San Diego. That would be mine. Perfect weather, year round. I love San Diego.

[Andy Holloway]

Nah.

[Jason Moore]

Where would you go?

[Andy Holloway]

Probably Tahoe. Hawaii.

[Mike Wright]

Oh, State. Which city are you going to?

[Andy Holloway]

I will go to the island of Maui.

[Mike Wright]

Okay.

[Andy Holloway]

And I don't know, coast of Kanapali.

[Mike Wright]

Oh, that's a good pool.

[Jason Moore]

Yeah, it's.

[Mike Wright]

That's probably where I would take us to.

[Jason Moore]

Yeah, I bet you'd be fine with either place, so.

[Mike Wright]

Oh, I'll take San Diego. Yeah, absolutely.

[Andy Holloway]

It's not a bad question.

[Jason Moore]

I don't think I would want to live in Hawaii. I want to go to Hawaii.

[Andy Holloway]

But why would you want to live, like, other than the weather? Like, the weather in San Diego is great, but the driving is not great.

[Jason Moore]

Driving. It's not like la. It's not at all.

[Andy Holloway]

It's not good.

[Jason Moore]

It's. It's the same as Phoenix. Phoenix. It's not like driving here is great.

[Mike Wright]

Driving here has gotten ridiculous.

[Andy Holloway]

You. You always taught you grew up and you, you would go and your summers were Santa Monica.

[Jason Moore]

Yes, correct.

[Andy Holloway]

But you're saying San Diego.

[Jason Moore]

Yes, Santa Monica is great, but the problem is you have to live in LA area. And the driving there is worse than anything that exists. Like, whatever bad things are out there. The worst of the list is driving in Los Angeles. Nothing like that in San Diego.

[Andy Holloway]

Okay. All right. Do we have time for more of these questions, or should we move on here? Al, do you. Do you know if we should hit some more?

[Al Borland]

Let's do two more.

[Andy Holloway]

All right. Ryan writes in Ryan Lovell from Twitter, says, my wife and I just had twins.

[Mike Wright]

Congratulations.

[Andy Holloway]

A boy and a girl. Our first. Our first children.

[Jason Moore]

That's how I did it. Boy and girl twins for our first.

[Andy Holloway]

Jason, what tips do you have for another twin?

[Jason Moore]

Dad, you came to the right place. Look, if you've got twins, you do everything. So you're changing diapers, you're doing bottle feedings, you're up at night, and it's going to make you such a better, more capable father and person. So congratulations. You don't know any better. Lose sleep. And then if you have a third, you know, like these two guys, like, third is harder.

[Andy Holloway]

And you.

[Jason Moore]

Yeah, but I'm saying, you guys, we didn't have twins. The third, you never went through two at once.

[Mike Wright]

Right.

[Jason Moore]

So it was like a third was just adding one more to parenting. This was like, oh, one baby does nothing. So it's a breeze.

[Andy Holloway]

Ron writes in. What is your favorite part of the off season, real life included, such as more family time. We all know Jason loves those birthday parties, though.

[Jason Moore]

Oh, gosh. It's one of my favorite Things.

[Andy Holloway]

You still going to the same amount of birthday parties as you used to? Probably less.

[Jason Moore]

No, no. Thankfully the kids have gotten older and it's like the birthday. I don't go to the. They're like a teenager's birthday parties anymore. You know, it's like my dad came to the movie. No, you just go and hang out and it's delightful.

[Mike Wright]

A part of the off season I really, really like is like you get two days off right back to back. And it like love the job. Not. It's not complaining, but when you're like at week 15 and it's like it's a six day work week essentially with including a bunch of nights like, okay, I'm ready to have two days in a row off. It's. It's nice.

[Andy Holloway]

We record our shows in the afternoon before the day they come out in the offseason.

[Mike Wright]

Yeah.

[Andy Holloway]

So I really enjoy a slightly longer morning. We're not rushing in to record.

[Jason Moore]

Yeah. My favorite part, my enjoyment of the off season is two things. One, I really love scouting and getting to know the rookies. From a work standpoint, it's that from a non work standpoint, it's getting out of Dodge, it's going on a vacation. Like I love just whatever it is, a cruise, going somewhere. I like traveling.

[Andy Holloway]

Steven Seagal, really?

[Jason Moore]

Swoosh.

[Andy Holloway]

All right, well, the playoffs are coming up, which means we are going to continue our Fantasy Face Off.

[Jason Moore]

Fantasy Face off presented by DraftKings.

[Andy Holloway]

Well, we've got a bunch of wild card weekend games coming up and Andy was.

[Jason Moore]

Last week's loser of Fantasy Face off. But he.

[Mike Wright]

But this is a different version.

[Jason Moore]

There's a different version. So he thinks he's getting away with it, but he's not. You. You got bring that wheel up, baby. Oh, Andy, go ahead.

[Mike Wright]

This is a surprise to even me.

[Jason Moore]

Yeah, spin the wheel, buddy.

[Mike Wright]

Oh, please. Be just slime dropping all over him.

[Jason Moore]

Oh, yeah.

[Mike Wright]

This man. MTV Cringe League of record Lose. Oh, Banana Rama. Oh, Banana Rama.

[Jason Moore]

Oh. So first is the banana face. There you go. You put that in. That looks great. And will Levis. What was he famous for, Mike?

[Mike Wright]

Eating mayonnaise.

[Jason Moore]

Oh, that's disgusting. What do you got there, Andy? Oh, you got a jar of mayonnaise and a spoon.

[Andy Holloway]

Feeling really Batman in this thing. Real fat, man.

[Jason Moore]

Imagine Mike tried to wear that. So I don't know, man. I feel like if you're going to go the whole way, maybe you.

[Mike Wright]

That's up to you.

[Jason Moore]

Try that mayo. I won't make you.

[Andy Holloway]

But how big does this spoonful have to be.

[Jason Moore]

It doesn't have to be big. You just go a little bit.

[Mike Wright]

Ski.

[Jason Moore]

Oh, he's going. He's going hard. That's a big spoon. Go to YouTube immediately. Always taking a big spoon of. Yeah.

[Mike Wright]

Did you switch it?

[Jason Moore]

Yeah, we switched.

[Mike Wright]

I thought you might have.

[Jason Moore]

Well, kinda. Well, kind of.

[Mike Wright]

Wait.

[Al Borland]

It's about 40% vanilla pudding, 60% mayonnaise.

[Jason Moore]

I was told it was gonna be switched to vanilla pudding. I was told this was. Here's what's great about what you just did, Andy. If you didn't do that, I was gonna say, then I will do it. And I was gonna go take a very confident bite, knowing that it was vanilla pudding. You're telling me.

[Mike Wright]

We're working our way through this one.

[Jason Moore]

Okay, so he hasn't thrown up yet.

[Andy Holloway]

Okay. That was a confusing flavor.

[Jason Moore]

You kind of liked it.

[Mike Wright]

Hey, I'm proud of you.

[Andy Holloway]

The first taste was. This isn't mayonnaise. That was a. So it was a vanilla tone.

[Jason Moore]

Right.

[Andy Holloway]

But then there was the sour, then the vanilla.

[Jason Moore]

Then the mayonnaise came through.

[Andy Holloway]

Yeah. Really?

[Mike Wright]

You guys couldn't figure out how to get it up to a hundo?

[Jason Moore]

Yeah.

[Andy Holloway]

Was that your gag on. The gag was. You did well.

[Mike Wright]

We wanted.

[Al Borland]

If Jason took it, we wanted him to be surprised as well.

[Jason Moore]

Oh, I was the win. I won last week. You're fired. Also, real quick, before we move on, and Mike mentioned it, but, dude, you didn't hesitate like that. I am so proud of you. You took a heaping spoonful and put that mayo in your mouth.

[Andy Holloway]

Here's the honest truth. I'm a pretty big mayo fan.

[Jason Moore]

He's like, I do this all the time.

[Andy Holloway]

I just felt like I'd be okay.

[Jason Moore]

Can't threaten me with a good time.

[Andy Holloway]

I like mayo.

[Mike Wright]

I. I'm with it too. I love mayonnaise. But where.

[Andy Holloway]

This was a surprise.

[Mike Wright]

Where my stomach is at right now, there's no way I could take a bite of this out.

[Andy Holloway]

I'm feeling different. I'm feeling different things right now.

[Jason Moore]

I just can't believe how much you put on the spoon.

[Andy Holloway]

I didn't want to be.

[Jason Moore]

I want to get, like, a little taste and put it in.

[Andy Holloway]

I wanted you to know I'd be fine on Survivor.

[Jason Moore]

All right. Oh, hey. All right. You know, Survivors, there's a lot of.

[Mike Wright]

Mayonnaise drops in Survivor.

[Andy Holloway]

Look, sometimes you got to eat things you don't want to eat.

[Jason Moore]

Okay. All right.

[Andy Holloway]

And I'm feeling it now.

[Mike Wright]

Absolute unit.

[Andy Holloway]

Why don't you explain what we're doing for the playoffs here.

[Jason Moore]

All right.

[Andy Holloway]

So I wear this banana head.

[Jason Moore]

Yeah. So we are going to through the playoffs be playing draftkings picks. Now pick six is a super fun game. There's all the stats from all the players that you're used to and you're basically going to pick more or less on these player projections. You know someone's got more or less than half an interception or this amount of yardage or whatever. You make two or more picks from the same group of the same group of games, the same slate and then you get paid out if you hit. So we are all bringing things are.

[Mike Wright]

Turning on Andy right now it's just barking.

[Jason Moore]

Oh man.

[Mike Wright]

Get through the show.

[Jason Moore]

And he's getting got on these episodes lately.

[Andy Holloway]

Yeah, I feel real good.

[Jason Moore]

So I'll kick it off with my pick six combo. My two of our of our six of our six. So we each made our own little entry here and I am taking Zach ertz More than 39 and a half receiving yards.

[Andy Holloway]

That's a good amount.

[Jason Moore]

It's a good amount but he's hit it a lot. Especially if you take out the injury game in that first game back from the concussion. He's basically usually over this. And I believe Tampa Bay Buccaneers have given up the second most yardage to tight end. So I really like that pick and I'm going with Jordan Love less than 227 and a half passing yards because he hasn't looked good. He hasn't hit this number but like once in the last two months or something he's beat up. He's beat up, he's injured and he's.

[Mike Wright]

Got a tough matchup and no Christian Watson.

[Jason Moore]

Yeah.

[Mike Wright]

Now we put these together independently. We didn't know what the other person was going to pick. I in all of the things on did the Sunday slate. That was the one that I loved too which is the Jordan love less than 227 and a half. And my I'm going to combo that with Bucky. Funny enough we were talking about him at the top. Bucky more than 86 and a half rushing yards which he has done in three of the previous four games.

[Andy Holloway]

That is the Washington matchup there my combination are two sides of the same game. The super bowl bound Los Angeles Chargers. I'm taking.

[Jason Moore]

Oh I can can I can. I guess real quick go ahead because I actually made huge.

[Mike Wright]

I made another huge line.

[Jason Moore]

I made another one of these just on my own just to play and it was fun and it was in the same game and it was Herbert Moore and it was Stroud less.

[Andy Holloway]

You're wrong.

[Mike Wright]

Oh yeah.

[Andy Holloway]

This is McConkey more than five and a half receptions. So he's got to hit six receptions and it is Joe Mixon less than seventy and a half. Receiving or rushing? Rushing.

[Mike Wright]

If receiving is an option, you got to sign me up.

[Andy Holloway]

Rushing yards, the fade of mixing, the inefficiency of the offense, the Houston offense, they're at home. They're not favored.

[Jason Moore]

You felt it firsthand.

[Andy Holloway]

I like I'm feeling a lot right now actually.

[Jason Moore]

You were relying on mixing and Nico.

[Andy Holloway]

I don't think that this game flow is going to lend itself to mix in getting over or more than seven seventy and a half. So I'm going to take less than 70 and a half for mix in on the rushing side and more than five and a half receptions for McConkey. So we will. We're going to shift to the Crowns and clowns for this playoff. Fantasy Face Off. This is the tightest banana I've ever worn, I can tell you that.

[Jason Moore]

A little bit of circulation left.

[Andy Holloway]

Yeah, it's really compressing. While my stomach is singing. That was Fantasy Face off. Presented by DraftKings Sportsbook DraftKings Sportsbook is crowning a king of the end zone every NFL game day.
