1:02Always forward with Kia. My apartment garage in Los Felices was clearly designed by someone who never had to open a car door. That's why my Kia Salto's just fits. With room for work bags, yoga mats, groceries, and whatever I accidentally buy at the Rose Bowl flea market. Small SUV. Real cargo room. I've got turbocharged power and all-wheel drive for the days L.A. decides to be more mountain than city. The all-new Kia Salto says built for the way your life actually moves. Find your way forward at Kia.com. Kia. Movement that inspires. Is the WIP afternoon show with Ike Spike and Fritz? You know, Eagle season is back when Tuesdays with Elliott takes a little bit out of me. We were humming along. Yeah. We were humming along. I feel like- We're almost there. I've wanted to- I feel like he does it at the end of the segment on purpose to see if he can make me late to end the segment. I don't think he goes, you'll be good with Josh John. I think through that one I was like, oh god. Yeah, I just don't know if he could be good with Josh. You came in?

2:04That's what I jumped out of it. Of course, I would be good with Josh. I thought it would be that good, but I have the point stands though. Holy moly, mother of god. We do have a special guest coming up at five o'clock. It is not Elliott. That's one thing I want to tell you. So the question today is what is more likely for the Eagles this season? They miss the playoffs or they go to the Super Bowl. So the ESPN has a computer thing called FBI and what they use to do is they simulate the season, you know, thousands of times to come up with the most likely scenario. And every year they just take one of the scenarios, one of the thousands of scenarios and say exactly what happened. So here is what ESPN's FPS simulation said for one of the scenarios. So do you want the Eagles result first or who they ended up having win the Super Bowl and so on and so forth? What do you want first? Let's go. Who do they have win the Super Bowl? So they have the Lions beating the chargers. 3331 on a walkoff Jake Bates field goal.

3:10They have the number one seed in the NFC, the 49ers at 13 and 4. The AFC number one seed is the bills at 12 and 5. A couple of other things that happen here. The Broncos go seven and 10 and miss the playoffs. The Texans start off six and three and up six and 11. The Bears go six 11 and miss the playoffs and the Jessica to and 15. Here are the Eagles. So the Eagles finish nine and eight as do the Dallas Cowboys. The Cowboys win the NFC East on a tiebreaker and the Eagles miss the playoffs. After 16 weeks, 15 games, the Eagles are seven and eight tied with Dallas and a Giants. The Eagles beat San Francisco 2319 on the road. Then they beat the Giants to get to nine and eight. But the Cowboys beat the commanders in week 18 also getting to nine and eight own the tiebreaker and the Cowboys win the division of Eagles out of the playoffs. Some interesting things there. I think the Lions are a bounce back candidate. The chargers,

4:15it's fun to have faith in the chargers in that the combination of what's his name? Mike Daniel. And uh, but I always get the board. Oh, Justin Herbert is interesting. Of course. 49ers at 13 and four is pretty shocking. The 49ers being the NFC number one. Yeah, I'd be shocked. There you go. A couple of things that they had that I think is possible. It's certainly possible for the Broncos to take a step back. Bo Nix coming off of injury. They won a lot of sort of close games last year and what else? What else? And a Bears, it's 6 and 11 and missing the playoffs. The Bears won a lot of one score games last year. I think it would be surprised if they were 6 and 11. But you know, but that that Eagle scenario, I don't. Yeah, he said this is a computer generated. Yeah. Now what they do is their their rankings every week are based on thousands of simulations. But what they do every year is just pick out one of one of the simulations to tell you what happened. So that's not the most likely scenario for the Eagles, but it is one of the scenarios. Yeah.

5:182155929494 Alex in the Northeast thinks he has what it takes to take over the WRP afternoonshow fantasy football league team that's been ghosted. What's up, Alex? Hey, I don't. What's up, Alex? I just, I'm going to take this team to the chip. Really? The team that drafted Matt Stafford. That's a big B. R. B. one. We're, we're people saying last year that tank was going to take over the Eagles running back. Yeah. Yeah. They were. It's one of those people. We were waiting for it. Yeah. I mean, Elliott's just like, what you do know that he's talking about after time. Look, you do have some tools here, right? The as Max our video guy pointed out before the show, your wide receiver room of Devonte Malik neighbors D. K. Meckoff. That is a solid wide. Yeah. It's not bad. Yeah. Also Romeo Dobbson Cooper Cup on the roster is solid. Cooper Cup is cooked. Well, but, you know, as your fifth or sixth wide receiver, it's not, it's not terrible, right? Yeah. I heard, I heard

6:19I say I have a sleeper and Tyree Kill. He'll be sleeping on my IR spot. I like this guy, actually. And you know, you have Matt Stafford. I wouldn't take him five overall, but it's certainly a solid, you know, and you have the Rams defense, which he did pick in the six rounds. Seems like an overdraft, but that's a great value. Yeah. Let me just say this. Whoever gets this team. Yeah. Week one. Oh, really? You get a week one. Yeah. Well, I would say this, Alex. I'll be waiting if I get it. I think I think overall if Alex is able to maneuver this team into a playoff spot, yeah, you will go down. I'd be shocked to read. I would say this. If, and, and Ike, you're, you're going to have to approve this. Yeah. If whoever takes this team over, gets him in the playoffs, I say they get into the league next year automatic bid. Stamped. Okay. All right. Stamped. Because you're taking over a team on our behalf. Right. And if you actually do a great enough job, you get this team in the playoffs, you deserve a spot next year.

7:19Oh, I'll be active. You want to worry about the lineup being set. I trade to be thrown around. There'll be a lot of action going on. All right. I'm actually a big fan. Hinky fan. Oh, are you? I'm going to get you going. It's as well. He's taken the best, best center available every year. Yes. Well, until you get a good one, it doesn't work now. All right, Alex, you are a registered friend. Make sure you have Alex's info. You, he mentioned trades. Now, I think I told you guys I, I'm not a big fantasy player. But one thing I've noticed in in the afternoon show, like the last two years and the WIP leg the last two years is I don't think I saw any trades. Nope. Do trades and fantasy just not have they didn't I don't think we saw one in a fantasy based building. Do that. Try to trade Mason Miller couldn't do it. Try to trade. P. Crore Armstrong in the first month. Yeah. No one did it. It was early. It was early. But yeah, try and trade me now. Well, yeah, I want to try to now. But to trade you're a bunch of ways to trades not happen anymore. They usually don't only in desperate situations that you're going to need at least two people to be

8:21desperate. And sort of a desperate situation. The problem is especially early, no one wants to give up on the player that they drafted just yet. Yep. And in fantasy trades, I've always felt someone is usually trying to get over on the other guy. Right. So they want something for nothing. Right. Yeah. You want me to give you my Y receiver one. You can try to give me your second tidy and a third running back. Right. Yeah. Like that's and that's why people don't make trades. That's why people don't make trades. But we used to we used to make trades. I do. Last time I played fantasy football was probably it was when I was unemployed uh 15 years ago. Yeah. And we made trades in that. Yeah. We used and he's the last thing is I think we're all afraid we're going to make the other team better. Right. You know what I mean? We're going to regret making that. Yes. There's a little bit of foam. Oh, yeah. I don't want to treat that guy. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So I think that's part of it too.

9:25Even I've gotten to a point I would rather work the waiver wire than make the trade. But I think I made a trade last year. Really? I don't remember one. I think I traded for Drake May in hourly. I think so. I think somebody it was early. Okay. Before before he took off. Okay. I think I think I did. Cause I don't think I drafted Drake, man. I had him before that year was over. You are a waiver wire guy. Well, you know that. Yes. You got to look. If you're an Arleague and you want a guy on waivers, you got to beat out Rod and and I and both of them are what time does the waiver wire because we're three o'clock in the morning. Yeah. Yeah. Well, they both set their alarm. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. With the right finger on the trigger. 2155 not 2.94 94. Oh, the return of time of Hawke Tony. Time of Hawke Tony. You're on WIP. What'd you think of the series time of Hawke Tony? Bike that series was everything I would have hoped it could be. I mean, I predicted the split. You know, that was, you know, well, you were holding the board and you got a road today. Yeah.

10:26Split is a win for the brave. Yeah. Yeah. Well, I mean, you know, you know, one bad pitch from Mazardo yesterday and it's 2 to 1. Wow. That was one good pitch. I'm Alex McFarlane and it's 3 1. Yeah. Well, he threw a 7 of them. He threw 7 good pitches. Just one bad one. Yeah. That was exciting. That was the one I was that with my daddy and, you know, we tried to keep it under control. You know, everybody was very, very hospitable to us. You know, we had our brave gear on, but, you know, I tried to behave myself. Yeah. It was. Yeah. How do you know? You didn't glow like, you didn't glow like your boy was gloting around the bases. Did you? No, no, no, no, no, because I didn't want to get drilled. I couldn't believe. I couldn't believe Wheeler didn't. He had a chance to hit him. I think it was like the fifth inning. Maybe 2 on. Yeah. That's not what you're doing. Yeah. He's nobody's nobody on 2 out. And he did strike him out. I believe, but that that wasn't I think they're up by 3 at that point. And that would that would have been the opportunity. But, uh, yeah, we don't we don't need Ronald getting hit by any pitches. Uh,

11:31going down the stretch. So he started, he started to kind of come around a little bit. So. Yeah. Yes. And that's not a great year. Akunya's not a great year.

14:00Go ahead. Do you feel like let's say that the Phillies played the Braves in the playoffs? Seven games. That's where I'm going with this. They're on a collision course. They're on a collision course. I mean, the only way they can meet, you know, if things kind of stay the way they are is in the NLCS and that would be, you know, so great on so many levels, it affords me an opportunity to go to a game and, you know, it's, you know, as I've said, countless times. It is the best rival we're going right now in the MLB and it was this was, this was the best series of the season, you know, obviously I'm biased, you know, my team was in it and, you know, I watch as many Phillies games as I watch Braves games, you know, they're always on and they're a very entertaining team. Not just Padre series gets a little heated. Yes. Yeah. There's, there's some. Yeah. Well, Tom Hocktony, let me say this. If you were to go a playoff series with the Phillies, would you be nervous as a Braves fan or confident?

15:02I'd be nervous against any team, but, you know, the familiarity with them, you know, I would be confident, but, you know, certainly, certainly a little wary, you know, and I mean, because, I mean, you know, the, I was surprised there wasn't one blowout game, you know, they're all close. Yeah, they were all very close and I was going to say blow on what side with me. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You blow your whole lose. I think Phillies have the, have the edge in the, in the starting rotation, especially if Aaron Nolis shows up like, like he has lately, you know, they definitely have the edge of the rotation. So, you know, certainly I was looking for a nine two game, you know, probably that Wheeler game would have been that would have been the potential blowout. And, you know, they, they, they helped it, they held it pretty comfortably. So Tom Hocktoni, you want to take over this fantasy football league team that Philly Ray abandoned. Why should we let you in the league? Why should you let me in league? Because, I think, I think that his roster is better than the, the one that I chose for, for the other league

16:08that I'm in. Wow. Wow. Well, looks like we got to do that for me, but it's still available. I'm in 100% spike. I'm, I'm, I'm down for it. I got, I got a GM lined up in everything. Oh, so you're not going to be the GM? Are you just going to be the owner? You're going to have a separate general manager. Yeah. Is that all right? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I'm 100% in, I'm 100% in. All right. Well, you're, I can't believe nobody, nobody, nobody, nobody, nobody, nobody. Wow. A lot of people have said they were on it. Yeah. Yeah. You're in the run. Yeah. You're in the, you're in the, Tom Hocktony's in the right slow down, slow down. Tom Hocktony, man. I can't believe he might, I don't want to be in here. Yeah. Relax. Relax. You got a line waiting on Tom Hock. So yesterday's Philly's game was, he's been about steak when I see Tom Hocktony. Oh, that, that it's about, yeah. It's about the braise. So yesterday was a nerve wracking game generally because you're just hoping that,

17:10that they get a run at some point. And when, when Lizardo came back out in the ninth after shorter hit the home run, I'm glad that Mattingley sent him out there. But I'd be lying if I didn't say, I was a little nervous. Oh, boy. Yeah. But the thing that made me the most nervous was in the bottom of the eighth when Jose Alvarado was warming up. Now, I don't know, Mattingley was trying to play mind games with the braise because, you know, whether they should pinch hit somebody or not, but honestly, if seeing Jose Alvarado in a zero, zero game against the braise, Alvarado or Kirkering, you're nervous. Both of us. Yes. And I saw somewhere that they're working on trying to get, so tenor banks is rehabbing. You know, he injures himself earlier. They're trying to get tenor banks stretched out a little bit so he could be the long guy in the playoffs. Okay. Tenor banks. Jack has never been a big tenor banks guy. But I think we all agreed last year. So local guy, bishops, abuse this. Did tenor banks go to bishops? I think so. Then we have them on. We

18:11interview. No, you know, you're thinking of Tyler Phillips. That's what I said. Tyler Phillips. Yeah, yeah. You're thinking of Tyler Phillips. Curry Marlin. Yeah. Pretty good. Tyler Phillips now made a big league pitcher. I thought I had that with nailed man. Yeah. Tenor banks from Utah. Yeah. Yeah. Riverton, Utah. Yeah. Well, tenor banks got the mustache, the high socks, all that stuff. But I thought he showed some sowns last year. I wouldn't mind having tenor banks is I'd feel better about tenor banks than having a lot of them. I take him considering where the bullpen is. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. But they need the need. Well, and I feel like we've barely seen Brooks Rayleigh. And I don't know why. Well, the last time we seen him, it was not good, right? I don't even remember. There's been really a few times. He's been generally okay. Yeah. Numbers good this year. Yeah. You know, well, you figured they, I mean, they traded for him. You need guys for high leverage. Yes. And we're never, we're never getting the other guy back, right? Cody or Corey or whatever the hell is it that they traded for him? Kill him. Kill him. Kill him. I think they're supposed to get him back. Definitely. Maybe by the end of the season. Okay. I think maybe because he, the porn oblique or something.

19:13Yeah. All right. Two on five, five, nine, two, ninety, four, ninety four. We got a few applications to take on Philly Ray's fantasy football league team. What happened was we, we stacked our league. We had the draft Friday night at chickies. It took seven and a half hours. It was a surprise for everyone when they drafted. Let me, let me paint this picture. And you know, and Philly Ray has ghosted us since the draft because I think he was embarrassed about his team. He did take Matt Saford, fifth overall. He took, Montey in the second round, it took Dallas Goddard in the fourth round and then took another quarter back in the fifth round, Jared Goff. Took the Rams defense in the sixth round. Only has one running back on the team, Tang Tigsby. The thing that infuriated me about the draft. So I want to paint this picture. And Chicky's so great, Cara of us. And I actually, the, uh, the weight staff force at chickies was amazing. Shout out to them. Yeah, they were absolutely great. Uh, so we're, it's kind of a darker room in the back. We had the Philly's game on and we have this board upfront. We're not drafting

20:13electronically. So when a play, when somebody takes a player, you're in this dark room and it's a, a board with small print all the way up at the front. Yeah. And all I wanted because I had my computer in front of me, I was marking guys off as they got drafted. One to help me draft. Two to make the process go quicker. So when I go up there, I don't have to ask if a guy is still available. I was a lot of that going on. All I asked was when you draft a player, please loudly announce who you've drafted so I could write them down of the 250 players drafted. I would say 20 times the name was announced. Yeah. 16 of them by Ike. Yeah, I would say yeah. Nobody. I love our listeners that are in the league. I am sure three quarters of them thought I was the biggest. No, you were good. Well, I was screaming. I know so far. I actually appreciated that. I was getting an Ed from Phoenixville's ass because he was taken forever because he had the 12th

21:17pick. So he would have two in a row. He would make his first pick and then go back walk all the way over to his paper. Who else? Like it's a surprise. He had two straight picks. What are people doing? The only one who Marcus? The guy who won the league last year. Marcus knew what he was doing. Yeah. Yeah. All right. But he also started to draft off with a trade. Oh, right. He traded the first two for all. Yeah. No, no, he he wanted the he had the fourth pick. I had the six pick. He wanted the six rather than the fourth. I know why. Less pressure, maybe. Oh, you took B. John, right? No, I took a Jammar. Okay. All right. Yeah. Two on five five. Not two. One. And in sweet baby right? Yes. Here's another beauty pick. He took Jaden Niggins who tore his ACL practice. All right. Texas. Now, I thought he had taken Josh Jacobs too, but he didn't somebody else did. Tours ACL. Antireke. Antireke who's not in the lake.

22:20All right. Two one five five that two 90. And you got a lot to work with whoever gets this team. Yes. The hinky of the WIP after New Show fans football league.
