Hour 3: ESPN Simulation Does Not Favor Eagles

0:00It is the WIP afternoon show with Ike Spike and Fritz. You know, Eagle season is back when Tuesday's 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'm going to do it. 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. So I don't think the Eagles would be good job, Sean. I think through that one and I was like, oh God. Yeah, I was just, I don't know. You can project a ball. You kidding me? Yeah, that's when I jumped out of it. I mean, they would of course they would be good with Josh Allen. I mean, I bring him 37 and 33. That wouldn't be that good. But I have the point stands though. So, Moli, Moli, 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.

1:00So the ESPN has a computer thing called FPI and what they use to do is they simulate the season, 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 FPI 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. Let's go who they have won the Super Bowl. So they have the Lions beating the chargers. 33, 31 on a walkoff Jake Bates field goal. They 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.

2:05The Bears go six 11 and miss the playoffs and the Jets go two and 15. Here are the Eagles. So the Eagles finish 98 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 the Giants. The Eagles beat San Francisco 2319 on the road then they beat the Giants to get to 98. But the Cowboys beat the commanders in week 18 also getting to 98 own the tiebreaker and the Cowboys win the division and the Eagles out of the playoffs. Some interesting things there. I think the Lions are a bounce back candidate. The Chargers, it's fun to have faith in the Chargers in that the combination of what's his name? Mike McDaniel and Harboh. But I always get that. Is it about the quarterback or Justin Herbert? Oh, Justin Herbert is interesting, of course.

3:0749ers at 13 and four is pretty shocking. The 49ers being the NFC number one seed would be shocking. Yeah, I'd be shocked there, yeah. 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 Nex coming off of injury, they won a lot of sort of close games last year and what else? What else? And the Bears, it's six 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 six 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 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 that. This is one of them, yeah. 215-592-94-94. Alex in the Northeast thinks he has what it takes to take over the WRP after-noonshow fantasy football league team that's been ghosted. What's up, Alex?

4:07Hey, how you doing? What's up, Alex? I just, I'm gonna take this, team to the ship. Really? The team that drafted Matt Stafford number one? That can't be, RB1. We're, we're, we're, we're people saying last year that Tank was gonna take over the Eagles running back. Yeah, yeah, they were. Alex, one of those people. We're waiting, we're waiting for it. Yeah, I mean, Elliott's just like, what you do, he even knows what 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, DK McF. That is a solid wide receiver. That's not bad. Yeah, that's not bad. Also Romeo, Dobbs and 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 a, I say I have a sleeper in Tyree Kill. He'll be sleeping on my IR spot for all season. I like this guy, actually. And you, you know, you have Matt Stafford.

5:08I 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 sixth round seems like an overdraft, but that's a great value. Yeah. I mean, just saying is whoever gets this team. Yeah, weak one. Oh, really? You get a weak one. Yeah. Well, I would say this, Alex. It's easy when if I get it. I think, I think overall, if Alex is able to maneuver this team into a playoff spot, you will go down in the, I'd be sure to. I would say this. If, if, and, and Ike, you're, you're going to have to approve this. Yeah. If whoever takes this team over, gets him into 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 into playoffs, you deserve a spot next year. Oh, I'll, I'll be active. You want to worry about the line up being set. I'll trade you from around. There'll be a lot of action going on. All right. I'm actually a big fan, Hinky fan.

6:09Oh, are you? I'm not. I'm going to go to your points as well. I'll be taking the best, best center available every year. Yes. Well, until you get a good one, it ended up working out. All right, Alex, you are a registered friend. Make sure you have Alex's info. You, he mentioned trades. Now, I, I think I told you guys, I, I'm, I'm not a big fantasy player. But one thing I've noticed in, in the afternoon show, League, 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 our fantasy base, only do that. Try to trade me some Miller couldn't do it. Try to trade. Peacrow Armstrong in the first month. Yeah. No one did it. It was early. It was early. But yeah, try trading now. Well, yeah, I want to try to now. But to trade, you're in a bunch of ways. Yeah. Do trades not happen anymore? Or they usually don't only in desperate situations that you're going to need, at least two people to be in sort of a desperate situation. The problem is, especially early, no one wants to give up on the player that they

7:11drafted just yet. Yeah. 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 to win the trade? You want me to give you my Y receiver one. You're trying to give me your second tidy and your 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 15 years ago. Yeah. And we made trades in that. Yeah, we used to. And the last thing is, no, I think we're all afraid we're going to make the other team better. Right. You know what I mean? Like, so we're going to regret making that trade. Yes. There's a little bit of foam off. Yes. I don't want to treat that guy. You know, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So I think that's part of it too. Even I've gotten to a point I would rather work the waiver wire than making a trade.

8:12But 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 Ike and both of them are what time does the waiver wire? Cause we're three o'clock in the morning. Yeah. Well, they both set their alarm. I'll be there waiting. Yeah. He's right. Yeah. Yeah. Finger on the trigger. 2155929494. Oh, the return of Tomahawk Tony. Tomahawk Tony, you're on WIP. What'd you think of the series, Tomahawk Tony? Like 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 hoping for a spin. You got a road today. Yeah. Split is a win for the brave.

9:13Yeah. Yeah. Well, I mean, you know, you know, one bad pitch from Lazardo yesterday and it's 2 to 1. Wow. That was not a good pitch. It's Matt, let's make Farlin and it's 3 1. Yeah. That was, he threw a 7 of them. He threw 7 good pitches. Just one bad one. Yeah. That was, that was exciting. That was the one I was that with my daddy and, you know, we tried it. 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 right. You didn't float like you didn't float like your boy was gloting around the bases. Did you? No, no, no, definitely not 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, too long. That's not what you're doing. Yeah. Police don't do it. Nobody, nobody on, too out. And he did strike him out. I believe, but that, that, I think they're up by 3 at that point. And that would, that would have been the opportunity.

10:14But, yeah, we don't, we don't, we don't, you Ronald, get hit by any pitches going down the stretch. So he started, he started to kind of come around a little bit. So, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Great ear. Akunya's not had a great ear, a little bit of injury and then performance wise hasn't had a great ear. And we'll drain you. But you know, you know, you know, it gets, uh, no, no, I don't think so. Maybe we'll see. We'll see. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's what I'm saying. You can't series coming up now too. Like that. Yeah. We do, we do have a big weekend series coming up. So that's exciting and go ahead. Well, do you feel like, let's say the Philly's played the Braves in the playoffs. Seven games. That's where I'm going with this. Okay. And 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, uh, you know, it's, it's, you know,

11:16as I've said countless times, it is the best rivalry going right now in the MLB. And, uh, 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, uh, you know, I watch as many Philly's games as I watch Braves games. You know, they're always on and they're a very entertaining team. And not just pod race series gets a little heated. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Well, Tom Hocktony, let me say this. If you were to go into a playoff series with the Philly's, would you be nervous as a Braves fan or confident? I'd be nervous against any team. Oh, okay. But, uh, you know, the familiarity with them, you know, I would be confident, but, you know, certainly, uh, 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. Usually, yeah, they were all very close and, uh, I was going to say blowout on what side with a man. Yeah.

12:16Yeah. Certainly have the, have the edge in the, in the starting rotation, especially if, uh, Aaron Nolis shows up like, like he has lately. Um, you know, they definitely had the edge of the rotation. So, you know, certainly I was looking for a nine two game, uh, you know, probably that Wheeler game would have been that would have been the potential blowout. And, uh, you know, they, they, they, they helped it, they held it pretty comfortably. So Tom Hocktony, you want to take over this, uh, fantasy football league team that Philly Ray abandoned. Why should we let you in the lake? Why should you let me in league? Because, uh, I think, I think that his roster is better than the, um, the one that I chose for, for the other league that I'm in. Wow. Wow. Wow. Well, it looks like we got a lot of, it's a great for me, but it's still, it's still available. I'm, I'm in 100% spike. I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm down for it. I got, I got a GM lined up and 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, have a separate general manager.

13:17Yeah. Is that all right? Bubbles. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I'm 100% in 100% in. All right. Well, you're, you're, I can't believe nobody said, nobody, nobody, nobody, nobody, nobody, wow. A lot of people have said they were on it. Yeah. Yeah. You're in the run. You're in the run. Tom Hocktony's in the right. Slow down. Slow down. Tom Hocktony. I'm sorry. I can't believe anybody doesn't want to be in here. Relax. Relax. You're lying. I'm waiting on it Tom Hock. So yesterday's Phillies game was he bent about steak when I see Tom Hocktony. Oh, they, that's about it. Yeah. Now,cier. It's about to brace. Yeah. So yesterday was a nerve racking game, generally, because you're just hoping that, that they get a run at someone. And when, when, when Lazzardo came back out in the night, after, shorebur, hit the home I'm glad that Mattingley sent him out there, but I'd be lying if I didn't say, I was a little nervous. Yeah. But the thing that made me the most nervous

14:17was in the bottom of the eighth when Jose Alvarado was warming up. Now, I don't know if Mattingley was trying to play mind games with the braves because, you know, whether they should pinch hit somebody or not, but honestly, if seeing Jose Alvarado in a zero, zero game against the braves. 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 injured 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, logo guy, Bishabuses. Did Tenor Banks go to Bishabuses? I think so. Then we have them on, we interviewed him. No. No, you're thinking of Tyler Phillips. That's what I said. Tyler Phillips. Yeah, yeah, you're thinking of Tyler Phillips. Kirk and Marlon. Yeah. But pretty good. Tyler Phillips is now a big league pitcher. Oh, I thought I had that with Nail, man.

15:18Yeah, 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 stones last year. I wouldn't mind having Tenor Banks. I'd feel better about Tenor Banks than I thought. Yeah, I'd take him considering where the bullpen is. Yeah. You know? Yeah. 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 like, okay. Yeah, numbers good this year. Yeah. Yeah. Well, you figured they, I mean, they traded for him. You need guys for high leverage. Yes. And we're never getting the other guy back, right? Cody or Tyler? Tyler? Or whatever the hell is it that they traded for? Oh, kill him. Kill him. I think they're supposed to get him back. Definitely. Maybe by the end of the season. Okay. Maybe the porn oblique or something. Yeah. All right. 2-1-5-592-94-94. We got a few applications to take on Philly Ray's fantasy football league team. What happened was we stacked our league.

16:21We had the draft Friday night at Chickies. It took seven and a half hours. Now, it was a surprise for everyone when they drafted. Then let me paint this picture. And you know, Philly Ray has ghosted us since the draft because I think he was embarrassed about his team. He did take Matt Stafford fifth overall. He took Devonte in the second round. It took Dallas-Gauder 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 Bigsby. The thing that infuriated me about the draft. So I want to paint this picture. And Chickies took great care of us. And I actually, the weight staff far as to Chickies was amazing. Shout out to them. Yeah, they were absolutely great. So it's kind of a darker room in the back. We had the Philly's game on and we have this board up front. We're not drafting electronically. So when somebody takes a player, you're in this dark room and it's a board with small print all the way up at the front. And all I wanted because I had my computer in front of me, I was marking guys off as they

17:23got 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. There's 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. And I love the our listeners that are in the league. I am sure three quarters of them thought I was the biggest. J.O. No, you were good. Well, I was screaming. Yeah, I know. I was the player. I actually appreciated that. I was getting on Ed from Phoenixville's ass because he was taken forever because he had the twelfth pick. 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?

18:25Like it's a surprise. He had two straight picks. What are you people doing? The only one who Marcus, the guy won the league last year. Marcus knew what he was doing. Yeah, all right. But he also started to draft off with a trade. Oh, right. Trade in the first two. Yes. No, no, he wanted to 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 jam. Oh, okay. All right. I got one five five nine two. And in sweet baby right. Yes. Here's another beauty pick. Okay. He took Jaden Higgins who tore his ACL in practice. All right. Texas. Now, I thought he had taken Josh Jacobs too, but he didn't. Somebody else did. Tours ACL. Anti-regale. Anti-regale who's not in the lake. All right. Two one five five nine two ninety five. And you got a lot to work with whoever gets to see you. Yes.

19:26Well, I feel he loved the WIP after you shown dancing to can all football with the super boost. I'm talking Patriots, Seahawks. One game and all you need is one point. Here's hard works. Opt in and use your token on Patriots versus Seahawks with the kickoff super boost. Then once you, once either team puts the first point on the board, you can win up to $25 guaranteed. That's right, a touchdown, a field goal, even a safety. Patriot score, you win, Seahawks score, you win. All it takes is the first point in the game.

20:26So make your pick, turn on NFL kickoff, and get ready for the season to officially begin. Because when the Patriots or Seahawks score, so do you. Check out the kickoff super boost on Fandall. Head over to your app store and download the Fandall app today or visit fandall.com to get started. Fandall Sportsbook is the official sportsbook of 94WIP. Here we go. Hey now, your ball star. Makes me sick. So WIP after I'm showing likes by Confircts, that is your 43090s. This is the kind of song that Jack would pick to make me mad. I have one very specific memory of this song. It is when I was working for WISP very early on. And we were doing a live broadcast from the, I don't even know what the amphitheater in Camden is called anymore, but whatever it was, from a Metallica concert, which is a heavy metal concert. And we're broadcasting there. And we're in the little atrium or whatever, playing the radio station over the speakers. And that song comes on.

21:27And I'll never forget two Metallica fans screaming at us what P words we were for playing this song. Just letting us have it. Just that we were right. The Twitter question is brought to by Mark Stuller's football is back and people are talking about another ring, get the diamond engagement ring of her dreams at Mark's Toulers. Minutes from everywhere. Do you like the renderings of the new Sixers Flyers arena and 75% say yes. Oh yeah. Certainly cool looking from the outside. Yeah. And then what matters most is when you get in there or the sight lines good, do you feel like you're in a new cool place? And I think some of the arenas, this was one of the good things about that. Got good food in there, good food. Some of the arenas now almost feel too big that you're like far away. I think one of the cool things about the spectrum was it went more up than it went out. So if you were higher up, you still felt like you were close. It felt like everybody was close in as opposed to far away.

22:29I think Chicago Stadium you said feel that way as well where the Bulls play at Chicago State. I've never been to Chicago State. But I think that was the design of that era of arena. So I'm sure the plenty of luxury suites and if you the renderings mean anything, there won't be anybody with Jo Ellen Beegers. Oh God. 215, 5.2, 9.2, 9.2. I bet you did one of those four-headed slabs like, oh God. Yeah. Some of the herders talking about it. Put out another one. Ed and Phoenixville, your on W.R.B. Hey Ed. Hey, Spikes, Arda and convenience here at the draft. I was trying to decide between Casey, Conceptio and freaking Tyler's job. I mean, for goodness sake. I mean, it was not the time it took. It was the walk back to your papers in between consecutive picks. Like you had made the pick and everybody goes, hey Ed, you got another one. So I forgot for the 16th consecutive round.

23:31I knew that and I didn't spend as long as some others did. But you know, I appreciate you I for being the sounding board. I wasn't as loud as I could have been. So, but now all that said, it was a fun night looking forward to, and with my life, whoever in here, it raised team may win the whole freaking thing. But you know, well, I guess that's why we got seven. That would be mine. That would be all of our luck there. What a Cinderella story. That will be if somebody takes over that team and wins the chip. Look, there is a possibility that Stafford puts in another MVP type season. Malik neighbor stays healthy. Devante Smith really is a number one wide receiver. The Rams defense is a good as that. I don't know. He certainly got some talent on the team. Yeah. Only has one running back in its tank. Big deep. And he took three injured players and probably well played this year. Yes. But you know what? The details details. Go ahead. Well, well, fight here point about the touchdown interception

24:32argument, which I actually really like. And yeah, just I couldn't like I was going to talk about something else and Elliott went just went on his Josh Allen nonsense, which has to go on the Mount Rushmore all time bad Elliott. Hey, oh yeah. But here's the thing. I actually went into the numbers. So turn over machine Josh Allen, right? Or according to Elliott, he's averaged about 3.8 fumbles per season to jail in 3.6. So pretty very, very close there. Yeah. They both also have similar touchdown interception ratios around 2.3 to 2.4. Yeah. But to your point spike and I think this is where Josh Allen 10 times out of 10, you take Josh Allen. Why? He's thrown 127 more touchdowns than interceptions to jail in 65. So the nominal touchdown difference is important. Like yes. It's a risk adjusted word kind of thing. And that's where I think your argument has the most weight is you have to point win games, wins don't win games.

25:34There's reason why I won't get into why that argument doesn't work. But if you have the same touchdown interception ratio, but you throw more touchdowns, you score more points to win more games. Yeah. Honestly, honestly, it's like it makes me sound worse about Jalen when he brings up the Josh Allen thing. I think we can put Josh Allen to the side in any jailing conversation. Same the Eagles wouldn't want to super bowl with Josh Allen because he's turnover prone. As he's just, he's not turnover prone. Actually, he protects the ball pretty well. And as you said, he generates a lot of points. I don't, the Josh Allen is one guy who from a weapon stamp. He's got a good running back there. But what he is tasked with, I think, is, and what he's been able, I don't think he's missed a start in eight years or something like that. The, he physically, I think, has been very impressive as well. When you watch those games, those aren't easy runs usually.

26:35Sure. He's a big, strong dude. Yeah. And some of that's just physically he is, he is pretty impressive. Well, you know the one thing it does say though. What? He needs just as much help as to see the Jalen needs to win. It's funny. Well, I don't know how that is. Well, that's, I mean, hold on, hold on, hold on, real quick. That's the only thing that you could take away from that. And I'll say that with any quarterback that would have to come here or we think that could come here and win, that hasn't won somewhere else, that would essentially say they need the same help that Jalen needs. Well, it doesn't make Jalen better than physically, but it does say that they still need help. He needs help. Yeah, for sure. Yeah. But, and I, people hate when you do this. I think if they switch spots, Buffalo wouldn't be nearly as good as Buffalo's been with Josh Allen. And I think the Eagles would be just as good, probably better. But, but yes, I mean, he has not had great weapons.

27:37I think is deep. Now, he has turned the ball over in a couple of spots in the playoffs. I think he wishes he had back. Certainly in the first half of that AFC championship get you me last year, he was a disaster. Yeah. But I think like overall, it's, just to go back to Elliot's original point, it's insane. Yeah, it is insane. It's insane. Cause they wouldn't win if Josh Allen was here. Yes, yes. Yeah, I mean, ultimately, yeah. Yes. It's a, it's crazy. It's the crazy thing to say. All right, Ed. Well, good job at the draft on it. Ed, even though you took a really long time. It's a really, really long time. Well, go ahead. Did you have something? You know what takes a long time? Medical malpractice suits. They take a long time. That is why you need somebody focused. You need somebody who's good at it. You need somebody who's detail oriented. You need a place that is fighting for you. Corn bloula. Adam Corn bloula, Corn bloula fight for you. When you have, when you, even the question is, a lot of times when someone goes wrong,

28:38you know, the procedure or diagnosis or whatever, you actually don't know if you've been wrong, right? That is the answer that you're trying to get. And that is the answer that Corn bloula will get if you are in that situation and you give them a call. Well, maybe the answer is this wasn't preventable, but if it is, you want nobody else in your corner other than Corn bloula, an excellent legal team, an excellent staff of medical experts right there at Corn bloula, and a staff of people who will get you answers. If you're in that situation, unfortunately, I hope you never are, but if you are, go to Corn bloula.com, K-O-R-N-B-L-A-U, corn bloula.com. Corn bloula, we're medicine and law meat. Jack, is it Newark or Newark? You're on WIP, what's up Jack? And Newark Delaware. Okay, what's up Jack, you want to be in the leg? I do. I associate athletic director for analytics down at the University of Delaware and also teach a class on sport analytics. So when I heard there's an opportunity

29:40to try to validate the process, represent Stan Hanky and finish what he didn't get the chance to finish, wanted to put my name in the hat. Wow, so you're an analytics guy, is that for sports or just for analytics in general for the university? I oversee business analytics, sport analytics and sports science. Wow, that is, he might be too smart for the whole day. We don't want anybody actually. When I fall to roster, when I fall to roster, I don't think so. It'll be a good challenge, but the blue ends have been a Cinderella story. We were the first year in the FDS last year and won a bowl game. Okay, and I think the only way to try to top that is take over this team and see if we can get them to the playoffs or win the championship. Yeah, this team needs help. Now they do have talent. They do have players on there now. They may have been overdraft it. Yes, it's certain areas, but there is talent on the problem.

30:41Yeah, I think his first five picks were okay. They may not have gone in the order they should have gone in. What would he do? God in the fourth round is. Oh, he took God in the fourth round. And Devante, no offense to Devante, but second round for Devante is an overtraft. Oh my goodness. Yeah. I don't know what the hell Ray was doing man. And then, follow up, Stafford, when you, so my positional quarterbacks and Ed Jack, actually, I wonder what you think of this. I always draft quarterbacks a little too high because I want a good one and I want one that I can depend on. Yeah. But then that forces me, I believe, to draft a second quarterback, maybe a little too high, because my first quarterback is more highly leveraged and is more important. Is that a good strategy or a bad strategy? That sounds defensible. I can't be given out too much strategy. At the both time, I might handle that slot if I have an opportunity. The draft is overweight.

31:42Yeah. Yeah. You already have the team. This ties back to how you're going to manage the waiver wire and think about those things and that's where I'm going to have to make a ground. All right, Jack. Well, you're registered. I like the idea of a super smart guy bin, but also, now we have our, we have our league draft tonight. Our station draft. I'm in a position where I could potentially end up with the same player in all three of my fantasy football league drafts. Your top, your top number one pick. Now, which you would, you have the second pick in the WIP. And are you going to take them? Wouldn't be smart to head your bet and not take them. That's what I'm saying. Yeah, that's what I'm saying, right? You can't have the same guy, the same player in all three drafts. Now, that guy helped lead me to a championship. Yeah, he's too good to pass on. He, he really, and you know they're going to throw the ball. Yeah. When are you going to do? I hate, can I be honest? I hate the WIP. I hate it.

32:42I don't want to play it. Rod forces me to, it's not on my contract. I would love him to force me to, next year I might not play, unless I win the league. I'm not playing it next year. No, you are. I hate it. I hate it. I hate it. Tell us why. I just, I hate it. You're never new chose. You got to do it. But why? I think I'd be a good coworker. I am a good coworker. I finally joined the baseball league. You did, but you're so thrilled about that because you're going to run. And I might mention. I made the playoffs. You made me the playoffs. I made the playoffs worth noting. Jack Fritz, our baseball expert, baseball expert, his fantasy baseball team collapsed in a second half. And he did not make the playoffs. He didn't. Lincoln limped into the playoffs. I got screwed out of a buy because I'm in the wrong division, even though the second best team I should get a buy. Jillio is sitting there with my, but but Ike battles back from one of the worst starts ever.

33:43What were you two in 18 and the first two week? Yeah, battles back. Bad friend, are you in that lake? Are you in the baseball league? Are you in a, no, no, no. Okay. It's not smart enough. Well, well, I guess it needs strings. Well, he should get Vani spot. Vani didn't even never set it. Vani, yeah, seriously. Yeah. I'm in the John Johnson, Faisley Football League. Yeah. Yeah. He asked me to always like sure. Over nighters. Yeah. Now is that with listeners? Yeah, listeners, producers, Jack Millers in it. Okay. Vani's in it. Okay. All of this. I'm not easy. Yes. Is Vani going to show up? She's not going to show up. She auto drafted for the draft. What's that? She auto drafted the entire draft. So I do. Okay. Can I say? Yeah, go ahead. I think auto draft is legal if you set your own priority. So I know what you say. Yeah. So for our, for our draft tonight, I went in and entered my entire list of your, of my, my, I'm breaking up layers.

34:43Yes. So I am, dude, I got a dog issue at home. I'm just saying. If I can be there for it, I will be there for it. But I've set my, my priority. Yeah. Now can you interrupt it? I can. Oh, okay. Yeah. Yeah. I'll just go in at one of the times of draft seven. I'll go in at six, set it on auto with my priorities. And then if we're done in time, I'll come in only. I mean, I may like your draft this way. You're not near me this year. I hate when we draft right next to you. Yeah. Yeah. I don't need smart guys yet. I'm not taking players that I want in. Right. Yeah. You and Rod. Yeah. You guys, I need, I want you six fifth. We get fifth or six. I am six. Okay. That's for. Yeah. That's for another. Yeah. Two on five, five, nine, two, nine, nine, nine, nine, four. Christian and Philly, your NW IP. Hey, Christian. Hello. Hi guys. Any who? Can you hear me? Any news? I would like to say, okay, with this playoffs issue, right?

35:47First in 2021, right? That's when Jenna first started, right? That's his first start in here as a franchise clear back. He only had, um, Jen and Rager and divine basement. He went to the playoffs. He lost that playoff. Let me tell you why because it was time. Brady that you played and no new quarterback was going to be Tom Brady because that your time. Brady was eating everybody alive. So that's almost that. 2023. 2023. The monetization is more with his name. They did ground plate in the playoffs. Yeah. Okay. And his hand, his throwing hand was broken. And he still played. So that's why he lost. 2025. They brought a sabotage point. Fire team the whole time, the whole season. And he sabotaged that playoff game. Therefore, that's why they love him. Have they ever lost the game when it was Jaylin's. Let me finish. No, no, they have not.

36:48They've never lost a game. That's Jaylin's fault. Never. Not in five years. He played Tom Brady. So no, he played Tom Brady. So he was not. I don't even think. Well, Nick Foles beat Tom Brady. When they get Nick Foles beat Tom Brady. He's a backup like that. And that was Nick Foles. That was Nick Foles. And that was Dennis first ever playing. That was Jim is first ever playing a whole year and quarterback. He lost a big. Okay. So yeah, that was his first year. He lost a baker because he had a broken hand. And he's true. I think he only, which is called backup for wide receivers. Because neither wide wide receivers were there. Today were hurt. They were hurt in the last game. And guess what? He got hurt in the last game too. He got hurt in the finale. I think he was a giant. I think he was so. I think he was. I think he was. I think he was. Nobody. All three of them got hurt. I think he was third and the league in turn over in 2023.

37:48I think he was third and the league in turn over in 2023. Like I said, like I said, I'm not talking about the turnovers. Because he still made it to the playoffs. Okay. When his two best went down, he played on a broken hand. Okay. His hand was throwing him was broken. Oh, they should put him in the hall famed for that. Yes, his throwing hand was broken. Okay. So that's why they lost. All right. And he only had, but backup wide receivers. But anyways, okay. Yeah. He's gone to the Super Bowl this year. Okay. He's going to win the Super Bowl. Okay. It's going to be him and Josh Allen. And if he does, I won't be. I could tell you that. Because he's gone away. He's going to win. So yes, it's going to be his fault for winning. Okay. He won last time with his father winning. Okay. And he's going to make the ball and repeat for the second time. Yeah. Okay. And Josh Allen going to be crying again this year. He's going to lose that Super Bowl to Gina Hertz. Okay. So there you go. It's a good prediction. I like it.

38:49It's good. I like it. I like it. That's what's going to happen. Yes. The good news, Christian is that if it doesn't happen, it won't be Jaylen's fault. I just asked if they have ever lost the game and that was his fault. Any answer was no. Not one time. She's consistent. So, Fran, we do have a special guest coming up at five. We will do a top five five anyway. We won't do it when the special guest is here. Sure. Because this is a very special guest. It's very, very important. I'm down to boring with your nonsense. Yeah. Very important. Right. But I can't risk it with you because you are at the moment on the top. I get it. I haven't, I haven't gained your trust enough. I get it. Look, I, to be clear, I would only trust Jack. I might not even trust Jack with, with the special guest in the room. But when we do get to the top five, what do we have in store? So the top five biggest afternoon show rivalry. So a rivalry is involving the afternoon show. Kind of looks a good idea.

39:49Yeah. So I thought, that's why I want to get it in after hopefully, you know, you know, Robas, you've been, you've been last few times you've produced. You've done a very good job. Yeah. You've done a very good job today. I haven't asked a lot of you, but you've done a very good job. I'm ready. So the top five, five or even evolving the afternoon show. Okay. But we do have a very special guest coming up next. I believe it's going to be next when we tell you the very special guest coming up. Sometimes that person doesn't always come in at the time that we say. I'm already saying. Oh, really? He's here. Okay. So you know, it's a guy. Yeah. That's one thing. You know, it's a guy. All right. 2.5, 5.9, 2.94, 94. We'll also take any final entries to take on Philly, raise WIP afternoon show fantasy football league team.
