Yes, indeed it is. 12.38. Lunchtime with the invasion rolls along. It is time to have our picks with friends segment. We are actually picking games this week we had. The game yesterday was Davey. Actually takes a 1-0 lead. Everyone else had Seattle. Davey had New England. The line was three and a half. Davey is in first place after week zero of picks with friends. Let's gather off from him since myself is Matt McClan. We have David Mino. Hello, hello friends. We have Commissioner Bob Sturm. Greetings, welcome. We have Corby Davidson. Hello. Dave Lane. Good afternoon. And the moose. Oh yeah. What a cool friend. Yes. So, we do have our punishment already settled as far as the broadcasting from the start of
your show to the end of your show the next day. 7pm to 6am all by yourself as you are navigating through the entire evening broadcasting at a hot level. Then after your show the next day you are allowed to go home. That is the punishment. Let's talk about the rules on picks with friends. We pick the cowboy game and your wild card game on the air. The cowboys are favorite on the road in New York by two and a half points. And of course we will need your triple play. You cannot duplicate triple plays. You can fade all you want. Everyone you still have the list of all the games we need to pick. Oh yeah. Everyone's good. Hmm. Oh, okay. Let's start with Dave Lane since he is 1 and 0. We'll start with Dave Lane. Give us your cowboy pick and your triple play. Davey, go.
Well, this year I am going to operate under the practice of pick maxing. And so for this week my pick maxing means I'm going to pick the cowboys and I'm going to triple the cowboys. Oh. Oh boy. Oh, that one of those starts kind of getting to your head a bit. Damn, dude. Triple playing the cowboys on the road, favored by two and a half his pick edging. I mean pick maxing for Dave Lane. All right. We're going to go with the real quick. Donnie, so what I'm seeing on our emails that the giants are favored by three. Is that incorrect? So okay. Here's the other thing. Two sets of lines, games that were sent out to us. Did you guys see that? The second one was right, correct? The one I'm looking at, I'm looking at the first one and it was cowboys by three. Okay.
Well, you just said two and a half. Oh, yeah. Well, two and a half is on the graphic on Twitter from picks with friends. That's what I was looking at. Email does say that. So, all right, well, the email says the giants are minus three. No, no, it's underneath the, yeah. The cowboys are definitely favored. Let's make sure we get the right line. So what I feel yesterday says two and a half. So what happened was is they left the cowboys off of the first graphic that I sent, but I had already had a line at minus three. And then when they put it back on, it was at two and a half. So it moved in the time between my initial email and when they actually just went on. Yeah. Not really typo necessarily as much as it was the line moving in between. So what are we rolling off? Seattle. This is quite a decision I have to make right off the bat, but I will say as of right now,
it does look like it's two and a half in my world. And I'm happy to settle on two and a half. Let me check one more thing just to be sure. Let's scroll just a little bit and two and a half. So two and a half it is. All right, there we go. It's two and a half. Even better for the cowboys. Two and a half the cowboys are favored. Davey, you still good with that? Absolutely. All right. Well, let's go with McLaren. You're next. You need your cowboy pick and your wild car and your triple play. That is fantastic. So I will take the cowboys and for my triple play, I am going to be the one who will to boomer sooner all day long because they're going to blow Michigan out of the water. So give me the tuners and the five and a half. How are we going about this week's order of picking other than Dave? I am looking to go second. I am looking at the graphic on picks with friends and that's how our picks, pictures are a... Well, that's weird. I'll listen. So just at random, however that guy said it was.
It's a week one. Why is everyone bitching about? Okay, you didn't get Oklahoma picking another one. Who cares? I'm down. Well, cheese. I'm going to move to your next. Well, I'll go cowboys since we're all interested in that game. I'll lay two and a half. And for my triple play, let's go with the Tulsa Golden Hurricane in Sam Houston and they're only laying 14, I believe. So you're going with Tulsa. Yeah, give me Tulsa. Alright. Tulsa it is for the loose. Alright, I'm next according to the graphic on picks with friends. So I will take the cowboys to come with the two and a half also. And for my triple play, Rutgers sucks. The college is favored by three and a half.
Rutgers lost the UMass. Give me Boston College to cover the three and a half. I'll take the Eagles of B. Wait, are you reverting back to picking normal games that we can actually access on the internet instead of games that don't really even exist or count? Maybe. Maybe not. Maybe it's just a one week thing. And if I lose, I'll go right back to where I need to be. Okay. I'm just counting playing this week. Robert Townsend. I don't know who he's playing this week. Alright, let's see who's next according to the graphic that is David Mino. Alright, my favorite game is still out there. So we're going to go to still water this week where we're still water. We're still water where Oregon barely escaped Boise State last week. Oklahoma State got humbled lost to Tulsa. Well, Oklahoma State bounced back in week two and covered the 22 and a half.
I think not. Give me Oregon minus 22 and a half is my triple play. Fascinating. Look out. There's a lot of people on the board picking the cowboy game. Oh, yeah, the cowboys. Who are you, a cowboy? Alright, and bringing up the rear, the sniffer Corby. So we want to get off to a hot start. We did not last night. It was very disappointing. So I'm going to go ahead and go with the cowboys begrudgingly. Cowboys. Yeah. Cowboys. Cowboys. Cowboys. My triple play, we'll just head south on 35 about 90 miles or so and that's where we will find McLean Stadium and Prairie View A&M coming in as a guest to play the Baylor Bears. Why is this line only 38 points after Baylor almost knocked off Auburn last week? They are pissed off one inch away from winning that game.
38 points. Let's go Bears. Sick of. Baylor's going to oh man. There's some racism here. It feels like it. I feel like I should just change my pick and fade and go prairie view. Well, let's go. Let's go. You've got to go. You've got to go. You will allow it. The commissioner would allow. Let's go. Let's go. I'll take it. Prairie view. Yeah. I'll take it. Let's get this thing off to a hot start. Thank you. And let me just say as a general rule, if you want to go head to head with somebody in a triple play showdown, a six game steel cage match, the commissioner will be very lenient in allowing do overs. I love that. We can sex topple this one. Make it a sixer. What? It's a long. What's it talking about? The season has to equal 151. That's a very confident. This career you barely has a team. OK. All right.
All right. That's right. Because you get a hundred on the right. Yes. By the way, did you see your TCUs playing this weekend? The team that I could rush a hundred against. I'm just gambling. Ploracism. Yeah. We can't. We can't. Man. Then he left. Like everything is OK. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. We're in half for a TV. Let's go. TV. Boy, Baylor doesn't have black dudes. What are we doing? Cheese. Whoa. You see any of which are just like that. They're all. We're all bam just. And we're here. No, they're not. We're all black. Surprise. You didn't want Oregon State against tech. Let me just say one thing. As I look at the HBCU rankings right now. Prairie View 4th. Grambling 5th. In the in the entire country. Sure. What does that mean? Gramm leaks 2 and 0. Prairie Views 1 and 1.
I think Prairie View lost to my eighth grade team last week. OK. All right. Well, they don't have to win the game. They just have to not lose by whatever the spread is. I'll take that. Right. They would kill North Carolina A&T or Mississippi Valley State this year. Yeah. All right. I first hit the head and picks with friends. I don't like this. Defending the honor of Prairie View. This is weird. OK. How is it weird? And my dog disagrees too. 38 points. I'll know what we figured out. They won the swag last year, dude. Who did Prairie View? No, I didn't know that. Is that a compliment? Yeah. They have a mullish Texas Southern. And Baylor can't win the swag. Where would your eighth grade team finish in the swag? First. They wouldn't know how to stop the wishbone. Let's be honest. Whoa. All right. Well, that's week one with picks with friends. Stop it. They wouldn't know how?
No, it'd be like aliens landing and just having this whole new offense. They wouldn't know what to do. All right. I'm tired of Corby right now. All right. That's picked with friends. For this week. Thank you, friends. We truly, truly appreciate it. Never notice how the second you lock in your picks, you completely changes a person. Before kick off your chilling. Relaxed. Maybe even a little bit bored. Then you lock your picks in. Now you're staying at three feet from the TV because somehow that's helping. You're googling weather reports from a stadium. Eight states away. And your screaming just throw it to them. Like you've got a direct line to the quarterback. Oh, I love that. I honestly think that's the best part of sports. Not the outcome. The sweat. That stretch between making your pick and finding out if you're a genius. That is why I play. And for those of us who watch to sit up and not sit back, it's got to be underdog.

It turns us all into complete lunatics in the best possible way.
Suddenly, you're rooting for a backup tie then you've never heard of because he needs 12 more yards.
