Let's get it on. Here we go. It is Brandon Jordan Cody and back like we never left. It's
to get Sunday covered podcast here to help you get your Wednesday covered. That's right.
It's Wednesday, October 22nd, and we're excited to talk some more nonsense with all of you
guys. So thank you once again for tuning in Brandon and Jordan. It's good to see you guys.
What's up?
Hello. It's it's going to be back after my week off. Speaking with you.
You're nasty. Speaking with you gentlemen before I went I went camping last weekend.
We had a GSC member up here from Texas section GSC Colorado. We came out. Shout out to Rob
Butler Crooks. No one knows that.
Yeah, no one knows. But there crooks, but guess he broke it down for everyone is where
did Trump get shot?
Butler, Pennsylvania. What was the last name of the shooter? Was it David Crooks? So Butler
Crooks. Shout out to Rob. What a clever name like only Rob.
What are the coolest names I've ever heard?
If we're playing like fantasy, Microsoft Excel, something like that, like maybe that's a better
name, but we're playing fantasy football Rob. But anyways, we were in camp and we had an
awesome time. I think it was a combination of the alcoholic beverages and the cold weather,
but we're better this week. We're back and I'm ready. I'm fired up, man. This was a
this was a good week for sports basketball starting tonight. Hawkeyes in full swing football
college football college hockey like October is the best man. Like this is the best month
for sports. Like if you like sports, welcome to October.
He's down, dude. Absolutely. You sound awfully spicy today, Jordan. I'm really glad to have
you back, man. Like this is I feel some good energy.
Yeah, I feel some good energy coming right here, man. So it's really good to have you
back on the show. What's good with you, man?
You know, just another week. We won't dive into fantasy this week. Just all around terrible
week. Tank Dell. What the fuck? It's all like my car one thing. They'll fucking dud.
Ouch. Big old goose egg. And then, yeah, I mean, I didn't start my week too hot. Camara
didn't do well. I'm a little bit worried until he has car come back. But we'll we'll survive
the next week or two. I think till car is back. I had a decent week. I don't know. You
guys are just sad. But I'm glad to have you both back, man. This is this is great. This
feels like like we're really in it now, right? We've got we're seven weeks in like we're
starting to establish a little bit of the we know who is going for it. We know who's
kind of starting to fall off at this point. So this is a this is a clutch time of year
in my opinion. And I think, you know, I can only speak for a couple of my leagues, but
I'm assuming for you guys to really start to see there. There are some trends for the
players that are performing. Obviously injuries have a lot to do with the teams that are performing
well. But I think trades are starting to roll through. I'm seeing in a lot of my leagues
that trades with Jordan. I know you got a good one going today, actually. So yeah, this
is this is where you make your money, so to speak. But I don't know, man, I'm excited
to dive into it with you guys. Yeah, I'm uh, I know I'm I don't know how far through the
season I'm feeling pretty confident. You never know, dude, the way it's going this year,
I think I feel like this year has had like more injuries, the big time players than maybe
it has been in recent memory, at least for me. But it happens every year. You never
know. Obviously if you it's kind of like when you're doing the trade, obviously if you're
going to do a trade with someone, you're not, if you knew the future and this guy was going
to get hurt, you're not going to make the trade. So you never know, man. It's just it's
such a coin flip and fantasy and the old Jordan, Jordan saying of a 90% luck, 10% scale always
applies. Always will every day to you need to get that tattooed, man. I don't have any,
but if you win your third GSC championship, you need to get that tattooed right across
your chest, 90% luck, 10% scale. I'm maybe not that big. Like maybe I was thinking like
over one of the chest areas here. No, I'm not lower bent. There's not many people going
to be seeing that. I'd like to see it myself every now and then. So I don't know, but I
don't have any tattoos, but maybe we'll start there right now. If I win it again, I'll get
it right now for you guys.
You heard it here first folks. Stop it. There it is right there. Stamp it down. You don't
even have to do it like in writing just do 90% slash 10%. That's all you got to do. Keep
it nice and simple, nice and small. Yeah. Right there on your foot. Put it right here.
Face tattoo. Mike Tyson. Under the eye. If I was rich and didn't have a job to go to,
maybe we'd think about that. Put it right behind your ear. Hey, no, I am you keep any.
I'm not doing anything that's visible every day life. Like you could cut your hair, bro.
No, you're going to have to get me a semi naked to see this tattoo. Hey, you were at
my wedding and you threatened to get down to your birthday. So when there's alcohol
involved, like I'm saying, I mean, it's going to get down to that point. Like people are
going to see the tattoo, but it's got to get to that point for you to see it. You're right.
Well, gentlemen, again, super grateful to have you back. You guys, thank you so much for tuning
in for another episode. This week we have a question from a listener, which is super
exciting. Really appreciate you. Shout out seven. He's part of our GSC main league at
seven ace. Yes, his name is seven. And yes, also six is afraid of him because he is not
eight. He's ninth in our main league. Sucks to be you. Hey, one thing I have noticed is
our top six has not changed for like three weeks straight. Yes, it has. What are you
talking about? No, the same top six, like the same people in the top six just shut
standings have jumped for sure. But I leave frog both of you fools this week. So no, the
east is one, two, three all of a sudden. What's up? Yeah. And it's not the east anymore.
So calling that it's Colorado versus everyone else. Whatever. I don't live in the east.
What further west than anybody is it? What is it in sleeper? It's west and east. Thank
you, Jordan. No, it's not. Is it really? Thank you. So you're east. Well, that's an
that's an error in my part. All right. It's Colorado versus everyone else. You guys can
suck it. Seven has a question for us, you guys. Thank you, seven. Seven wants to know
if you could sit behind the bench for any team for any game in all of history, what
team and what game would it be? And I love this question. Oh, it's a good one. Right
question seven. Super good. Brandon, why don't you jump in? Hmm. I'm going to go Lake Placid
1980. Miracle on ice. U.S. as a good man being there and nonetheless being able to be on
the bench. Man, that'd be sick. Super hard to get in the bike. Sorry, just getting beat
by them. What? Eight to one, 10 to one. Yeah, they got a B. And to one like two months,
like a month prior, they got 10 to one. All college kids, all college kids. Pre-NHO. Have
you guys seen that like conspiracy theory that it was that the Russian hockey team went
out with like the Russian gymnast team or whatever it was the night before because they
felt like they were going to just dominate. So they went out drinking because the gymnast
team, I think it was the gymnastic team won the gold. So they went out drinking with them
the night before. So they showed up to the game. They were all hung over. Have you guys
seen that? I have not. Look it up. It's it. You know, I'm a sucker for good conspiracies
theory. So you know what that sounds like to me. 90% luck and 10% sounds like an excuse.
Excuse me. Don't make champions. Don't make champions. So you're right. If they would
have won, you never would have heard about this story. So it doesn't matter. It's true.
They lost. Sure. Great game, Brandon. I think that would have been great. That would have
been awesome to be at the, I can imagine just being there as a member representing United
States and seeing your team and being a hockey fan. Like I can only imagine those players
during that game, your heart pounding and the adrenaline pumping through you. Like it
didn't matter if you broke your foot during that game, you were skating like you're pumped
to be playing during that game. So yeah, yeah, I could, I can agree with that. What you got,
Jordan. Yeah. So I guess I mean, I guess we're supposed to be talking about football, but
I'm going to roll in hockey too. I was thinking about this question. What probably yesterday
and then today I was thinking about games and I was thinking about man like a game seven
Stanley Cup final going over time, like would be cool. Super cool football game, game seven
baseball, but I'm like, if you've watched any type of hockey, you've been a fan of the
Red Wings or abs. March 26, 1997, Red Wings versus abs, Joe, Sarina, some brawls that
went down in that game. Always Mike Vernon and Patrick Wall. I feel like being behind
the bench, like people fight every day, you know, and it's like, well, yeah, what's your
real job? Well, I'm a librarian and I'm a teacher and they're fighting whatever it is.
No, these dudes are hockey players and they're just all out rolling on the ice. Like, so
being able to probably be closer than anyone besides the other players in the refs, you
know, would be that close and watching grown men fired up and angry. I've been part of
men's leagues and playing hockey before and, you know, getting paid a million dollars.
Maybe to get my ass whipped or beat someone else's ass like on the ice like let's go.
Like I think that'd be super cool. I don't know. Yeah. If you've never looked that up,
go on YouTube. Red Wings, abs braw 1997, like probably 13, 15 minute long video ran in Shanahan,
Mike Vernon, Patrick, Claude, the new Joe Sack, there's some old names in that, uh,
this old rivalry, the Red Wings and abs used to be a huge, uh, huge rivals. Um, they were
for shit 20 years, not maybe not that long. Maybe around 20 years and then they re-invited
and Detroit went to the East conference, which geologically and for flights and everything
else totally makes sense. I understand it. Um, just sucks because that's just going to
be one of those rivalries. That's never going to be what it was. So without that, that was,
that was a good game. I think for fights and like one of the most memorable goalie fights,
like first ones that I think people ever saw and remember. So what about you?
I gotta be honest, man, I love that take and I was super young when that happened and I
remember it so vividly. I remember where I was. I remember it like everybody that I
was around, like my family and stuff while we were watching it just instantly knew that
that was like, it's going to go down in history. Right.
It was a moment, right? A moment. Yeah. Yeah. Badass. So I agree with Jordan. If you haven't
seen that, go look it up because it's, you don't see that in pro sports match. No, that
doesn't, that doesn't happen anymore, dude. You might get a line brawl here and there,
but not the way it was. Not like that. No. Two goalies going at it. You're going to
lead us to some football. I will keep it. Yeah. I will keep it football here, guys. I was
thinking about this a lot and there's so many that I'd like to be a part of, but this one
just because I think it's, you know, recent enough to still be relevant, but also impactful
enough to be like a historic type of game. I would love to sit behind the bench of the
Seattle Seahawks in Super Bowl 49. Obviously, you know, we all know the story. Shitter ran
it. You got the best running back in league. Russ Wilson throws the pick. Seattle goes
down. Tom Brady jumps up and down more than the cheerleaders were. I like just to be a
fly on the wall on that sideline to hear some of the shit that was said. You know,
March on Lynch even gave the interview about it. He just, he said he walked up to Pete
Carroll's face and just as he should have, man. And I just imagine like some of what
was said on that sideline when they lost that because of that play. I don't know. I think
it was a good game in general, like the entire game, but in crunch time, that's enough for
me. There's a down for that. There's a famous clip because that'll always go down and is
what in the handed off to Marshawn. I try to be the, I guess that the glass half fold
type guy in this situation is what if they handed it off to Marshawn and ball got punched
out and he fumbles it and they, why'd you hand it off to Marshawn? Why didn't you throw it?
You're at the one yard line. Do a little tight end out. You know, so I always look at both
sides of it, but there's a famous clip on NFL films or whatever it is about the refs
in that game. After that play, it's intercepted and the refs kind of stand there talking to
each other and he's like, why didn't they hand it off to Marshawn? He's like, gets me.
So even the refs are questioning it, you know, and it's just one of those calls where is
it P Carroll? Is it the offensive coordinator? Was it Marshawn? Like, I don't know. Yeah.
99 out of a hundred times. I'm giving that ball to Marshawn, Jerome, Betis, Najee,
Harris, Derek Henry, Mike, all sought any of these backs that are giving it give that
ball to me for a yard. Like I will get in there. Like I will break my body to get one yard.
Like, you know, like,
why don't you get a push push?
So yeah. So, you know, yeah, that's I think that I always think about. So when you first
put this up there about the year, your game of the week, I always think I was like, would
it have been more fun for that game or Seattle when they dominated Denver? Like, how was their
sideline? Oh, just so I like third quarter, you know, why, why would you say that?
Well, because you got to hear a Broncos fan because if anyone, well, if anyone's listening
to this, like, you know, any Broncos fan was drunk by halftime because the game was already
over. So you're like, what does it matter at this point? Buddy, I turned the game off at half time.
You should have been Washington drinking at least, like, but I don't know. Yeah, that
yeah, that would have been a good one to be a part of just because what were the players
saying? What were other players on Seattle, even New England? There's a clip like you're
saying where Tom Brady's jumping up and down like there's NFL films. He's mic'd up there.
He's talking and he thinks the game's over like they lost. He's apologizing to Julian Edelman,
I think, sitting right there. Yeah. They win. So, hey, I mean, you never know, man. That's
you. That's why he plays scenarios like that led to Tom Brady being to the go.
Multiple, but it's just one of those things that don't ask how it's how many I I'm just
trying to fire it up for the people that are listening right now. Like, is he the goat? Yes,
I won't argue you. But look at that. It's in the club the other day. Exactly. And you didn't
chime in at all, sir. I mean, isn't there like is the vote? Isn't there videos about that? It's
like Charles Woodson, Adam Venetieri, you know, all this stuff that has made him what he is. And
it's like the way I look at it, maybe it's the last, you know, half full type thing, but
you have to put your team in that situation to ever have a chance to get to that.
Exactly. So, you know, so that's why I look at it. Whether you love him or hate him, you got to
respect the guy like for what he did for an NFL franchise for 20 years. Yeah. Yeah. Do you guys
see the deal that he has now as the minority corner of the raiders of the raiders? But he
concocted it in a way that he has all of these like rules and shit that he has to follow that kind
of contradicts his broadcast contract. Yeah. Yeah. I did say that. He's a genius dude. He's smart.
And he's been every all the stipulations that he has broadcasting with being a minority owner,
he's been doing that all season long to basically just prep the minority or ownership.
He can't be like the meetings ahead of, you know, the game like he,
there's a whole bunch of stipulations he has to follow.
Well, speaking of another almost close to 40 year old quarterback that doesn't eat avocado ice cream,
doesn't look like Tom Brady at the age of 40 plus. Doesn't win games like Tom Brady at the age of 40 plus.
The Jets, man, they're trash like shout out to the Steelers like no one was picking them Sunday night.
I don't know. I'm happy they came out like because everyone was hyped on the Jets,
the Bonte Adams, you know, coming to Jets, they're going to turn their season around this and that.
And it's like, they're going to turn it around the two and five because they didn't go into
Pittsburgh and do anything. They get like, I was worried at first. Russ looked kind of a
suspect in the first quarter. I'll give him that. And I told myself, you know, he hadn't played all year
and first game with the Steelers offense, like maybe this is a bad call by Mike Tomlin, but Mike Tomlin
said, no, fuck you all. I know my team. I know my quarterback. They took it to the Jets, man, like
Aaron Rogers is old. Like he looks slow. We can't move like he used to. We can't run.
You put any pressure on them. Like it's a sack. Like TJ Watt should have had six sacks in that game.
Like, but he gets double, double teamed every, every plays. That's fine. You know, leave something else open.
But the Jets are trash, man. Like, I mean, there's people talking about Rogers needs to retire after that game.
Like, here's the hot take of the week. Jets this year with the Steelers offense.
Hot take of the week. Jets this year with Rogers, healthy Rogers coming back off his Achilles.
Mr. I can play last year if we made it to the playoffs. That wasn't happening. But Jets this year,
two and five with Aaron Rogers with all those weapons around them.
Top five defense in the league two and five. You have Zach Wilson, who's a backup for Denver.
They were four and three at the same point last year. What's the difference? Zach Wilson can move.
They're still, they're both on interceptions.
What's the difference? You guys tell me the paycheck.
Exactly. I love it.
I love it. I listen. Okay. So we were all hyped up about the Devonta Adams trade and I agree with you.
I don't think it's going to make that big of a difference, man. To be honest with you, like,
you know, even, you know, Aaron Rogers said it like, oh, we need to run the ball more and blah,
blah, blah. It's like, the Aaron Rogers has single handedly turned this into the Lakers of the NFL.
You know what I mean? Like he's calling the shots. Like I'm going to bring in the people that I like.
I'm going to get rid of the people that I don't like. I, you know, I'm familiar with Nathaniel Hackett
and I'm familiar with the bottom Adams and guess what? You're still old. You're still.
I don't know. I'm not here to trash. I'm not here to trash Aaron Rogers. I think he's
one of the greatest to do it, but you're right, man. Shout out Pittsburgh. Like again,
looks good. Yeah.
Smack that ass. Sorry. Before you go, Brandon, like the thing, first off with the Lakers,
like you can't compare it to Lakers and obviously the Braun James, like LeBron won one in the Lakers.
So go out and win something there and maybe you can say hold on, hold on, hold and time out.
Do not get started with LeBron winning with the Lakers in the fucking bubble.
Time out does not fuck. Put a big asterisk around that. I mean, we can get into
because the biggest one is the Tampa Bay Lightning. If we're going bubble 2020 COVID year,
shit like that. But I'm just saying at least we went back to bat least. Yeah. But least LeBron has
done something with the Lakers. Aaron Rogers, man. He's just, I'm just saying he's two and five. He
does not look, you look at his last year in Green Bay. It was not very good in Green Bay. He played
four snaps last season. Poor as Achilles. He hasn't played really in over two years and like,
I mean, you mean to tell me if you put Zach Wilson on that team right now
to start this season with the talent they have around, they're not going to be better than two
and five. I mean, I think they would be better. I think three and four worst case.
I think that too. Yeah. Worst case three and four.
I just, Aaron Rogers, man, they're, they're, the thing I'll always say about Aaron Rogers,
he's hyped up as he's one of the greatest quarterbacks ever. This and that. How many
Super Bowls does he have? One. Eli Manning has more than him. He has as many as Trent Delford.
He has as many as Brad Johnson. Like people want to talk about stuff, but when it comes,
you're talking about Tom Brady being the goat, you know, yeah, cause he's got the rings.
Aaron Rogers has an, yeah, he's got great regular season stats and he's had all these first round
buys who goes into the Green Bay and beats them to win a, they're Super Bowl Eli Manning.
You know, so it's like you're getting beat by quarterbacks like that, but you want to go down
as one of the greatest go out and prove it dude. You're supposed to win these games against
Pittsburgh's where Pittsburgh where you're the favorite and you don't like, I don't know. Good
riddance to the jets like Russ Wilson came out. Yeah. Russ Wilson, let's go. Russ Wilson, like
shout out to Denver for paying a $48.8 million of a salary this year. We'll, we'll rent
Russ for 1.2 million this year. Yeah. Let's go. Russ Wilson, some words that I never thought
I would hear Jordan say. And honestly, man, you, like we were talking about it during that game.
And like when it started, we're like, yeah, he's shit. He's trash, man. Yeah. There it is.
And then rest on was not. He was not that he looked so good.
So I think it was maybe Han's talking, texts me about it. He's, he said, do you think it's
it's just being on a new team or do you think it was like Sean Peyton and he just, they didn't get
along and he needed a better coach or a different coach. And I was like, man, I think Mike Talman
is one of the best coaches going to go down as one of the best coaches in Steelers history at this
point already. And I think, I don't know. I don't obviously know Mike Talman as a person, but it
just seems like so many players respect that dude on his team, guys that play against some other
coaches, other people around the league that like he just does something right. Dude, he's never
had a losing season in Pittsburgh. So like, he knows what he's doing. Shout out to him because
there was a lot of criticism for him starting Wilson overfields. And after what I saw Sunday
night, I'll take it. I agree, man. He like Mike Talman strikes me as some of those dudes that
doesn't matter like your hierarchy or whatever it is that you're doing or your age or your status
or whatever it is. He just strikes me as one of those dudes where you're just like, yeah, all right,
bro. Mike, I'm going to listen to what you have to say. Exactly.
There's a reason he's never had a season under 500, correct? Jordan?
No, yeah, he's never had a losing season since he's been in Pittsburgh.
Whatever he does work.
He's a fun fact about that. It's third, third most all time behind.
Is it Tom Landry? And I know Billichek is second on the list and Mike Talman's third.
So pretty impressive.
Well, in other news, I think Kyler Murray and Arizona is going to hit a losing streak here
shortly. New Colored duty drops this week and we know Kyler, he's a gamer. So I think their season
is over and you might as well just pack up your suitcases and hit the golf course now.
The one reason is this is false this year for Kyler is he's not hurt like he's on the field
playing. So maybe he's not going to get in as much Call of Duty time this year as he has in previous
years. He's going to come out next week with a strain thumb. Just so happens on Tuesday or Monday
so I can pick it up Tuesday morning. He's got tendonitis in his thumb.
I don't know. I thought Arizona was going to be better than what they are this year.
I don't know, man. Like just kind of one of those teams that I don't know just seems like
there's some hype around them because they have Kyler and it doesn't ever really do much, you know,
and it's like, you know, I want to see it, I guess, but it's the Arizona Cardinals like
it's Arizona Cardinals like you ever see someone walking around with their hat on like,
oh, you're an Arizona Cardinals fan. Like I kind of forgot about them. That was the Buffalo Bills
in the early 2000s. Like, oh, I kind of forgot their NFL franchise. Like they were so bad that
it's just weird because when teams are bad, like you don't ever see anyone repping their jerseys
or hats or stuff like that. Unless it's one of these top tier like Lakers Yankees, you know,
teams like that where there's gears being sold. I don't know. I hope Arizona does good. I
have a lot of pieces there, man. Like I feel like they have a good offense, but I don't know.
I'm kind of with you. You forgot one team there, Jordan, for your start, stereotypical
Lakers Yankees fan. You forgot the Cowboys Celtics. I try not to put the Cowboys in any
sense with America's team. So no one likes that. Oh, I want to pin that. I want to pin that real
fast because I want to get you guys's take on who is actually America's team. But I want to
continue on this Kyler Murray thing. I kind of agree with you, Jordan. Like coming into the season,
a lot of the analysts were, you know, super high on Kyler. They're getting Marvin Harris and Jr.
Like, I don't know, man. I don't know if it's a systematic issue, but I'm kind of with you on
this is like something's not clicking. Like you said, with the talent that they have there,
you would expect it to be a little bit more exciting. I'm not saying they're a bad team. I
mean, their defense is bad, but like speaking fantasy wise and like offense wise, I don't think
that they're a bad team. But I think the expectation was for them to be better than they are. And I
feel like this has been kind of a trend with Kyler. Obviously he missed a lot of time with him being
hurt, you know what I mean? So we'll kind of push that to the side. But you know, outside of the
one season, what was it? 2020-2021? And they're kind of mid, dude.
Yeah. And the other issue with Arizona is they can't, they, they win a game and then they lose. So
they're going to just hover right around 500 all season, or are they actually going to put together
two wins at all? Which makes it hard to rebuild even if you want to, you know what I mean? You got
Marvin Harris and Jr. And then what? You're not going to upgrade the line. You're not going to
upgrade the, I don't know, like they shift, cliff Kingsbury out and they're like, they're the same
fucking team. Yeah. So I don't know. I don't get it. I actually made a trade for Marvin Harrison,
Jr. Today with seven, actually are the same seven who made the question, not the seven that's in
seventh place because he's in ninth. So ninth doesn't sound good for a name seven. So just
keep calling you seven. But we made a trade today. Huge shout out to seven last year. I've
probably preached this guy more personally than I have publicly about doing a trade with me last
year. The week I was playing this man, he traded me a Eric Henry for Debo Samuel straight up and
yeah, I feel like it helped me win the championship and I traded him Debo and Debo got hurt that
next week for San Francisco. It's when he hurt his shoulder and he was out for like four games. So
sorry, seven. Sorry, I worked out like that. But I traded for him today. I traded a Najee Harris.
I feel like it's a fair trade. The only thing I wish about Najee is he caught the ball more. They
threw him the ball more. Like, I just feel like if he was on a different team, like that guy could
play so much more and they like Jaylen Warren. I like Jaylen Warren, but a fantasy side and a big
running backside, like just give Najee the ball 25 to 30 times a game. He's going to run people over.
Like he's just a big guy. And so shout out to you seven. I hope it works out for us both. And I
hope Marvin Harrison Jr. kind of turns the season around. Kind of does like he was earlier.
And that's what I was going to get at. You feel like there's some upside to be had there.
I do. Like I said, I was kind of on Arizona earlier, early in the season. I just
feel like there was some hype around them. Like I said, their offense is good. Like
they don't have the best defense, but they got a good offense, man. They got, I mean, James Connors
is the stud, I think, you know, he's a big guy. He likes to run people over too. And
I got Trey McBride, Marvin Harrison Jr. Michael Wilson. I don't know. Tyler Murray, he's always
a threat to run. He's like a little baby back version of Lamar Jackson, you know,
he's not what I thought you were going to say.
Didn't take it that far, but he's not that bad. He runs, he scores touch sounds. He can
evade people. Looks like a video game character at some points, but I don't know.
We'll see. Either it works out or it doesn't.
I felt like I could give up running back and still be all right with my team. So
take a chance on them and who knows, maybe just pops off these next four or five weeks for me,
or he's just the dud and gets five to 10 points in my bench and it is what it is. Never know
unless you try a type thing.
Let's tell you right now, Jordan, if you win this for a third time in four years,
you're kicked out of the league.
That's fine. And I'll always go down as the guy, Hey, this dude got kicked out of the league for
three times in four years. So don't be that guy.
That is true. That is true. I'm just trolling you, man. I'm just trolling you.
Speaking of guys, Hey, listen, I feel like we're doing something right.
Here you guys feel good about the pod, right? I feel like we've got a good group of people
that listen pretty consistently. I like what we're doing. I love chatting with you guys,
but I have some news for you. And I'm not sure if you're aware of this or not.
Oh, I'm well aware that gets Sunday covered podcast has our first official troll.
So I feel like we're getting somewhere guys. I feel like we're getting some there.
I want to share something with you real quick. Brandon, you brought this to my attention.
I did. John Ringo has this to say about the get Sunday covered podcast.
Says, I listened to these idiots and I lost worse than I would have if I let my wife set my line up.
John Ringo, buddy. I'm not sure if I believe that you've actually listened to our podcast,
but thank you for the feedback and I'm sorry that you lost, man.
Is that official word for word? He's lost, lost worst.
Yeah, he needs to, he needs to, he needs to get his, he needs to get his, he needs to get his,
he needs to get his word is lost, lost worst. Yeah, he needs to.
Yeah, that's, that's for worse.
Lost worse. So, yeah.
So John, maybe you're English. Maybe you have a problem typing so you can't hear what we're saying
and we're not exactly telling people how to set their lineups. We're just here for more entertainment
than actually being official, but hey, we appreciate the feedback and I mean, I don't know,
I do pretty good in fantasy football. So, maybe if you copy me, you'll be all right.
Hey. Also, like,
Well, here's the, here's the other thing is the response back that I, I run all of our social
media for everyone that doesn't know. So Cody and I kind of split share it, but I do a lot of
the posting and everything like that.
It's all branded. We don't split it. It's all branded.
Cody knows Cody posts like the meaning than the stories. I post everything else. So in,
in, in response, I did reply and I said, sorry about your loss, but clearly you don't actually
listen because we don't give analytical advice. Also, don't recall receiving as we're not analysts.
So maybe you are just bad at fantasy football, but if you want any fantasy football advice
for those of you listening, go ahead, go listen to the fantasy footballers, fantasy football today,
bdge, any of those guys, by all means, we are not analysts. We don't give analytic,
analytic advice or anything like that. If you listen to the podcast, you would know.
So my response was kill them with kindness, but also at the same time, make sure that this guy
knows like, dude, you're going after the wrong people because we didn't tell you shit. Now,
granted, this was on a weekly post of our stardom sit him questions. If people had stardom
sit him questions, guess what? This guy claimed he asked us any or that we gave him advice, buddy.
We didn't give you shit.
It was your lineup on there next week and we'll give you advice on that. And then you can blame us.
Also, weird that you threw your wife under the bus with that post. I mean, I get it, man. Talking
shit is one thing, but just going to give it to your wife like that. All right.
He's probably a better fantasy. Probably better fantasy football player than him.
My wife is first place in our Pacific Northwest leaks.
I'll let her set my line. That's fine. There's the answer. Cody's wife is.
Well, we all knew that Cody can't win fantasy in the main league at all.
No, no, it's been white sometimes since he's even reached a championship round. So
so good luck, Cody. What are you guys? What are you guys dressing up for is Halloween?
Because I heard that John Ringo is dressing up as a clown.
No costumes for me this year.
You're just going to go as a two time champ.
Yeah, you don't. Let's go as a Steelers player, bud.
There you go. Oh, yeah. Oh, no costumes for me.
Yeah, I don't I don't think we're a wifey and I are going to do any costumes or anything like
that. Just mainly the kiddos. We got Theo. Theo is going to be Jack Skellington.
He's really addicted to Nightmare Before Christmas.
As he should be. And absolute classic. If you don't like that movie, you're wrong.
Oh, yeah. And then Dax, we don't really know what we're going to do with him yet.
Have you yet to decide if we're even going to do anything with him?
So I'm going to put him in something and carry him around.
I was going to try to find like a zero costume.
We were trying to find like a zero costume. I'm cool.
I was like, oh, if we find something, you know, cheap or something like that,
but I'm not going to go spend 30 little M&M. Little M&M, dude. I have those little M&M babies.
So I actually have my my mom and dad went to Vegas like a couple of months ago,
so they got M&M shirts. So Theo got one and Dax got one and I could just throw Dax in the M&M shirt.
Yeah. There you go. Perfect.
Solid. Jordan, are you going to obviously you don't have kids, but are you at least going to pass out
candy? No, you know, when I bought this house first year, I bought a bag of candy and stuff.
And I was like, I'm going to hand out candy to the kids. I sat here for like three hours.
My doorbell rang one time since that year I just shut my lights off. I know when getting candy for
me, like I was going to do it as a nice guy, which I don't blame anyone. Like you guys know
my neighborhood, like no kids are trying to walk up that hill to go trick or treating like
they're going up the flying horse or you're going to some rich part of town where you're
getting full size candy bars. Like no one's sugar treating around here. Like it's a lot of walking
up and down hills. Like this isn't a flat neighborhood. Like no, I don't blame kids.
That's funny. All right. Well, this week, I do want to just touch make sure reminder to everyone
in the fantasy football club championship standings will be posted later this week,
just to kind of give an insight on who's first in each league as of now as we progress throughout
the season. We'll start to kind of see the way it pictures into playoffs and then kind of got some
cool ideas coming for that as we get closer. So we'll see how that goes. Nonetheless,
I do want to shout out Mark or you have been involved in so much, whether it's reacting,
commenting, posting, saying in contact with me weekly with your own individual division that
you're running. Thank you. Huge shout out to you, man. We appreciate you so much. And we love
Mark being you active within the club. It is something that is amazing and we want more
people exactly like you and part of this. And this is one of the reasons we even created this
concept. Shout out to Mark here, Mark A. Corr. I didn't even know this was going to come up today.
I think he posted, I think it was on Sunday about he posted in the GSC club about he had two bets
posted about letting him ride or cash him out. And I'm always about letting it ride. Like always
let it ride, dude. Like when that money don't cash out, like let's go. Like
risk it. He let both of them ride and he won both the bets. So shout out to you, Mark.
Glad you won both those bets. I'm not here for betting advice because if you're going to ask me,
99% of the time, let it ride. Like want to win that big money. So
this country, let's ride. Let's ride. No, he has a new saying in Pittsburgh now. What is it?
It's something dumb. No, no shit. Yeah, he does.
It's something. What do you have in Seattle?
Because he had his own little catchphrase at the end of interviews in Seattle and then it was
let's ride in Denver. And then he has one for Pittsburgh. Well, he had he always ended his
interviews with Go Hawks. Yeah, Go Hawks in Seattle. Yeah, that's what it was. That's what
it Seattle was. And then let's ride in Denver. Russell Wilson Steelers saying. All right. All
right. So real quick before we move on from Mark, because I do, I do want to say something about
that. But what's more cringy the Russell Wilson Denver Broncos let's ride or the Dak Prescott.
Yeah, here we go. Here we go. Here we go. Where did that come from? I don't like it's how do you
just show up? Like this is how we're going to do the cadence now. It's annoying. Yeah, here we go.
It's so stupid. I don't know. I'd say Broncos country let's hide is what it should have been
all of last year. Yeah. Yeah. That was pretty bad. But yeah, Mark, seriously, thank you, man. We
appreciate you. Thank you, Mark. I'm just with you, Bren, and I didn't know that he was running a
league for us. Which league is he in charge of East? Oh, he's got the East Division. That's
right. Okay. Cool. Well, Mark, seriously, thank you. And we're going to be doing another watch
party soon guys. So Mark, I fully I want to see you there, man. We appreciate you. You're doing
a work for GSC. So keep it up, man. We appreciate that. All right, boys, I want to bring in a new
segment this week. Another weekly kind of update that I've been doing is a new segment each week.
This week, I want to bring in the rookie radar. I want to get your guys's feedback on how you
guys feel about how these rookies are performing and, you know, what you guys think about the week
ahead for them. Just kind of want to see what your guys's insights are. I know for me right now,
I'll start, I would say I feel like Drake may, even though he's played only two games, might have
put himself into you mean may have. Ah, but I think he might be waiver wire worthy. And I think he
might even be starter worthy after back to back weeks, thrown up 20 plus.
Well, I'm hoping you didn't sneak something in there. He is. He's actually in my waiver claims.
I'm dropping Dalton Schultz for him. So I have hurts if you have one of these top guys,
I don't think you target him. But if you do need someone and you're not having one of these top
quarterbacks that you're comfortable with, I probably target Drake may to be honest.
I think Drake may looks good. He looks solid. Pass the ball pretty good. I mean,
looks better than a lot of QBs to me, in my opinion, throwing the ball already. So
if you're a New England fan, I think a lot of upside there. Just get a little better offensive
line around them and some better players around them and could have something good there. You'll
see what happens with Jane Daniels, the rib injury. Think a week to week thing there.
Bo Nicks. Denver wins games. I don't know how if you've watched one of their games,
you're kind of perplexed. Somehow they win games and Bo Nicks can't throw the ball,
but he'll run for 30 yards and get first sounds and get yardage that way. Xavier worthy.
Came out hot. I've really heard his name in the past couple of weeks.
Caleb Williams. I mean, shout out to the NFC North through that division is the only division. All
four teams are 500. I know as far as last week, they were one through four and pretty much plus
minus in the NFL, that whole division. So we'll see when the Bears actually play some real teams
here. Let's play the Vikings and Green Bay and stuff like that. But I don't know. I don't know.
I think these rookies are doing pretty good, especially the quarterbacks, Jane Daniels,
Caleb Williams. I think maybe surprising some people. I think definitely Jaden Daniels over
Caleb Williams, but I'm excited for it. I'm like I said, I think Drake may, Drake may looks,
kids got a big arm and he's a big kid. So I'm excited for him for the future. See what he does,
but say out of all those quarterbacks, at least I'm excited about his definitely bonus.
Cody. So I'll jump in about Drake made. Let me just say I am a big Drake may fan. I think he's
fantastic, but of the two games so far, I mean, he got Jacksonville, you know what I mean? Like
they got the dub, but that that defense is ass. And his schedule coming up is not super favorable.
So I like Drake may well enough. I just that's not somebody that I'm
super interested in in adding. I don't like the offense. I don't like the weapons that he has.
So I don't know. I love to see it. I'm glad they made the change for sure. Get him some
experience, get him some reps, get him some, some good games and some wins and stuff like that.
But that's not something that yet I'm targeting for my fantasy team personally. Are you targeting
Hunter Henry then? No, I'm not because I have Brock Bowers and I am set Jordan.
I am not. I have David, David and Joku and you went off for 24 points this last week. So
I think with a Mario Cooper gone and I mean, he was getting balls from DTR and James Winston
after the Sean went down. So no, I'm sticking with and joke. I'm not picking up anyone from New
England. I have for Mod Stevenson sitting on my bench and going to take a lot from me to put
him back into my lineup. So no, I do like Drake may though as a fantasy option for a quarterback,
just because I think the kid's going to put up at least 200 yards a week, two touch sounds almost
every week, what I've been seeing like good defenses or not. I just think he's going to have
enough guys around him that just one of those things where kind of like Buffalo, where they
don't have a number one guy, it's just whoever's open, you're just going to rip the ball to. So
I think it's going to be all right learning curve for them. I don't see New England doing anything
this year as far as wins wise, but I think Jray may it could be a good year for him and good things
to come. So yeah, I think out of all the players that you just touched on, the biggest one for me
is Jane Daniels. I'm hoping the injury is not anything that's going to ruin this season that he
has going on. Obviously last week was a down week, not just for him, but for fantasy as well.
I hope he's okay. Like they say he is. That's that's the one that I'm super high on. I think
if anyone's going to be able to turn a franchise around, I'll take Jaden Daniels over Caleb Williams
right now. I really wouldn't. I agree. I love the way he plays. I love his energy. I love how
I guess humble slash down, you know, down to earth. I guess that's the same thing. I love the kid.
He's he's a baller dude. And I look forward to seeing him really blossom as, you know, one of
these next Lamar Jackson's or Josh Allen's, you know what I mean? Like I think he's going to be great.
Yeah, I completely agree. It's kind of isn't it weird to you that last year,
Bryce Young was the first quarterback drafted. CJ Straug goes second and does amazing, right?
And this year it's kind of like not really hearing too much about Caleb Williams,
but you're hearing everything about Jaden.
The second same thing. It's it's the exact same thing. I don't know what it is, but
maybe it's a good thing not to be the first all that hype around the first pick. Yeah,
you're just coming in kind of sneaking in and doing your thing and not as many cameras on you
and focus on you and you can stick to your own thing. But I know we'll see. Imagine Michael
Penix went somewhere besides Atlanta Atlanta and was playing somewhere. Imagine he ended up in like
New Orleans, New Orleans, New Orleans, Las Vegas. Oh yeah, Las Vegas was going to draft him. They
were the pick after the Falcons and the Falcons took him. I'm pretty sure the Raiders were taking
him at the next pick and the Falcons kind of shocked everyone and took him to pick before the Raiders.
So we'll see. But I don't know, like speaking of, I know you're talking about these rookie
quarterbacks and hopefully we get to see it this weekend with the games of the week. I know that's
got to be one of your guys's picks with the Bears and Commanders because those two rookie
quarterbacks that they're going at it like let's hope for Jaden Daniels. But I don't know. So what
is your guys's games of the week? Cody, we'll start out with you. It is. Yeah, I'll jump in. And
that is my game of the week. Actually, I will take the Washington Commanders against the Chicago
Bears. I love this matchup, man. I think hoping that Daniels is fully healthy. I'm looking forward
to a shootout, man. I really am. Obviously the Bears. I should have been prepared for that question,
man. I think I want to take, if Jaden Daniels plays, I'm taking the Manders in Washington.
And like, I, it's just monolimono head to head, like let's go. I look forward to, man. This is,
to me, what, you know, Mahomes versus Lamar Jackson would be. I'm really excited about this
matchup. I'm really excited to see both of these quarterbacks in the next three, four, five years.
How good they're going to be. I think this matchup is going to be an awesome watch. So
I'll take the Manders at home. As long as Jaden plays. As long as Jaden plays, correct.
I'm kind of in the same exact boat with that one, Jordan. Yeah, I don't, I mean, I think even with
Marcus Mariota, I mean, he looked pretty good when he came in last week. I get it was Carolina, but
it's kind of the same type of quarterback. Obviously, I don't know, hasn't done what Jaden
Daniels has already done, but I think that offense is good, man. Like Ryan Robinson,
you got Austin Eckler, like Terry McClaren is finally having Terry McClaren. Scary Terry.
It's how he's like, let's go. Let's go Terry. He's been doing good for me and in fantasy. So
I've been happy for him. I think even if Jaden doesn't play, I think it's still a good game,
but I still have the commanders winning regardless, no matter who plays a quarterback for him.
Oh yeah. Brandon, what about you? Who you got? I'm taking my game of the week. I'm going to take
Sunday Night Football, Cowboys 49ers. It would be interesting to see exactly kind of what the
injury report there is. Not really many kind of games of the week to look at this week.
Say, do you not feel like this is going to be a boring game?
I don't know. Like obviously for me, it's it's it's such a weird week because there's not that
many like solid games. Like the only other good game that kind of stands out to me is maybe the
Eagles and Bengals. Sneaky game. Yeah. But that's about it. Like nothing really else.
Who you taking in the Cowboys 49ers then? I'm going to take the 49ers at home.
Actually, no. With that, actually, I'm going to I'm thinking about it and I'm like, man,
49ers are banged up in terms of they got no D-Bomb, no right. Yook. Yeah. I and maybe even
is Jennings going to be back. Kettle foot injury. Kettle like I'm going to boys off the by Cowboys
off the by to yeah, you're right. Cowboys. I'll take Cowboys. Yeah, I'm taking Cowboys too. If
Cowboys don't win this game by like 20, like they ain't going to win another game this season.
Like this is coming off a by a banged up 49ers team. Like beginning of the season,
everyone's looking at this matchup like week seven. Like these might be two division leading
teams six and one, five and two at this point or something, you know, I don't know. Not looking
good. So they've really both need to win. Yeah. But I think the Cowboys will get
Cowboys. Yeah. Jordan, what you got this week? As you were saying, there, I don't know, there
wasn't too many good games. I'm going to go divisional matchup. Colts at Texans.
Texans are still my Super Bowl pick. They're not looking that good. Shroud's not looking that good.
As you said, tanked out, putting up a zero without Nico to like, yeah,
yeah, make zero sense. They're still in games like they have a chance to win on the
last two or last second field goal last week to Green Bay. The Colts, I think the best thing for
them is somehow that Anthony Richardson gets hurt and in practice or he's trained something and Joe
Flacco comes in because I feel like the Colts are a better team with Joe Flacco in there. But we'll
see. It's a divisional matchup. These two teams always seem to kind of go at it. And I think the
last couple of years it's been down to them for the division, especially with Jacksonville, kind
of being down this year. So I feel like these are, it's a big game for the Colts. I feel like
they kind of need to win this if they want a chance to this division. So we'll see. I don't know,
kind of, Andy coming off of a win. Texans coming off a loss, but I'm going to take the Texans at home.
What's the word on Jonathan Taylor? He's practicing this week. So I think he's going to be back
this Sunday, but I'm optimistic because he's on my fantasy team. But that's what the word is on
the street. Is that he's practicing? Yeah, I have a hard time picking the Colts in this one. I got
to go Texans. Like I just think they're the dud of a game from Tank Dell. That's not going to repeat
itself. I got to take Texans here. That's what I'm saying. Tank Dell can't throw up another zero. I'm
taking, I'm taking the Texans. I think he has a big bounce back week. I'm hoping for it. I'm debating
on if I play him or not. So we're going to see. Is that, is that three for three guys? We got
Mander's Cowboys Texans this week. All three of them. I'm sweep this week, I guess. One of those
teams is losing for sure. I don't know. I don't know. We'll have to see. This is, this might be the
first time we all agree fully across the board. I think so. We'll see. That usually doesn't work out
good. If we still owe you guys a count, by the way, for our, for our pickups this year. But
if you don't know what our pickups are, why don't you go join one of our pickups leagues
next season? I mean, you could still join now. It's not too late. You just wouldn't be.
You're just not going to win. You can still join. I mean, by all means come, come join our pickups
league. It's in the fantasy football club. I believe it's under a feature. Honestly, like
it's been pretty competitive. I want to give a good shout out here to Arnie. Who is it? Who's it?
Yeah. Yeah.
So close. So close, Carney. You were one game short from a perfect week, but
congrats. You're 16 11.
Killed it this week. 14 of 15 games, right?
Yeah. 14 of 15 last week, 13 correct picks. So he's leading the way with 71 correct picks this
year. So not too bad, my guy. You're nipping out his heels, Cody.
Try. I know I was there at the beginning and then I'll pick the last three games wrong.
Otherwise, I was going to be right behind you guys tight in fourth place with 67.
I went a little bit bold, went jets, went chargers and went bucks that did not pay off.
Then want one.
And I was tempted to just switch over to Baltimore and I was going to switch over to Arizona
before games kicked off. I was like, oh, no, didn't. And I should have.
Then I would have at least been up there a little bit more time for fourth, but it's all good.
Plenty of time left. We still got to go guys. We still got 10 weeks.
All right. I'm excited. I'm excited. Actually, 11 weeks. I think.
Right. A lot of football left. See what happens. A lot of stuff can change.
Yep. Well, with that being said, thanks for tuning into another episode, guys.
Don't be sure or be sure. Don't be sure. Don't forget.
Comment. Driver follow if you haven't already. Be sure to hit us up to always get you guys'
Sundays covered till next week. Peace. We appreciate you guys. Peace.
