Speaker
All right, this week we'll have a we have a ah special guest, Andy, as always, and here is ah their intro, because I had to find it. They used to say if man could fly, he'd have wings. But he did fly.
00:01:44
Speaker
He discovered he had to. Risk? Risk. Risk is our business. That is what this league is all about. Drafting players, setting lineups, and making trades. Oh, I see. That's why Jared is on this week's show.
00:02:00
Speaker
He's the only one offering up trades in the Discord. Exactly. And now, let's welcome him to the show. Hey, welcome, Jared. Hey, thanks for having me.
00:02:13
Speaker
i will i will say I was only offering trades, not because I was trying to get new players, ah but but because I was worried that I was going to injure a Viking. so Oh, by being on your team?
00:02:26
Speaker
Right, correct. Yeah, my my team is somehow cursed. So I was doing my best to to be a a good Vikings fan and get them off my roster.
The Penny Debate and Coin Elimination Humor
00:02:35
Speaker
That's... that's yeah You guys remember the Poison Slammer?
00:02:44
Speaker
Oh, like from Pogs? Yeah.
00:02:49
Speaker
I mean, no? I don't remember. I remember Slammers. The Poison Slammer kill a Pog? What? I don't remember what the Poison Slammer did, but it had special rules, and I just think Poison Slammer might be ah you know, e-fest. Would that be a good name for my flip? that what saying? That I should call myself, instead of one cent, I should be the Poison Slammer?
00:03:11
Speaker
it's it's It's also circular, you know? would fit in your little logo. but Tell you what, if if someone gets injured on my team this week, i will I will be the poison slammer for the rest of the season.
00:03:23
Speaker
Sweet. Poison slammer might be back. Not that I'm hoping anyone gets injured. Right, yeah. Before we were recorded, we were I was telling Jared that I've been behind on news headlines, but I did see that we are going to stop minting the penny.
00:03:38
Speaker
Wow. Change you can believe in. Yeah. Or not. Or not. Just change. You don't believe in it and then poof, it doesn't exist. Right. A penny.
00:03:49
Speaker
That way you should get rid of the nickel, the dime, and the quarter next and just go with dollars. I hate being nickel and dimed. Just a dollar coin and then well' that's it.

00:11:31
Speaker
All right. ah Jared, did you watch the Flakings game? I did. um Did you have any strong opinions? i to Everybody looks terrible and also ah not terrible at the same time.
00:11:44
Speaker
was like, that was how I felt the whole game. um Should I try to trade for JJ? Okay. Try to trade for JJ. Yeah. I don't like my quarterback, Jordan. la ah I, as long as you want, I think he's got a low floor, or like our, you know, a high floor, but not a high ceiling.
00:12:06
Speaker
Like, I think he'll always put up a decent number of points. well Yeah. He'll always put up 12. So if you need 12 points, he'll get you 12. If you need 18, he'll get you 12.
00:12:19
Speaker
Sure. Hey, what's what what changed from Detroit game to this game? um He slept at home the night before. I don't know. you know I think Justin Jefferson looked like trash.
00:12:31
Speaker
That didn't help. And that's been...
00:12:39
Speaker
Thanks for participating in the Mjolnir Minute. Jeff, have we had any calls in the last minute? Oh, man. We have. One second here. You know, i'm I'm trying to gather my thoughts here, but I can't help but continue to be listening to this episode with Tim on it. And then I just, you know, later in the episode, the episode should have been over a long time ago. It's way over time.
00:13:06
Speaker
Yeah. Really. yeah You should have edited because now you're just talking about me on an episode with Tim. And you said lot of hurtful things.
00:13:22
Speaker
It's very difficult for which for me to listen to. And again, the show should have been over. Kind of bullshit that you decided to take extra time just to shit on me.
00:13:37

00:14:41
Speaker
Well, um, yeah, Jeff. i was just going say, hell, it's been a hell in cell. That's a good one. He was born in Indiana, you know, so it's makes sense that he's in our league.
00:14:56
Speaker
No, you're right. and We do need an Indiana rep. Geographically speaking. Right. Makes sense. He could maybe find Tom.
00:15:06
Speaker
I'd send him. I'd watch that show. Yeah. Hey, Jared. You know it's time. Oh, I just wanted to say first of all, so we got voicemail number two, which we played after Cues and Cs.
00:15:21
Speaker
We did a Mjolnir minute, which was how long? um minute. Okay. And then when we came out of that minute, because we came right out of that minute and we listened, we had a call in that minute.
00:15:34
Speaker
yeah How long was that voicemail number three? it was It was about 58 seconds. I'm going to have to go back and listen to the tape, Jeff, because it felt like a week.
00:15:49
Speaker
Me. yeah I should be at work a year ago. Right. yeah There might be extra time. It's hard to say. um You were about to say... was about to say it's time for everyone's favorite segment and the reason for the season.

00:17:10
Speaker
So, um,
00:17:12
Speaker
so ah All farmers, ketchup, too spicy. Sure. Eye contact is too intimate. So we never really actually have a conversation face to face.

00:18:38
Speaker
Other. Yeah, maybe. um We are at that stage where we do not have hobbies together anymore. It is all driving kids to places, although finally my my son Landon has a license so that has helped.
00:18:52
Speaker
um But otherwise, it's kids and sports and work all the time.
00:18:59
Speaker
You, you, you, there's, there's nothing you guys, this is very important, Jared. There's nothing, no, nothing little you carve out for, for just the two of you. Well, I mean, we have, uh, we do our, like, watch Marvel shows and movies at night, or right now we're actually doing the Stranger Things thing.
00:19:21
Speaker
um The Stranger Thing, as it were. Right, the Stranger Thing thing. But I wouldn't say that we have any specific hobbies right now.
Unpopular Opinions on Marvel's Future
00:19:32
Speaker
Well, Jeff, what do you think? I was trying to help him.
00:19:38
Speaker
No, God! No, God, please, no! No! No! No! All right, I'm one for two.
00:19:51
Speaker

00:20:18
Speaker
couple of 13, 14. Yeah. Last time I trained for a month, I got it down to eight. That was two years ago. So I'm going to say nine minute mile.
00:20:38
Speaker
Slightly older now.
00:20:41
Speaker
Hardly, hardly. um I would say. correct Correct. Correct. Correct.
00:20:55
Speaker
Yes, yes, yes. Quite correct. ah Jared, what's... Jeff, how do we do... Jared.
00:21:08
Speaker
Yes. How do we do Jared? No, give us a... That could actually be my wife and I's hobby. though We definitely do that. You know, I was going to say besides the obvious, but congratulations there, sir. You've got to keep the flame burning.
00:21:23
Speaker
What is an unpopular opinion of yours, Jarrett? some Hopefully something like pop culture, you know, something we can just have an enjoyable to debate about. But, you know, something you like that no one else does or vice versa.
00:21:40
Speaker
Something like an unpopular opinion that would get me in trouble. no No, no, no, no, no. But like you, you love something that everyone shits on or, or everyone seems to love something and you just think it's trash, you know?
TV Show Critiques: 'The Good Place' and 'House of the Dragon'
00:22:00
Speaker
Oh, okay. Are you the sole champion of something? Do you feel alone in your appreciation of ah something? or Do you want to come back to this one?
00:22:10
Speaker
No, i' you know what? i don't know if this is an unpopular opinion or not. Jeff I will decide. But i I do think that Thunderbolts is an extremely underappreciated Marvel movie and should have been sort of done a lot better than it did.
00:22:28
Speaker
don't know how unpopular that is, but um that is definitely my favorite Marvel movie in some time. Also, I don't think that they should have Dr. Doom as the next villain.
00:22:42
Speaker
think that's a dumb idea. Well, you mean it's a Doom idea? It's a Doom idea, and bringing back Robert Downey Jr. is also a dumb idea. It's a Doom, Dummy idea. What's that?
00:22:54
Speaker
Did you see Thunderbolts, Jeff? Yeah, I thought it was pretty good. I thought it was pretty good, too. You know what that means, Jarrett? Correct. rat holy moon Correct. Correct.
00:23:06
Speaker
That's not an unpopular opinion? No, we all agree that it's a great movie. I know, but possibly you guys are the gauge of popularity. yeah however Whatever you guys decide is... No, no, no, no, no.
00:23:19
Speaker
It's 88%. God! No, God, please, no! No! No!
00:23:24
Speaker
so
00:23:28
Speaker
If I'd have known my audience was you two, I could have. accomplish the I need everyone to slow down on this. It was released in like February. it's february It did poorly. You know, my enunciation is on point tonight.
00:23:44
Speaker
You know, I'm just AI tonight and I've submitted all my, just um've I've preempted all of the things you guys would say and I've entered in my own responses. I did see the extra fingers.
00:23:55
Speaker
Yeah. No, but i I want to say, Jeff, I'm sorry. I'm talking over you. No, no, no, no. I want to make it clear. 88% critics, 93% audience.
00:24:10
Speaker
Everyone who sees this film likes this film. It just came out in a shitty time. It came out after the possibly the worst Marvel movie yet. Captain America Brave New World which I did not see yeah we can talk about that some other time but it was like dud it was not engaging this movie we just slipped in incredible I hope it's having a Disney plus you know full appreciation but I have no idea I wouldn't know either cancel my subscription that's right you also canceled your opportunity at that point well
00:24:49
Speaker
Okay. All right. Sorry, Jeff. No, that's fine. I don't know if you're going to be able to hear this or not. So if you guys can't hear it, I need to know.
00:25:02
Speaker
Nothing.
00:25:06
Speaker
Are you testing like like that high-pitched sound that only young people can hear? Is that, think we're past that. can't quite hear 11,000 hertz anymore. can't i can't quite hear eleven thousand hertz anymore
00:25:19
Speaker
Yeah, that's a tough one. That's a tough one to get to.
00:25:25
Speaker
Jeff, while you figure this out... Yeah. Did you guys know that had I not made a game day change... of my lineup, I would now be the biggest blowout of the week holder, and I'd have basically secured myself $5. Instead, I benched Marks. I put in Garrett Wilson. he got zero. Marks got 15.
00:25:54
Speaker
I'm sorry, former Andy. You're long-winded, and you make the wrong decisions. Jeff, have you fixed the audio? um Yeah, I've got it fixed.
00:26:07
Speaker
I just ah and need 10 seconds. Okay. um I'll also announce that Nick Thunker now has the $5 prize for highest scoring player in a single week.
00:26:20
Speaker
Thanks to Jonathan Taylor's smash performance. He's 10 points more than the previous top scorer for the week, which was on Kegel's team in week one. I don't remember who it was.
00:26:37
Speaker
But also, more importantly, we were going to have a big asterisk here because Brian had the highest scoring player of the season in week seven. on his bench.
00:26:48
Speaker
So thanks to Thunk, now our current high scorer was where he was supposed to be in the driver's seat, taking him to a victory. Congratulations, Nick. I hope the $5 is all you win this season.
00:27:05
Speaker
Jeff, was that enough vamping?
00:27:10
Speaker
Yep.
00:27:15
Speaker
Matt's going to love this audio. We hear you. We hear you just fine. It was a sitcom with Ted Danson and Kristen Bell. We watched, it's one of those shows that had a really like interesting concept and then it found an audience and then I think the writers just kind of went,
00:27:35
Speaker
what do we do now we have an audience yeah didn't seem like yeah they they were gonna end it and then it got popular so they had to like me like and then they were like okay what do we do and we started the second season and it was just like weird and they clearly didn't know where they were going so we dropped it but that first season and it was good we enjoyed it would you recommend someone ajour is he Is he talking about the good place? And is he bad-mouthing the good place?
00:28:06
Speaker
Because I'm going to throw hands if he's bad-mouthing the good place. Like, I'm going to go to where he lives and and, like, teach him how to Ted Danson. That's... His forehead is going to be the size of Ted Danson's forehead. That's...
00:28:25
Speaker
oh This has been almost a month in the making. I think we're three days shy of a full month. Jerry, you did not disappoint.
00:28:37
Speaker
He was indeed talking about the good place. That that is the worst opinion i have heard about a TV show in some time. Okay. With that, with that in mind, you what's a TV show you bailed on after at least one season?
00:28:52
Speaker
When and why? ah Oh, ah House of the Dragon. ah We watched the first season and like a little bit of the second and then just kind of gave up.
00:29:05
Speaker
It was one of those shows where it was like I don't know if it was trying too hard or if like the first season was great. Like trying pretty hard. Yeah.
00:29:16
Speaker
um And it also seemed like they're like, Ooh, we have two seasons worth of material here, but that first season hit so well that yeah, the first season was great. um What's her name? Millie. Was it who's playing Supergirl right now?
00:29:33
Speaker
i'm she was amazing in the first season. i' say sure I can't remember what her name is, but whoever is playing Supergirl for the new DC was ah in the first season of house of dragon.
00:29:45
Speaker
Awesome. It was entertaining to watch. There was actual intrigue. You actually could root for people. And then by the second season, you're like, all these people are terrible. I want them all to die horribly.
00:29:58
Speaker
There's no reason to like any of them. They're just bad.

Speaker
and And I just started to not enjoy watching it anymore. Yeah. So, yeah, we we gave up. It's too bad. I love good fantasy, so Okay, Andy and Jared, just so you guys know, we are into extra time.
00:30:15
Speaker
um I'm checking the watch. Looks like we have somewhere in the neighborhood of five to six minutes of extra time going on right now. All right. We need to wrap up our six questions though really quickly.
00:30:27
Speaker
umminarical fast. Our questions. are are last level anyway
00:30:37
Speaker
A last question, Jared. Loofah, washcloth, hands, plastic, scrubby thing, or other?
00:30:45
Speaker
I mean, hands for the most part, but sometimes none. like Sometimes submarines just like get in and put the shampoo on and then hope it hits the right spots because I've got to get out of there in a hurry.
00:30:58
Speaker
Okay. Wow. That's the way that my son does it.
00:31:05
Speaker
Yeah, I never grew up.
00:31:08
Speaker
And he's five. um We shower too much as a species anyway. We do. Drying out all our skin.
00:31:19
Speaker
We do. Well, thanks, Jared. Oh, we got to score this one. What do you think, Jeff? We don't have like put the shampoo on and hope the suds find the right places. think it's a bonus five points. I'm pretty sure.
00:31:33
Speaker
is the worst. I forgot to give you a score on ah the House of Dragon one. um But it's a yes for me, Andy.
00:31:44
Speaker
He bailed on it. He gave a good reason. Yeah. I'm here for it. <unk> Correct. Correct. co Correct.
00:31:55
Speaker
And now, Jared, that has been... Five questions. Five questions.
00:32:07
Speaker
Oh, excuse me. Oh, my God. Yeah, we have we do. This has been a long show. We do have one more voicemail that came in, Andy. Jared, if you guys are. Wow. So it was just left during five questions. Yeah. So if you wouldn't mind. Yeah, I was just calling to say that I think I don't know what the Mandalorian is, but I think you should have been able carry a gun.
00:32:35
Speaker
I'll hang up with this.
00:32:38
Speaker
Yeah. yeah Very good. Yep. I could explain it if you wanted me to, but otherwise we could just let that one hang. I understood it.
00:32:49
Speaker
Okay.
00:32:51
Speaker
I'd love an explanation. My brain is an egg. um My son was a Mandalorian for Halloween and at his preschool, guns were not allowed.
00:33:04
Speaker
Yes. Okay. Right. So he was pretty pissed off about that. um So then we got him the dark saber and then they made a new rule just for him. The lightsabers are also not allowed.
00:33:18
Speaker
And he corrected them to say it's a dark saber, right? Yeah. Not technically a lightsaber. It's the opposite. But they did make him leave it at home.
00:33:29
Speaker
Did they call it the Anders rule?
00:33:33
Speaker
Uh, no, I don't know what they called it. Should have though. I'm sorry, but you know, that's close. My pronunciation is really, really. rough It's been a rough week, huh?
00:33:45
Speaker
Guys, thanks for playing five questions. What's his final score, Jeffrey? think it's like two, three, three and three, I think three and three. It's not a bad score, Jared. It's just the worst we've seen all season.
00:33:59
Speaker
That makes sense to me. That's par for the course for this league for me.
Fantasy Football Game of the Week Preview
00:34:04
Speaker
Hey, let's look at ah the game of the week. Last week's game of the week was Ecom versus Brian. I'm sure everybody paid close attention to the special matchup of the week channel.
00:34:15
Speaker
And you're looking at it now. Any thoughts on this matchup that started out looking much closer than it was going to be there? Their projection was about 14. Ecom was going to lose, and he lost by 40.
00:34:29
Speaker
four d Or is it 50?
00:34:34
Speaker
Yeah, that was bad. That was not his best showing.
00:34:40
Speaker
That's the 30-second warning, Andy. Thanks. Sorry, Mike. ah Looking ahead, the as I projected, the next game of the week will be Thunk versus Braum.
00:34:50
Speaker
ah Jared, Thunker's on an eight-on-nine game win streak. um b Brian's on a—he won his last one, but he wasn't winning before that.
00:35:02
Speaker
ah This is first against second place. Who do you think's going to take it? Oh, i don't know. Thunk's team is pretty solid.
00:35:13
Speaker
um if either of his receivers, though, doesn't play, they're both questionable to come into this one. i I'm to say this is going to be lot closer to 50-50 than people think.
00:35:27
Speaker
You know, Funk would have lost last week if Jonathan and Taylor had like one less touchdown, and he's on by this week. So I think this is the week it happens. so Go get him, Brian.
00:35:39
Speaker
Jeff? um good Good luck to you both. I have trade offers out to both of them, so I will have no opinion on that. Hey, Jeff, he's not going to poison the well before before the trade offers go through. I get it.
00:35:55
Speaker
Good economic I know there's not much time left, but I just want to point out, in addition to the stats I gave earlier, we got a new We got a new leader.
00:36:07
Speaker
um For what it's worth, Tim, you are the new highest scoring loser. Congratulations. Hopefully your 130 points wasn't in vain.
00:36:18
Speaker
You'll have a nice Abraham Lincoln in your wallet when all of a sudden done. Nice. Hey, that's pretty sweet. Jared, thanks for being on the show. We're we're at time. Sounds good. Thanks for having me.
00:36:35
Speaker
Jared, welcome back to the show. Hey, thanks for having me um Thanks for getting out of bed at 2 in the morning, but we just had to ask you this pressing question. It's actually 3 in the morning here.
00:36:47
Speaker
All right. but I don't know what Texas time you're on. Longitudinal time latitudinal time? i't i don't remember how that works, but you're the teacher.
00:37:01
Speaker
Garrett. Yes. ah The reason you're on this week. Do you know? Do you know why you're on this week's show? Because I am I am sandwiched between the two of you or I'm probably going to lose both games.
League Roster Moves and Success Strategies
00:37:14
Speaker
Oh, did you lose last week? i That's I've been losing a lot. Jeff, congratulations. I'm sorry didn't send you a card. I was projected to win.
00:37:27
Speaker
think I won five or six game losing streak. so You broke it. Broke it. Yeah. ah Jared, what went wrong? Oh, my God.
00:37:39
Speaker
i Moore. DJ Moore went wrong, as he as he always does. When I put him on my bench, he'll put up three touchdowns, and when I play him, he gets a goose egg.
00:37:51
Speaker
That he everything wrong with my team for the entire year. He's the metaphor of my team. it just not play it? ah He got bottom you got banged up a little bit and then sat out a bit and then came back in whole thing.
00:38:09
Speaker
Jared, was he on your bench in week nine? He was on my bench in week nine because the rest of the time he's been putting up crap. and I've been playing him before then. I'm like, oh, DJ Moore is supposed to be pretty good this year. Nothing. It's been all Rome the whole time.
00:38:26
Speaker
Then last week, the week that I didn't play him, they flipped it Right. you So I'm like, oh, maybe he's finally going to get numbers. And then nothing. Okay.
00:38:36
Speaker
Jeff, what was your strategy to put Jared down? And what what tips can I take from your performance to to keep the pod curse going? Yeah, um you should pick up a really fast running back ah that hadn't been starting but now is because the starter got injured.
00:38:53
Speaker
That's what I did. That's a good pick. Yeah. Good note. Thanks, Jeff. ah Sorry, Jarrett. um Jeff gave that advice to me, so you can't use it. ah You heard we have a record of it.
00:39:04
Speaker
You cannot take Jeff's advice that he imparted upon me. Okay? Got it. I will not find a running back and ands add him to my roster. and Fast. Fast running back. Well, it I won't add any running back to my roster. Do you have any roster moves left? are you Do you have?
00:39:22
Speaker
If you're going to do that, you better check the numbers. who's Who's leading the roster moves? Let's see. um In second place with 25 roster moves is Pug Life.
00:39:38
Speaker
Okay, not bad. it' not I don't see first place, though, I guess. I mean, 41, that can't be right.
00:39:51
Speaker
but You've made 41 roster moves? many is that a week? How many weeks have we been? Call me a roster. We're week 11. You've made four roster moves on average a week.
00:40:08
Speaker
And, Jared, look at the stats. You know, stats don't lie. That's true. They don't lie. Yeah. Just think about how many people you've locked on waivers.
00:40:22
Speaker
So that no one else can use them. Yeah. Oh, yeah. That's a strat. It's brilliant. I'll use it at the end. it and hey Jarrett, um thanks for being on the show and realizing you needed a quarterback and taking Aaron Rodgers while we were recording.
00:40:36
Speaker
Yes. I hope it works out poorly for you. i I'm sure it will. Rodgers has screwed over Vikings fans for so many years. I'm sure it'll do it again. Perfect. Hey, being on your team, hopefully it just keeps it going.
00:40:49
Speaker
He might get injured while he's on my team. I'm not wishing an injury. of course not.
